House For Sale £575,000
This wonderfully presented home occupies a tucked away spot on the fringes of Bondleigh Village.
The property itself offers very comfortable, light and airy accommodation throughout. The present vendors have left no stone unturned and managed to capture a blend of old and new, with oil fired central heating, double glazing throughout and many original features including exposed stone walls, an open fireplace in the snug and separate wood burner in the living room.
The property benefits from a ground floor en suite bedroom, ideal for guests or dependent relatives. Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, enjoying views across the garden.
Outside is as much of an attraction as the dwelling. The property is accessed via a private road shared with only three other households. There is no shortage of parking and the advantage of a large workshop/Garage measuring 21’6ft X 17’0ft.
The garden can be access either side of the home and is quite simply breathtaking being landscaped to provide several areas to be enjoyed depending on the time of day. There is a complete sense of serenity listening to the wildlife and not to mention an island!
There a small bridge across from the garden leading to a secluded sheltered area where you can shut off and enjoy a drink of your choice. Its very clear there has been a lot of care and attention to detail throughout this home and that extends to the garden being organically and carefully managed to sustain the natural ecosystem of abundant insect life, multitude of birdlife, and mammals, including hedgehogs, that feed in and call the garden their home.north tawton is a small town, built alongside the banks of ‘The River Taw’.
