House For Sale £400,000
Standing on the upper reach of the popular Bradley Park Road, close to the heart of St Marychurch, this DETACHED BUNGALOW sits within a generous plot with ample driveway parking and single garage. A loved home to our clients for 19 years, the property affords spacious accommodation with versatile three bedroom design. The bright and airy principal room faces a southerly aspect, and the kitchen leads through to the conservatory overlooking the mature, private rear garden.
The bungalow is enviably positioned a short saunter to the vibrant pedestrianised shopping precinct boasting a wide selection of independent traders and the national chain stores of Co-Op and Sainsbury's. A few minutes walk further is the picturesque Babbacombe Downs, where the renowned funicular railway takes passengers between the shingle beach of Oddicombe, linking to the neighbouring Babbacombe Beach with fishing pier and Cary Arms boutique hotel, spa and restaurant.
OWNERS INSIGHT
"Time seems to have flown by quite swiftly for my husband and I, enjoying 19 years at the bungalow. My husband is a very keen gardener and spent countless hours meticulously tending the plants and flowers, especially his roses which he took great pride in, although sadly his deteriorating health over recent years has prevented him from keeping up his passion. Bradley Park Road is perfectly situated for the local shopping precinct, Churches, and medical centre. We don't play golf, but for those that do it is only a short distance on nearby Petitor Road, with the beautiful coast paths leading from Petitor a little further. Time has now caught up with us, and I intend to stay local to St Marychurch, downsizing to a smaller apartment."
