Hingston Road is an attractive period home positioned in a popular residential area of Babbacombe close to Cary Park local schools and everyday amenities.
The current owners purchased the property with the intention of creating their long term family home and have already completed a considerable programme of improvement and extension. Due to an unforeseen change in circumstances the property is now being sold in its current condition with some plastering flooring decoration and final kitchen installation work still required.
Much of the difficult and costly work has already been undertaken and the property presents an excellent opportunity for a buyer who is prepared to complete the remaining improvements to their own specification. Materials currently at the property that relate to the unfinished work will be left for the new owner where appropriate.
The house retains a good deal of its original period character beginning with an impressive entrance vestibule featuring traditional chequered flooring original decorative tiling a stone archway and the original entrance door.
Beyond the vestibule is a spacious reception hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and access to a recently installed cloakroom and WC.
The separate lounge is a beautifully proportioned reception room with a large box bay window providing plenty of natural light. A feature fireplace creates a strong focal point while wall lighting and period proportions add to the character of the room.
The main feature of the property is the substantial open plan family room created through an extensive rear extension. This impressive space has been designed to accommodate a generous kitchen dining area and informal family seating space making it ideal for modern family life and entertaining.
The kitchen is centred around a large quartz topped island with an integrated downdraft induction hob. There is an extensive range of fitted cabinetry together with an integrated microwave fan assisted oven dishwasher full height refrigerator and full height fridge freezer. A composite sink is complemented by brass effect fittings while a dark anthracite designer radiator and recessed LED lighting complete the contemporary appearance.
A large roof light introduces excellent natural light into the extension while dark anthracite uPVC windows and French doors provide a strong contrast to the lighter kitchen finishes and open directly onto the rear garden.
Although the principal kitchen installation is largely complete there are areas requiring final finishing. These include elements of flooring plasterwork decoration cabinetry and fitting. This has been reflected within the asking price and allows the next owner to complete the room to their preferred standard.
On the first floor the landing provides access to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a generous double room while the remaining bedrooms offer flexibility for children guests or home working.
The bathroom has been modernised and is fitted with a panelled bath and shower over vanity wash basin WC heated towel rail contemporary tiling and herringbone style flooring. A useful built in laundry cupboard is positioned on the landing.
