House For Sale £595,000
STUNNING GEORGIAN GRADE II LISTED HOUSE - A very handsome 5 bed family home located near to St Mary's Square with ample parking & level gardens.
St. Monicas is a fine example of a grade II listed Georgian house constructed in circa 1790. The property has been sympathetically maintained by the current owner with all character features retained. The property is located in a favoured residential hamlet near to St Mary's Square with its pretty Parish church and open parkland around a collection of a local pub, eateries and shop with sub post office.
The area will prove very popular with those wanting to be part of a lovely community with great schools on the doorstep including Churston Grammar school and easy access into the main town and Fore Street leading to the harbour and water's edge. Brixham itself has so much to offer with many amenities located in the town, from great clubs for football, rugby, tennis, bowls, and many more. There is a good gymnasium and sports hall located in the Brixham College grounds, an indoor swimming pool, and seawater lido.
Brixham is surrounded by AONB park and farmland with the South West Coastal Path skirting the perimeter of the town, enjoying some of the most breathtaking coastal scenery. The area is ideal for families, those looking for a great central base to explore the town and surrounding areas, and offers direct links to the South Hams with neighbouring Kingswear leading to Dartmouth via ferry in the adjacent town.
The property enjoys a great amount of off road parking on a gravel hardstanding to the side of the property, accessed through the pretty period painted cast iron gates. The front is framed beautifully by the old limestone walls finished with complimentary cast iron railings and gate opening to the front door. The property is iconic because of its handsome symmetrical Georgian frontage but also because of its magnificent spring flower display with a very well established lilac Wisteria framing the front door beautifully.
The front door opens up into a spacious hallway with a good size living room on the right hand side. A stunning room with many period features and enjoying a light and bright dual aspect, and finished off with an inset wood burning stove. On the opposite side of the building there is a good size formal dining room with a study just off.
The lower ground floor houses a spacious kitchen breakfast room, with french doors opening out onto the rear terrace, a good size walk in pantry, a utility and boot room also opening out onto the rear garden via french doors, and a bathroom comprising of both a bath and walk in shower cubicle. A convenient area for those coming in from a day in the garden.
On the first floor the property has three spacious double bedrooms with use of another large family bathroom. This room houses, in separate airing cupboards, the hot water cylinder and gas boiler (serviced annually) . On the floor above there are two further good size bedrooms bringing the total to five double bedrooms. If a sixth bedroom was required you could utilise the study as a comfortable double bedroom also.
Outside, to the rear, there is a great size really handy large garden lean to shed which is perfect for housing the patio furniture and all the garden tools. The garden benefits from an impressive grey sandstone patio which sweeps along the shaped lawn, and is perfectly placed to enjoy the setting afternoon sun making this an ideal spot for al fresco dining. There is a further patio area at the garden's mid point which is framed by the pretty limestone walls that run along the property's perimeter. The rest of the garden enjoys lovely level lawns, a beach hut style shed, and raised planting borders.
Internal viewing is a must to appreciate this magnificent family home.
