4 bed detached house for sale

Old Newton Road, Kingskerswell TQ12

A unique and individual detached chalet bungalow in wonderful elevated position and enjoying a private and tucked away position.

Approached over a long private driveway sweeping up to the property which is shared with just one other home, ‘High View’ truly lives up to its name capturing panoramic views over green fields, rolling hillsides and much of Kingskerswell.

With its own gravel driveway and detached garage providing parking the property occupies a private setting with enclosed gardens on 3 sides with shaded terraces, well-kept lawns, extensive planting and areas ideal for entertaining and summer dining.

Although offering an almost semi-rural setting High View provides for excellent communication links. The coast at Torquay is almost on the door step with its chic marina and attractive bars and gastro pubs just a 3.5 mile dive. Torbay hospital is within a 2.5 mile drive and the well served market town with main line railway station around a 3 mile drive.

The village offers an excellent primary school, ancient church, various shops including a small supermarket and a hand full of first-class pubs/restaurants.

Accommodation

These include a guest cloakroom/WC with panelled shower cabinet which is also accessed on an en-suite Jack and Jill basis from a spacious ground floor double bedroom (four). A particularly spacious kitchen/diner extends to some 25sqm with space for a large 10-seater table and a kitchen area with a comprehensive selection of cabinets and integrated eye level double oven and grill and an inset hob. The real hub of the house is the spectacular open plan living room created by combining a number of smaller rooms to now provide a spacious and attractive room fully encapsulating the views and providing a wonderful space io entertain.

On the first floor, the part-galleried landing has extensive storage off and doors to three further good-sized bedrooms and a first-class family bathroom.

Information provided is for guidance only and is non-contractual. Although every effort is made to ensure accuracy, on occasion we rely on information from third parties. Where works have been carried out more than 15 years ago, it is unlikely that planning permission and building regulations documents will be available, as local authorities often only retain records for a limited time. You should also be aware that it is unlikely that works completed historically will comply with today’s building regulations. On agreeing to buy a property you should have it fully surveyed and ensure that your legal adviser follows up on any points raised by your surveyor. Your solicitor should confirm what’s included in the sale, and you should arrange tests on all appliances and equipment you are buying. Your legal adviser should check that all relevant permissions and certificates are in place. When documents are not available, for instance because documents are no longer retained by a local authority, or the company which carried out works is no longer trading, you should take advice from your solicitor on this. This is a common situation but it’s important to understand the implications. Room sizes ± 0.1m.
