| Description |
A spacious detached five bedroom bungalow which has recently been updated and extended, set in a sunny plot exceeding half an acre, in a very quiet cul-de-sac. It is a 15 minute walk to West Hill Primary School and the village grocery store. School buses provide transport to the excellent secondary schools – King’s & Colyton Grammar, UK's top performing state Grammar School.
The property has PVC double glazing, a good sized hall, light and airy living room, dining room, office, wonderful kitchen/breakfast room and utility room. The new bedrooms both have their own fully tiled shower rooms. Gas central heating has been installed.
The bungalow has been extended on the eastern end, so that on entering the bungalow the original 3 bedrooms are to the right hand side of the spacious entrance hall. Turn to the left and you will enter the living room, dining room, study and through to the extremely large kitchen. From the kitchen there is a short passage which leads to the extended part of the bungalow, which consists of two bedrooms, two shower rooms and a super sized garage which could be converted into extra living space for inlaws. There is room to build a detached garage within the grounds. There is ample space to extend the bungalow further, to incorporate two families if required.
The layout means that when guests stay there is a lot of privacy for them, as they are in effect “next door”. It could be used to earn income from Bed and Breakfast guests, for providing accommodation for students from Sidmouth Language school or would be ideal for those who wish to look after elderly relatives or ideal for an extended family.
There is ample space for parking on the in and out drive. The gardens stretch to the rear and west of the property. In the rear garden there is a shed and large greenhouse, and the garden has been maintained by a professional gardener over the last 8 years. There is a large patio area with plenty of space for tables and chairs. Layout:
