Description
Located in the highly sought-after and tranquil area of Livermead, this beautifully presented three-bedroom semi-detached chalet bungalow enjoys distant sea views from both the front lawn and first floor. Renovated to a high standard in 2024, the property is offered with no onward chain and in turn-key condition, showcasing spacious and versatile accommodation throughout. Recent upgrades include a new Howden's kitchen, updated plumbing and bathrooms, complete rewiring with a new consumer unit, replacement radiators, upgraded double-glazed windows, and a full professional re-plaster and skim. Externally, the residence benefits from driveway parking for multiple vehicles, an integral garage, and a fully enclosed rear garden with a well-maintained lawn and patio area.
Situated in one of Livermead's most desirable locations, the property enjoys excellent access to the coastline and benefits from a regular local bus service. A selection of nearby facilities include a gp practice, convenience store, local shops, post office and a choice of cafés. Just a short stroll away, a public footpath leads into Manscombe and Scadson Woods, peaceful green spaces maintained by the Torbay Coast and Countryside Trust. The woods are interlaced with scenic walking and cycling routes that extend to the picturesque Cockington Village, home to a 450-acre country park, a serene water meadow trail returning to the seafront, and notable landmarks including the historic Drum Inn, charming manor house, traditional thatched cottages and tea garden.

The Approach
Approaching from Broadley Drive, a driveway extends alongside the front lawn to the property’s side entrance. The UPVC double-glazed door opens into a welcoming reception hallway, newly fitted with wood-effect flooring. Within the hallway, a cupboard discreetly houses the recently installed consumer unit, while a central heating radiator provides warmth. From here, doors lead to the third bedroom, living room, ground-floor bathroom, and the open-plan kitchen and dining area.
Heart Of The Home
The fully fitted Howden's kitchen comprises wall and base units with roll-edge worktops and aqua-board splashbacks. A breakfast bar extends from the rear counter, creating a natural division between the kitchen and dining spaces while offering additional seating. The kitchen is equipped with an inset Franke one-and-a-half bowl stainless steel sink with drainer, positioned beneath a large double-glazed window overlooking the rear garden. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, oven, and gas hob with extractor hood above, alongside a fitted washing machine. Space is provided for a tumble dryer and a freestanding fridge/freezer, while the gas boiler is neatly concealed within matching cabinetry. The dining area is well suited to family gatherings, comfortably accommodating a dining table, and enjoys direct access to the rear garden through double-glazed French doors. A useful under-stair cupboard offers excellent additional storage.
