4 bedroom detached bungalow for sale

For those in the know, Sand Down Lane is a very sought after location on the edge of the popular Mid Devon village of Newton St Cyres. With stunning views in both directions, the properties here command high values and it’s easy to see why. A quiet location with amazing views, in a village and just minutes from Exeter city centre. Boasting four double bedrooms and two shower rooms, this bungalow provides ample space for comfortable living. It occupies a wonderful plot of about a quarter of an acre, backing onto farmland and plenty of space to enjoy. There’s gas central heating, upvc double glazing and solar panels which generate power for this home and feeding an EV changing point too – any surplus is fed back to the grid and payment received.

Internally it’s well laid out and with an internal area of approx. 1366 sqft (127sqm) then it will appeal to a range of buyers. The 4 bedrooms can be used as bedrooms or they give flexibility to those with hobbies or work from home commitments. The living spaces are large too with the living room enjoying doors out to the large conservatory taking in those quite spectacular views. The kitchen/diner was fitted in the past few years with a bespoke gas Aga which is a real statement. There’s a rear utility room and 2 shower rooms, again adding to the space and flexibility.

Outside, the front garden provides a lovely open parking area with ample space for multiple vehicles, leading to the garage with electric door and an additional car port to the side. There’s lawn and paved seating areas as well as a fish pond and the views back towards the village and church. To the side (through the car port) is a gated entrance to the rear garden with a greenhouse, summerhouse and timber shed, all useful additions. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with hedging and established beds.

This exceptional property is being sold with no onward chain and really is worth a look.

NEWTON ST CYRES, between Exeter and Crediton is widely regarded as one of Devon's finest villages, with a gentle stream running through the middle under its ancient stone bridge, alongside the wonderful 15th Century church built in honour of the martyr St Cyres, there are few places which match this tranquil setting. Numerous circular walks of 1.25 to 7.2 miles are on hand and a visit to the beautiful 9 acre arboretum is a must. The new primary school is a fantastic addition & no village is complete without a pub and Newton St Cyres does not disappoint with the atmospheric Beer Engine, a popular watering hole on the Rail Ale Trail, a tour of pubs near stations along the Tarka Line railway between Exeter and Barnstaple. The recently opened Belluno Italian Restaurant is also one to visit and cheese lovers can indulge themselves at Quickes Farm shop, based half a mile west along the A377, the main road to North Devon. These outstanding features are supplemented by that iconic symbol of the English village, the cricket pitch. The crack of leather on willow fills the air when the village team play in the summer months. Footballers don’t miss out either - there are two well-maintained pitches, home to Newton St Cyres FC.

DIRECTIONS: For Sat-Nav use EX5 5DE, as you enter Sand Down Lane from the A377, continue along and Pineta will be found on your left, marked by a Helmores Board.
