Cherry Meadow, Cheriton Fitzpaine, EX17

There are refurbished bungalows, and then there are homes where someone has taken the opportunity to do the job properly. No. 4 Cherry Meadow very much falls into the latter. This detached bungalow sits on a good-sized, level plot in a quiet cul-de-sac in Cheriton Fitzpaine and has undergone an extensive programme of works that goes far beyond new decoration and a smart kitchen. The roof has been stripped and renewed, floors lifted and insulated, internal walls and ceilings replaced, and new windows and doors fitted, alongside new electrics, plumbing and heating and modern levels of insulation. The relevant works have been signed off under Building Regulations, and the result is a beautifully finished home that retains the advantages of its established village setting and generous plot, but with the comfort and efficiency that comes from knowing so much of what sits behind the finishes has also been renewed.

The layout has been reconfigured with modern living in mind. Two good double bedrooms sit at the front of the bungalow alongside a stylish new shower room, while the living spaces have been positioned to make the most of the garden at the rear. The contemporary kitchen/breakfast room is a particularly lovely space, with sleek low-profile worktops, under-cabinet lighting and plenty of room for a dining table. An integrated oven and hob, dishwasher and fridge freezer are all included, while clever pocket doors allow the kitchen to be kept separate from the living room or opened up so the two spaces work together when friends or family are around. The living room then opens directly onto the south-facing garden, creating an easy connection between inside and out. New carpets and flooring have been fitted throughout, and everything feels fresh, light and properly considered rather than simply cosmetically updated, making this a home you can move straight into without inheriting someone else's list of jobs.

Outside, there's ample parking for 2 or 3 cars on the newly re-laid block-paved driveway together with a secure garage with lighting and an electric power supply. The level, south-facing rear garden offers a really pleasant balance of patio and lawn with established beds and two useful sheds. The patio immediately behind the bungalow provides a natural place to sit out or entertain, while the garden beyond offers enough space to enjoy without becoming a burden to maintain. Cherry Meadow itself is an established residential cul-de-sac within Cheriton Fitzpaine, a thriving Mid Devon village with its primary school, community shop, pubs, doctor's surgery and active village community. For anyone looking to downsize, simplify life or simply find a smart, efficient detached home without compromising on outside space, parking or village life, No. 4 makes a very compelling case. It's ready to move into and is offered with no onward chain.
