An Attractive Detached Bungalow in a Delightful Countryside Setting

Occupying a peaceful and highly desirable position within the sought-after hamlet of Ashmill, this beautifully presented detached bungalow enjoys a quiet and friendly setting with far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside towards the picturesque River Carey. Backing onto farmland and surrounded by some of Devon's most attractive rural scenery, the property offers an enviable lifestyle, ideal for families, retirees and those seeking a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Having been cherished by the current owners for the past ten years, the property has been significantly enhanced and thoughtfully improved throughout to create a stylish, comfortable and highly efficient home with notably low annual running costs. The immaculately presented accommodation centres around a superb kitchen/dining room, perfectly suited to modern family living and entertaining, whilst the welcoming sitting room features a charming wood-burning stove set within a characterful stone fireplace with timber mantel over.

The well-balanced layout continues with a centrally positioned family bathroom and four bedrooms, comprising three generous double bedrooms and a further single bedroom, offering flexibility for growing families, visiting guests or those requiring a dedicated home office.

A particular feature of the property is the wonderful sunroom, which enjoys an abundance of natural light and provides the perfect vantage point from which to admire the beautifully maintained gardens and surrounding countryside.

Externally, the property is equally impressive. A generous driveway provides ample off-road parking for several vehicles and leads to a single garage. The wrap-around gardens are undoubtedly a standout feature and have been lovingly created by the current owners to provide a true gardener's paradise. Enjoying a sunny aspect, the grounds have been expertly landscaped to incorporate expanses of lawn, an attractive timber decking area ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, together with a colourful array of established flowers, shrubs and planting. Winding pathways lead to a number of private seating areas, allowing enjoyment of the sunshine throughout the day whilst taking in the peaceful rural surroundings.

The location is particularly appealing for families, with a secondary school nearby and a convenient school bus service available from the village. Residents also benefit from a traditional village pub and excellent access to an abundance of countryside walks and cycle routes right from the doorstep. For outdoor enthusiasts, the renowned activity centre at Roadford Lake, offering sailing, watersports and a wide range of recreational activities, is approximately 15 minutes away, whilst the popular North Cornish coastal resort of Bude can be reached in around 25 minutes.

Combining beautifully presented accommodation, exceptional gardens, a peaceful rural setting and excellent access to local amenities and outdoor pursuits, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a superb home in one of the area's most desirable locations. An internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all that this wonderful property has to offer.

For those wishing to travel further afield, the A30 is about 20 minutes away and provides a direct link to the M5 near Exeter. The North Cornish Coast is some 16 miles, whilst Roadford Lake is within a couple of miles with its great watersports and fishing opportunities.
