House For Sale £425,000
Castle Street, Torrington, Devon, EX38

A Georgian style pillared entrance with fine front door and brass fish door knocker, opens into the reception hall off which the principal reception rooms lead. The sitting room offers an imposing fireplace with multi fuel stove standing in the hearth. On the opposite side of the reception hall is a fine dining room being some 17’ in length having ornate cornicing, a ceiling rose and large fireplace with marble surround and mantle. The kitchen with its range of units and work tops has been in for a number of years and would benefit from being updated and once done would make a great space to cook and eat complete with existing larder and pantry. Off the kitchen is found a rear hallway giving access to the utility room, the rear garden, a playroom with cloakroom off and a part glazed door links back into the reception hall.

A straight run of stairs leads to the first floor split level galleried landing complete with stained glass window, from here you really get a sense of how much space is on offer in this property. The main bedroom is of a particularly good size having an ornate fireplace feature, painted sloping wood floors and ample room for wardrobe cupboards and other bedroom furniture. There are two further double bedrooms and an ‘L’ shaped bedroom that would work really well as a twin bedded room. In this part of the house is also found the bathroom with wash hand basin and deep bath with shower over and a separate WC. A connecting door from the landing leads to bedroom 5 with its layout would make an ideal suite having a potential dressing room/office, a bathroom with deep bath, WC and wash hand basin and a fabulous double aspect bedroom complete with stained glass, overlooking the garden on the western side. In fact there is a door that opens up to some wide slate topped steps that take you right into it.

Steps lead up from the rear hallway into the garden which is a lovely walled garden making the most of the sun’s orientation and laid in principal to lawn edged with stock borders with rose, eucalyptus, viburnum, apple and such like. Within the garden is also an ornamental pond, timber garden shed and two open side former stores from which the vendors have created a chicken run.

The garage is found in a block, a short distance from the house.

Under the present Vendors guidance, the property has had some updating including the installation of secondary glazing and part redecoration, but offers scope for more and once done would provide a very elegant lifestyle with high ceilinged room, strip pine doors, many character features and sun trap walled garden.
