House For Sale £850,000
A 4 Bedroom Individual House
Designed by the local architect Dawes Dingle in 1950's for him and his family to live in and featured in the Ideal Home Magazine October 1956, this property is full of individual design aspects both internally and externally. Whilst the property has been modernised over the years, the current owners have been mindful to keep and maintain the property to reflect its origins. There are four bedrooms, 1 with a luxury en suite, a modern kitchen/breakfast room with feature aga, sitting room, dining area, bathroom and shower room. The gardens are very private and surprisingly large, offering many different areas to enjoy.
Laid out over one level the accommodation has been cleverly designed with the living areas to the centre and the bedrooms on three extremities, giving a good degree of privacy and separation to the bedrooms, and access to their own area of the garden, or terrace. Steps lead up from the road and the garage to the original front door and the entrance lobby, off which is the cloakroom/w.c. The sitting room is a lovely light room thanks to the dual aspect and wall of windows overlooking the garden. The original fireplace has a gas living flame gas fire, and original 1950's handmade tiles to one side. A well places low level window gives sea view from the sofa to the harbour area and Corbyn Head. The dining area is open to the sitting room with a pleasant view over the surrounding area. The kitchen/breakfast room has a range of modern units above and below the quartz and granite work surfaces. A gas fired Aga performs cooking duties along with an induction hob, there is also space for a dishwasher, washing machine and fridge/freezer.
Bedroom 1 has a range of fitted wardrobes and a door that accesses the main garden terrace and a luxury en suite, bedroom 3 is a double bedroom and the family bathroom are accessed from the living room. Bedroom 2 has access from the entrance lobby, with sliding doors opening to its own garden terrace with a sea view. Bedroom 4 is of the vestibule beyond the kitchen and makes a great guest room with a dressing room or childs bedroom and access to a shower room nearby. A door leads to a private courtyard area.
Often referred to locally as The Sculpture House thanks to the two large metal sculptures at the front of the house. The front garden, consisting of terracing and lawn, is home to the second oldest tree in Torquay - a Field Maple. A single garage is accessed off the road from where steps lead to the front of the property. The spacious rear gardens are very private and secluded and interspersed by trees and shrubs, off the rear of the house is a large terraced area surrounded by lawn, several walls serve to clearly divide the garden into rooms. At the rear of the plot is a wooded area where there is a garden shed and a large lean- to greenhouse adjoins the house.
The property occupies a much sought after residential position within the Lincombe area of Torquay within approximately 1 mile from Wellswood village with its array of boutique shops and restaurants. Torquay town centre and deep water marina are both within approximately half a miles distance. The property is offered with vacant possession and internal inspection is highly recommended to appreciate the accommodation on offer.
