Harcombe Lane East, Sidford

Built in 1934, this attractive family sized detached home occupies a pleasant position on the northern fringes of the Sid Valley and enjoys fabulous westerly views of the surrounding countryside. Harcombe Lane East lies on the outskirts of Sidford, within a few minutes walk of a good range of local amenities and The Byes. There are regular transport connections to the town centre and Esplanade which is 2 miles distant.

The property, which has been extended, has been superbly maintained and retains many original features including bay windows and panelled doors. The accommodation briefly comprises a covered porch with pitch tiled roof above a wooden front door. The front door opens to a versatile reception space which has been used for several purposes through the current owners tenure including a study, music room and reading area. Beyond this space lies a hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and access to the remaining rooms on the ground floor. There is a spacious sitting room featuring a charming fireplace with composite hearth and surround with inset wood burning stove and a deep bay window with a glazed door opening onto the rear patio and gardens beyond. The dining room, which is another generously sized reception space, adjoins the living room and also has a deep bay window with glazed door providing access to the rear. Both rooms enjoy a delightful outlook over the rear gardens and beyond towards Core Hill and the surrounding countryside. There is a kitchen/breakfast room which has an extensive range of base and wall units in addition to three storage cupboards, including a pantry store. There is another bay window overlooking the front with distant views towards Trow Hill in the east. Beyond the kitchen is a lobby to a cloakroom and utility cupboard. Beyond the lobby area is a passage way with doors to both the front and rear gardens and a side door to the double garage.

The first floor offers four double bedrooms, a family bathroom and an en suite shower room. The master bedroom is a large double room with a bay window overlooking the rear. There is a fully tiled en suite shower room comprising a corner shower cubicle with thermostatic shower unit, pedestal wash basin, low level wc and heated towel rail. Bedroom 2 is another large double bedroom with a good selection of fitted wardrobes and a bay window overlooking the rear. Bedrooms 1 and 2 both enjoy spectacular westerly views through the Sid Valley and beyond to the surrounding countryside. Bedrooms 3 and 4 overlook the front and beyond towards Trow Hill in the East. The landing has a window over the stairs and an airing cupboard housing a modern Worcester combi boiler. The family bathroom is fully tiled and comprises a panelled bath, separate shower cubicle, pedestal wash basin, low level wc and heated towel rail.

The property is approached through a five bar gate onto a brick paviour driveway which was laid in January 2022. The driveway offers ample room for parking and turning which provides access to the garage and the front door. A bank and established hedging, footed by a stone wall provides privacy to the front of the property. The rear gardens can be accessed via either side of the property and through a covered passage next to the garage. The westerly facing rear gardens are superbly kept, featuring a patio area which stretches across the width of the property before stepping down to the lawn. The patio is a perfect space for entertaining through the afternoon and evening and enjoys fabulous views. The gardens are enclosed with mature hedging and fencing and there are a beautiful array of plants and shrubs including a pair of productive apple trees. A vegetable patch is found at the bottom of the garden with a useful garden shed to the side.

A truly wonderful family home in a popular residential area. Early inspection recommended.
