Detached house for sale

Newlands Park, Seaton, Devon EX12

Impressive 4 bedroom detached 1950s home in an elevated cul de sac position on the western side of Seaton, enjoying lovely sea and countryside views, updated interiors, re landscaped sizeable gardens with a raised sun terrace, and flexible accommodation with annexe potential.

This impressive, detached property, constructed in the 1950s, is positioned in an elevated setting on the west side of Seaton within a quiet cul de sac, allowing the house to enjoy lovely, far reaching views towards the sea and surrounding countryside. The current owners have carried out a series of improvements, including internal and external redecoration, new flooring throughout, the installation of a multi fuel stove, and updates to both the kitchen and utility room. Some of the first floor layout has been reconfigured, including the addition of an en suite.

The rear garden has been re landscaped to incorporate a sizeable sun terrace, carefully designed to make the most of the property’s outlook and providing an excellent vantage point from which to enjoy the coastal and countryside views. The house offers light, spacious and well presented accommodation throughout, with the benefit of uPVC double glazing and gas fired central heating. The layout also provides flexibility, with the ground floor offering potential for an annexe arrangement if required. This property must be viewed internally to be fully appreciated.

An overhead canopy porch leads to the front door, which features a decorative glazed panel and opens into a welcoming entrance hall. The hall retains its original wood strip flooring and provides access to the main ground floor rooms.
The living room is a bright double aspect space with windows to the front and rear, along with two additional side windows. The front outlook takes in the gardens, and the room has been updated with new wood effect gloss flooring. A fireplace fitted with a recently installed multi fuel stove forms the focal point.

Double doors from the hallway open into the sunroom, which has a newly fitted roof incorporating two skylights. With windows on all sides, this room makes full use of the views across the garden and towards the sea. It includes wood effect flooring, and a door leading directly outside. Folding doors connect the sunroom to the dining room, which continues the same flooring. This space enjoys further rear garden and coastal views and includes twin part glazed fitted cabinets flanking a fireplace with a coal effect electric fire. A door links back to the entrance hall, where there is deep understairs storage and access to the downstairs WC with washbasin and cabinet. The kitchen is of good size and has been fully updated with new cabinets and worktops. It includes a large range style cooker with five burners and extractor hood, a dishwasher, freestanding fridge, a one and a half bowl sink, and additional storage. Wood effect flooring continues throughout. A door leads into the utility room, which features a Belfast style sink, washing machine and shelving. From here, an open archway leads into a rear hallway with external doors to both the front and rear of the property. The hallway also provides access to the garage, currently used as a home office but easily reinstated as it retains its electric up and over door. A fully tiled shower room lies off the hallway fitted with a corner shower, WC and washbasin. Beyond this is a versatile additional room, suitable as an occasional bedroom, study, or gym, with a rear window overlooking the garden and towards the sea.

Stairs rise from the entrance hall to the first floor landing, which has part panelled walls and windows to the front. There are three well proportioned bedrooms on this level. Two include en suite shower rooms with WCs and fitted wardrobes, and both enjoy views across the garden and out towards the sea. The third bedroom has deep under eaves storage, along with a further deep walk in linen cupboard which has steps and a sliding door to a storage area and further steps leading up to the loft.

All first floor rooms have been recently refloored, with matching wood effect flooring in bedrooms two and three and gloss wood effect flooring in the main bedroom. From the landing, a further door leads to an airing cupboard housing the hot water tank. A further door opens to the family bathroom which is fitted with a white suite including a double ended bath, WC, bidet and washbasin set into a vanity unit, all complemented by tile effect flooring.

Outside:

Twin brick pillars provide access onto the block paved parking area in front of the garage, with the paving continuing across the front of the house to the front door. To one side at the front is a slightly raised garden area laid to lawn with surrounding flower borders. The paving extends along the side of the property, where further raised garden areas lead through to the rear.
At the back, a large wraparound paved sun terrace sits either side of the sunroom, positioned to take full advantage of the views towards the sea and surrounding countryside. The generous garden is mainly laid to lawn with a variety of flower and shrub borders, along with apple, pear and plum trees. To one side is a partially covered seating area and three useful, good sized garden sheds. The garden is well screened from neighbouring properties, providing a good degree of privacy throughout.
