About
This linked detached home has been a much-loved family residence for the past ten years and enjoys a private position within a quiet cul-de-sac.
Beautifully presented throughout and clearly well maintained, the property offers flexible living space, thoughtful improvements and an impressive rear garden, all within a highly convenient location.
Upon entering, you are welcomed into a useful porch, perfect for coats, shoes and additional storage.
An inner door opens into a generous versatile reception area, currently arranged as a dining room with a snug seating space.
From here, there is access into the partially converted garage area, which provides further flexibility and benefits from a door to the rear garden, access to a convenient downstairs shower room, and a further door into the remaining garage storage, which retains its roller shutter door.
To the rear of the property is the extension, now forming a superb main living area.
With slate flagstone flooring, a feature log burner and bi-fold doors opening onto the patio, it is a wonderfully light and airy space that connects beautifully with the garden and is presented in excellent order.
The kitchen is arranged in a practical galley style, offering ample cupboard and worktop space, along with a breakfast bar overlooking the garden. Upstairs, the landing leads to three bedrooms.
The principal bedroom overlooks the rear garden and includes fitted wardrobes. Bedroom two is a further double bedroom, also with fitted wardrobes, and bedroom three is a generous single room.
The three piece suite bathroom completes the accommodation. Externally, the property continues to impress.
A driveway to the front provides off-road parking and leads to the partitioned garage, while a small fish pond adds character to the approach.
Side pedestrian access leads to the rear garden, which is undoubtedly a standout feature. A large patio spans the width of the house and beyond this sits a substantial outdoor heated swimming pool.
A brick-built pump house, currently used as a workshop, offers excellent storage, while raised borders add maturity to the space.
To one side, a lawned area with a summer house completes this generous and sociable garden. Proceed on the A39 towards Lynton.
