The current owners have carefully enhanced the property over the years, including a garage conversion in the early 2000s to create additional living accommodation. More recently, the kitchen has been upgraded and opened up to provide a modern, sociable living space, alongside refurbishment of the family bathroom. The rear and side elevation windows and doors have been replaced within the past five years and the flat roof has also been renewed, offering reassurance to prospective purchasers.

The accommodation is well balanced and versatile, comprising a bay-fronted dining room to the front aspect and a spacious open-plan kitchen/living room ideal for modern family living. The former garage now provides a ground floor bedroom with en-suite facilities, perfectly suited for guests, multi-generational living or home working. A separate utility room completes the ground floor.

To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom.

Externally, the property benefits from a private driveway to the front providing off-road parking. The enclosed rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and complemented by an attractive patio area, creating an ideal space for outdoor entertaining and family enjoyment. To the rear of the garden is a useful storage shed, with a further enclosed storage area beyond. Additional benefits include under-house storage and a crawl space, providing further practical storage solutions.

This is a superb opportunity to acquire a well-maintained and adaptable family home in a highly sought-after location.

Excellent transport links are also on hand, with regular buses, nearby rail access, and quick connections to the South Devon Highway — making trips to Exeter or beyond a breeze. Nature lovers will also appreciate the proximity to the stunning Cockington Country Park, offering 460 acres of scenic woodlands, gardens, and lakes to explore.
