Situated in a residential development of houses and bungalows in the heart of this thriving Mid Devon village, is this spacious 2 bedroom bungalow. The village has bus and rail services to Crediton/Exeter and Barnstaple and being one of the larger villages in the area, it also has a pub (with food, garden and letting rooms), a primary school and a shop/petrol station. The property has undergone a transformation during the current owners’ time here with lots of work on the gardens to make them more manageable and easier to enjoy. Now there’s a landscaped rear garden with seating and built in raised beds, retaining walls and drainage which has not only increased the useable space but protected the home too. The front garden is south facing and due to the planting and fencing, it offers a private lawn with an abundance of hedgerow plants and a lower “secret” garden with roses and other specimen shrubs and plants. Its “wild” feel is very manageable and attracts plenty of butterflies, bees and other beasts, perfect for pollination and a bit of a sanctuary. Internally, the bungalow is well built with solid walls under a tiled roof. Cavity wall insulation and uPVC double glazing help to reduce energy bills and the central heating is run on oil with an open fire in the living room. The room sizes are good with a large living room overlooking the front garden (south) meaning plenty of light. The shower room has modern fittings and a large walk in shower plus there’s a separate kitchen which also looks out to the front garden. Two double bedrooms give options and are found at the back of the property, adding to the privacy. A useful store gives additional space and also provides access to the front and rear gardens without going through the property. The garage is a good size (attached to neighbour) and there’s off-road parking for 4 vehicles on the drive. Agents’ Note: Some of the ceilings have been re-skimmed and subject to any offer made, the remaining ceilings could be skimmed prior to completion.
