Sold by James Taylor-The Agency UK Teignbridge… A spacious detached modern 5 bedroom/2 bathroom (1 en suite) family home with large sunny south west facing level lawned garden on a quiet & small cul-de-sac in the sought after village of Ipplepen. Double garage & driveway parking. Potential to extend STP.
Situation
Thorn Orchard is a quiet and small cul-de-sac of only 6 homes dating from 2001 located within a short distance of the centre of Ipplepen, a sought after village located between Totnes and Newton Abbot in south Devon. The village has a comprehensive range of amenities including a convenience store, post office, primary school (OFSTED Good), two churches, pub, medical centre, sports field and village hall. There is always plenty going on in the village for anyone wishing to participate. Fermoys farm shop, garden centre and cafe is just outside the village as is Dainton Golf Club. The coastline of Torbay and Torquay deep water marina are within a short drive, as are the rugged hills and tors of Dartmoor National Park. There are mainline rail links to London in both Totnes and Newton Abbot and there is a regular bus service to both towns.
Description
Built in 2001 with attractive rendered and stone clad elevations this detached home offers spacious accommodation and occupies a large level plot on a small and quiet cul-de-sac. Accommodation extends to around 120 sqm (excluding garage) including 4 double bedrooms (1 en suite) and family bathroom to the first floor. On the ground floor is a spacious entrance hall, 5th bedroom or study, kitchen/breakfast room, sitting room, dining room and a cloakroom/WC. The entire plot is broadly level with a lawned front garden and adjacent driveway proving parking for 4 cars and leading to the detached double garage. To the rear of the house is a large enclosed lawned garden with a sunny south-westerly aspect and a sheltered terrace between the house and garage. Given the size of the plot there is plenty of potential to extend the house in the future if required subject to planning regulations.
Accommodation
The front door is sheltered below a storm porch and opens to a generous entrance hall giving access to the ground floor rooms. The kitchen/breakfast room has a lovely view over the garden from the window above the sink with a range of storage units above and below the wood-effect work surfaces with inset stainless steel sink and drainer. To one side of the room is a breakfast bar with space for stools below. Equipment includes an inset gas hob with extractor over, electric double oven and grill. There is space and plumbing for a dishwasher. At the other end of the kitchen is a useful utility area with further storage and space for washing and drying machines. A door opens to the rear garden area and a terrace between the house and garage.
The sitting room is of a good size and with a tilt and slide patio door and a further window allowing in plenty of light and providing a great view over, and access to, the large level garden. The fire place is fitted with a multi-fuel stove with a slate surround and hearth, and wooden mantle. A separate dining room has a bay window to the front of the property, and there is useful 5th bedroom or study on the other side of the hallway with a window to the front aspect. A ground floor cloakroom/WC is accessed off the hallway and there is a useful understairs cupboard.
A turned staircase rises from the hallway to the first floor landing off which are four double bedrooms. The main bedroom has built-in wardrobes to one wall and a recently made over en suite shower room, part tiled with a heated towel rail, shower cubicle and wash basin. Two windows give a view to the front aspect. Bedroom two also has a view to the front and a built-in wardrobe. Bedrooms three and four have a view to the rear aspect over the garden. The family bathroom has also been recently made over and is part tiled with a modern white suite with chrome fittings including a bath, WC, washbasin plus heated towel rail.
Outside
The generous plot is broadly level with driveway parking for 4 cars leading to the detached double garage. A paved path leads to past the lawned front garden at the centre of which is a mature tree. There is gated side access to the rear between the house and the garage.
The back garden is unusually generous in size and in the main laid to lawn with a mature tree towards the centre, and is enclosed by wooden fencing. In the sheltered area between the house and garage just off the kitchen is a paved and decked terrace with plenty of space for garden furniture, ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining. Given the size of the garden there is plenty of scope to extend off the rear of the house or the kitchen side, or both (subject to planning) whilst still retaining a good size garden.
