House For Sale £325,000
A fabulous and deceptively spacious mid-terraced character cottage with five bedrooms, a balcony and a courtyard garden, with views over the popular market town of Newton Abbot and surrounding countryside. Conveniently located in Highweek, it is only a short walk to the local schools and the town centre with its shops and amenities.
Arranged over three floors this unique property provides spacious and versatile accommodation for a family, and it oozes period charm and character with many wonderful features including thick stone walls, fireplaces, exposed timbers and an original cast-iron range. It is beautifully presented with stylish decor throughout and feels warm and welcoming with gas central heating and double glazing and has recently had a new boiler and electrical rewire. A viewing is essential in order to fully appreciate all that this superb property has to offer.
A gate leads into the front garden with gravel and a wall-edged bed of flowers and shrubs. The front door leads into an entrance hallway which is carpeted, with a staircase rising to the first floor and a couple of steps down into a fabulous family bathroom. The bathroom has an age-worn flagstone paved floor, an original cast-iron range from days gone by, and a modern suite comprising an elegant rolltop bath with a shower attachment, a pedestal basin and, around a corner, a WC.
A spacious living room has plush carpet underfoot and French doors leading to the front garden and a second set into a separate dining room extension, which is carpeted and filled with light from triple-aspect windows, perfect for a dinner party or a family celebration.
A door leads into a rear hallway where there is a large walk-in wardrobe providing an abundance of clothes storage, and stairs lead down into a wonderful kitchen/utility which has plenty of light from a glaze door to the porch and a window with a seat beneath. A range cooker provides the excellent cooking facilities with an extractor hood above, there are bespoke kitchen cupboards providing storage for pots, pans and groceries, and floor space for an upright fridge/freezer, and the utility area has thick pine worktops, more bespoke fitted cupboards, a Belfast sink that has a mixer tap with a flexible rinse nozzle, and space with plumbing beneath the worktop for a washing machine.
A door from the kitchen leads into a porch which has a durable vinyl floor and a door to the garden where outside there is a small patio with decorative screens, making a nice south-facing space for sharing a bottle of wine with loved ones. There is right of way access through the garden and a gate leads through railings into a handy storage area where there is a shed on the end of a neighbouring property, providing useful storage.
A staircase from the inner hallway leads up to the first floor where there is the master bedroom, a fabulous double with a high vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, an exposed stone feature wall, plush carpet underfoot and windows and a glazed door onto a balcony, from where there are fabulous views over rooftops to the rolling Devon countryside beyond. There are three further light and airy bedrooms on this floor, two doubles, and a single which is currently used as a study, ideal for those working from home. The landing has painted exposed woodwork and leads to a dressing room and into a shower room which contains a modern rain shower with an auxiliary showerhead, a WC, and a pedestal basin, and a built-in cupboard containing the recent condensing combi-boiler which provides the central heating and hot water on demand.
A narrow and steep turning staircase rises up to the top floor where there is a further double bedroom with a vaulted ceiling, plush carpet, exposed timbers and a dormer window offering plenty of natural light and fabulous views over the town and countryside beyond.
Parking is available on-road at the front of the property or nearby.
