Diptford, Totnes

DESCRIPTION

Luscombe Maye are delighted to bring to the market this exceptional four-bedroom detached bungalow, occupying an elevated position within the village of Diptford and enjoying far-reaching panoramic views across the surrounding countryside towards Dartmoor and Ugborough Beacon.

Beautifully renovated by the current owners, the property has been transformed into a stylish contemporary home, offering spacious single-storey living finished to an excellent standard throughout. Flooded with natural light and designed with modern family life in mind, the property combines generous proportions with a practical and versatile layout.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the stunning open-plan kitchen/dining room. A contemporary kitchen is complemented by a substantial central island, integrated appliances and extensive worktop space, while two rooflights and large windows flood the room with natural light. There is ample space for both dining and relaxed seating, creating an impressive entertaining space that seamlessly connects with the garden.

The separate sitting room offers a cosy yet elegant retreat, centred around an attractive gas fireplace, while French doors open directly onto the rear terrace, effortlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.

The principal bedroom is generous and peaceful, complete with fitted wardrobes and a beautifully appointed contemporary en suite shower room. Three further spacious double bedrooms provide excellent accommodation for family or guests. A second en suite, modern family bathroom, separate cloakroom and well-equipped utility room ensure the property is perfectly suited to modern family living.

Outside, the rear garden has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of its enviable position. A generous paved terrace provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, while steps rise to a level lawn where uninterrupted views stretch across the rolling South Hams countryside towards Dartmoor and Ugborough Beacon. Whether enjoying a morning coffee or an evening sunset, the outlook is truly spectacular.

To the front, a gravelled driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a double car port with an adjoining store. Gated access to both sides of the property offers further practicality.

Beautifully presented throughout, this outstanding bungalow offers an exceptional combination of contemporary style, generous living space and breath taking countryside views.
