Just look at the location! Right in the heart of Down St Mary, a
pretty mid Devon village which isnt too far off the beaten track.
In fact, only a short distance away is the A377 giving great road
access and the stunning Tarka Line which links Exeter and
Barnstaple via rail is within easy reach too. Surrounded by
stunning rolling hills, its a bit of a hidden gem.
New House, as the name may suggest was a more recent build.
Completed in approx. 2007, its a great sized detached house,
boasting over 1250 sqft of accommodation plus integral garage which
is significant for a 3 bedroom home and this shows in the generous
room sizes throughout. The current owners have greatly improved the
house since their ownership with an internal renovation and an
overhaul of the rear garden. The house itself is well insulated,
all up to date with mains gas central heating a bonus for a Mid
Devon village , uPVC double glazing and is beautifully presented
with little for a new owner to do.
On the ground floor is a welcoming hallway with a useful ground
floor WC and then doors lead to the living room with its attractive
open fire, which runs front to back, with a window to the front and
double doors opening onto the rear patio. Theres a good sized
kitchen dining room which is a wonderful social space which again
opens onto the rear patio. Its worth noting that the garage is
adjacent to the kitchen and it maybe possible stp to knock through
to create additional living space or a utility room. A turning
staircase leads to the first floor landing with a fantastic study
area on the landing and built in storage. The first floor is also
home to the 3 bedrooms, all doubles and the master having its own
ensuite shower room and making the most of those stunning views,
what a great way to wake up!
Outside, to the front is an area of lawn and off road parking
for 2 3 vehicles and this leads to the attached garage with rear
pedestrian door. Theres access to the sides to reach the rear and a
useful store has been built to one side, creating additional
storage space. The rear courtyard garden is beautifully presented
with a mix of decking and paving and retaining sleeper walls to add
character and a softer feel. Its a great entertaining space and
accessible from the living room or kitchen, its very useable all
year round weather permitting! .
So if youre looking for a spacious house in a pretty Devon
village, one with mod cons and good room sizes, plus those
incredible views, the New House could be for you.
The property is being offered for sale with No Onward Chain!
