Gilbert Avenue, Teignmouth, TQ14

This impressive one of a kind residence, in a league of it’s own, stands in a secluded position with the most wonderful and private outlook backing on to a nature reserve. Architect designed for the current owners, the property offers spacious and bright accommodation arranged over three floors making this a spectacular forever family home. With underfloor heating throughout and a beautiful and tasteful living room where each carefully selected colour and design mimic the lush outlook from the decked balcony/terrace, this room is a haven of peace, nature and tranquillity. This is a truly lovely and unique detached property.

Stepping into the bright and spacious entrance hallway with tiled flooring, stairs rise to the upper floors and there are doors off to the principal rooms, with double doors opening to the beautiful living room.

The living space opens to a decked balcony/terrace, immediately drawing the eye to the fabulous outlook to the rear over the nature reserve and is completely private and unoverlooked. The tasteful decor beautifully complements the outlook with the use of green tones and natural wood designs. There is a log burner housed in slate hearth fireplace with wood mantle making this a warm and cosy space and French doors open to a generous decked terrace with balustrade and glass panels where regular birdsong can be heard and when lucky, wildlife can be spotted. A stream also runs through the nature reserve which can be heard from the house and gardens making this a truly relaxing and serene spot. A door from the living space opens to the kitchen.

The kitchen/breakfast room again enjoys the same private outlook over the nature reserve and is a bright space with further windows to the side and a glazed door opening to the side of the property where the front and rear gardens are easily accessed. With a range of cream base and wall units with worktop and tiled splash backs and matching pantry cupboards, there is also space for a cooker and further appliances. A matching breakfast counter offers additional seating and further storage and naturally divides the dining area which is large enough for a family dining suite. The Baxi boiler is hung on the wall.

A separate utility room offers further space for appliances and has plumbing and space for a washing machine with a glazed door to the other side of the property, again easily accessing the front and rear gardens.

There is a generous and bright separate dining room for guests and entertaining which overlooks the front of the property in addition to a versatile study/office/hobbies room also with front aspect.

The master bedroom suite is a very generous room overlooking the rear over the nature reserve and is extremely private. A door opens to a separate dressing room with window with the same beautiful outlook and there is an en suite shower room with shower cubicle with Triton shower, low level WC and wash hand basin set in counter with storage below. There is a heated towel rail, extractor and obscure glazed window.

The family bathroom comprises corner jacuzzi bath, separate shower cubicle, pedestal wash hand basin and low level WC. There is a useful airing cupboard, heated towel rail, extractor and obscure glazed window.
