5 bedroom detached house for sale

A wonderful detached Edwardian house occupying a privileged position with its garden boundary adjoining both Bakers Park and the picturesque grounds of the National Trust’s Bradley Manor which are open to the public all year and feature some lovely walks along the banks of the River Lemon.

In the same ownership for almost 30 years, the property has been the subject of significant remodelling and extension to now provide a first-class individual home presented in immaculate order.

The house is approached over its own private brick paved driveway which provides plenty of parking as well as access to an oversized garage and adjoining car port. The gardens are a real feature, being secluded and fully enclosed with a gate directly into the park. There is a sleek, modern, paved terrace wrapping around two sides of the house which provides a superb outdoor entertaining space, with a few steps leading up to a further terrace and well-kept lawned garden beyond, adjacent to which is a garden store constructed in a similar style to the house.

The property is conveniently situated for Newton Abbot’s well-served and vibrant town centre with its excellent range of shops, businesses, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and more all within 600m walk with schools and the mainline railway station a little further.

Accommodation

Stepping inside, the interior is particularly light and airy with many rooms being double-aspect. The front door opens to a hallway with stairs to the first floor. Off to one side is a good-sized dining room with walk-in bay window and feature fireplace with marble surround, and archway leading through to the impressive lounge which is triple-aspect and has French doors to the adjoining terrace. Off the other side of the hallway is the kitchen with a selection of Californian Oak-fronted cabinets and an arch opening to a cosy breakfast area with fitted breakfast bar. Completing the ground floor is a small, plumbed laundry room with an integrated fridge/freezer and a useful boot room with door to the gardens. 

On the first floor the rooms are currently arranged as four bedrooms, a study which could be used as a fifth bedroom, and an up to the minute shower room with WC, vanity basin, and both rain and hand-held shower fittings. The principal bedroom is particularly roomy and has an internal dressing room with rails and shelving and window, and an en-suite bathroom with modern white four-piece suite including a bath and separate shower cabinet.
