A substantial semi-detached period family home, with five double -bedrooms, private gardens , ample parking and a self-contained, one-bedroom cottage
annex, in the sought-after village of Highweek, with easy access to the town of Newton Abbot.
A gated driveway with a laurel hedge, provides parking for at least five cars , and leads to a gated courtyard garden of block paving and c obbles, with stone edged beds of shrubs and bushes and to the entrance of this fabulous property. Inside, it is beautifully presented, spacious and light, with neutral décor and bags of character around every corner.
The entrance leads into a modern ki tchen with slate floor, solid -granite worktops , with elegant fi tted units in olive green, complete with under-cabinet and plinth feature lighting. Well -equipped too, a large range provides the excellent cooking facilities, with a wide extractor hood above and there is an integrated fridge and dishwasher. Open-plan to the ki tchen is the spacious dining room, with pine floorboards and filled with light from a wall of windows and French doors to the courtyard. There is plenty of room for eight or ten around a dining table and is perfect for any occa sion. Large, barn-style doors open to reveal a good-sized snug/games room with an oak-effect laminate floor, and doors to utility cupboards, one containing the condensing regular
boiler, providing the heating and hot water for the main property and the cottage.
A s tone-tiled hallway has a s tai rcase to the upper floors , with storage beneath. There is a larder cupboard and a large pantry for s torage of the groceries .
The s tudy is a fabulous room, with a beauti ful s tone fi replace between two windows providing views to the garden, making a wonderful feature. This room could be used as a sixth bedroom if needed. A guest sui te completes the ground floor, with a spacious and light double bedroom, built -in s torage and an
ensuite shower room, with a tiled floor, and blue -mosaic-tiled walls, containing an electric shower, WC and pedestal basin. On the fi rst floor there is a cosy si tting room, with a wood-burning stove sat on a chunky slate hearth, making a great feature, and wonderful with a roaring fi re on a dark winters eve. A door leads out onto a wrought-i ron gantry with s teps down to the private side garden, with a paved patio and a timber
summer house, with lights and power, making a superb versatile room for all seasons ; a s tudio perhaps . A door leads from the sitting room into a spacious drawing room, filled with light from dual-aspect windows and a fi replace is fitted with a living-flame gas fi re, making a great focal point for the room.
A door leads into the master bedroom suite, a spacious and light double bedroom, that has plenty of fi tted wardrobe space and a patio door leading onto a timber balcony, with a wrought-i ron balustrade and slate s teps down to the side garden summer house. An ensuite bathroom has polished -porcelain floor
tiles, part-tiled walls, and contains a white sui te comprising a bath with electric shower and glass screen above, a W C and a pedestal basin. The turning s tai rcase continues up to the 2nd floor landing, which has an airing cupboard, a large s tore cupboard and doors on either side to two further double bedrooms, both with built-in s torage, and one with a decorative period fi replace, dual-aspect windows and a wash-hand basin, with tiled splashback.
A door from the courtyard leads into the cottage annex, which is warm, light and beautifully presented. There is a double bed room, a fully-tiled wet room, with a shower, WC and basin, a modern living space with a light, tiled floor, a wood -burning stove, and a modern fi tted kitchen, with a fan-oven, hob and integrated dishwasher. There is a utility room with plumbing for a washing machine, and plenty of floor space for white goods , and another room, which is
ideal as a s tudy or a dining room perhaps . This annex is perfect for an elderly relative, or a family member requiring some i ndependence, or could be let commercially to provide an income.
Outside, the entrance courtyard has a useful garden store, with chunky barn doors and a path leads up the side of the cottage to the rear garden, which is a beautifully maintained, charming outside space, landscaped with rock-walled beds of plants , shrubs and flowers . There are areas of lawn , bordered by walls and a Leylandii hedge, with beds of bamboo, palms, fig and apple trees. There are a couple of timber sheds and a lean -to store, a fabulous outside
space to relax in the summer sunshine. Words alone cannot do justice to this gem of a property, a viewing is essential to fully appreciate all that is on offer.
