About
This truly delightful four-bedroom period property is presented to a high standard throughout, offering spacious and well-appointed living areas, four double bedrooms, a separate study, off-road parking, a garage, and superb gardens.
The home is located in the sought-after Knowles Hill area of Newton Abbot. The accommodation begins with an entrance porch accessed via a recently fitted composite door.
This leads into the entrance hallway, which features engineered oak flooring that continues throughout the entire ground floor.
The hallway includes an obscure double-glazed side window, storage space beneath the staircase, and access to a downstairs WC with a low-level flush WC, pedestal wash hand basin, and an obscure double-glazed window to the front.
An internal glazed wooden-panel door opens into the spacious living/dining room—a delightful space with a double-glazed bay window to the rear and double doors leading out onto the balcony terrace, overlooking the superb garden and enjoying views across Newton Abbot.
The room continues the engineered oak flooring, and a key feature is the wood-burning stove with slate hearth.
Adjacent to the living/dining room is the superb modern fitted kitchen/breakfast room, finished to a high standard with a matching range of wall and base units, quartz work surfaces, mixer tap with integrated drainer, and an instant hot-water tap.
Built-in appliances include a large fridge, separate freezer, double oven/microwave, induction hob with extraction hood and lighting, dishwasher, and washing machine.
The oak flooring continues, and double-glazed windows overlook the front of the property, with a door giving access to the front courtyard.
A breakfast bar provides additional seating with space for stools beneath.
From the entrance hallway, stairs rise to the first floor, where the landing provides access to two spacious double bedrooms, both featuring double-glazed windows with superb views across Newton Abbot and built-in wardrobes.
Also on this level is a useful study with a double-glazed window to the front.
The immaculately presented and recently fitted bathroom comprises a pedestal wash hand basin, panel bath with shower, part-tiled walls, and an obscure double-glazed window to the front.
Adjacent is a separate WC featuring a low-level flush WC, pedestal wash hand basin, and another obscure double-glazed front window.
Stairs rise to the second floor, where a bright and spacious landing with a window provides plenty of natural light.
This level includes additional storage housing the boiler, a cupboard containing the tumble dryer, and two further double bedrooms, each with Velux-style windows offering pleasant views and storage space within the eaves.
Externally, the property boasts well-presented and well-maintained gardens.
To the front, there is an off-road parking space situated in front of the detached garage, which features an electronically operated door and power and lighting.
A gated side path with steps leads down to the front entrance, with additional storage beneath the garage—ideal for general storage or parking smaller items.
There is also a wood store and side access leading to the rear. From the living/dining room, the balcony terrace—finished to a high standard—offers lovely elevated views.
Steps lead down to a large patio terrace, creating an ideal area for outdoor dining and entertaining, complete with an outside tap.
Further steps lead to a generous level lawn bordered by colourful raised flowerbeds, two separate sheds, and a decked area surrounded by stone chippings and mature trees.
The gardens must be seen to be fully appreciated.
