About
Situated in a highly sought-after location in Paignton close to local shops and just a short stroll from Preston Beach, this delightful character home offers a wonderful blend of period charm, history, and convenience.
Dating back to 1918 and having been lovingly cared for by only three owners throughout its lifetime, the property retains a wealth of original features while providing comfortable accommodation for modern living.
Approached via a pathway and small walled front garden with mature shrubs, the home immediately creates a welcoming first impression.
Inside, the entrance hallway showcases original tiled flooring and benefits from useful understairs storage.
The hallway leads through to the impressive double bay-fronted lounge/dining room, a bright and spacious living area full of character, featuring exposed oak beams, an attractive brick fireplace, and a warm, inviting atmosphere.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of matching wall and base units, ample worktop space, and room for appliances, while a charming sunroom overlooks the private rear courtyard garden and provides a peaceful spot to relax.
The sunroom also houses the combi boiler. Adding to the property's unique appeal is the original milking shed, offering useful storage and a fascinating reminder of the home's heritage.
Upstairs, the first-floor landing, which provides access to the loft via a hatch, leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms, all enjoying plenty of natural light and character features, together with a family bathroom fitted with a bath and shower attachment, wash basin, WC, and heated towel rail.
Outside, the rear courtyard garden provides a private and tranquil setting, enhanced by mature plants and shrubs, making it an ideal space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply unwinding.
Combining period features, historical charm, and a fantastic coastal location, this beautifully maintained home presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking character and convenience in equal measure.
Early viewing is highly recommended.
