There is an hourly train service to Exeter, with connections to national destinations from Exeter St. Davids.
Nearby are superb local beauty spots where one may enjoy walking, riding and fishing. The shopping area contains a bank and supermarkets, including Waitrose, as well as many interesting locally owned shops. Primary and secondary education is well catered for in local schools. The recreation ground and park contains, amongst other things, a covered heated swimming pool. Most sports are available including 18-hole golf course, squash courts, indoor rifle range and thriving rugby and soccer clubs. The cathedral city of Exeter lies 22 miles to the East with an abundance of high street stores and the region's main airport.

A unique, individual, detached bungalow, built in 1992, by sellers, who until recently, lived there from the completion of its construction.
The property is very well- built and offers the prospective purchaser the opportunity to buy an excellent home.

The ground floor is completed throughout, however, the first floor, although virtually finished, does require some minor works to complete, and then signing off with Building Control.
The accommodation, which is in good order throughout, comprises of an entrance porch, with inner door opening to a spacious hallway, with large storage cupboard and a further airing cupboard, and doors leading to a spacious L-shaped, dual aspect kitchen/dining room, with a matching hand-made range of wall and floor mounted kitchen units and a good-sized dining space. There is an adjoining side porch/utility with stable door to side, hanging space for coats and space and plumbing for appliances. A further door leads to the cloakroom, with WC, wash hand basin and the boiler for the central heating and hot water.

Returning to the hallway, further doors lead to a spacious, dual aspect sitting room, with double doors to the rear garden and a brick-built fireplace with gas fire. There are two ground floor bedrooms, one currently being used as a study, and a ground floor bath/shower room.
Moving to the first floor, a staircase from the ground floor leads to a large landing area, which as previously mentioned needs completing. Part of this area had been designed to accommodate a first-floor bathroom, if so desired. Doors lead to three spacious rooms, which could be used as bedrooms, subject to Building Regulations Approval.

All three rooms are light and bright, with windows and skylights, and all have doors to the eaves area, ideal for storage. Room 3, as we describe it on the floorplan, also has an adjoining dressing room or potential ensuite.
Moving to the outside, the property is approached via a private lane, with just one other property, which leads into a gravelled driveway, providing off-road parking for several vehicles. There is a large, south-facing, rear garden, with an area of lawn and patio, a number of trees & bushes, two ponds, a greenhouse (3.63m x 2.53m) and a storage shed, currently in need of repair.

The remainder of the garden is currently uncultivated however, offers a great deal of potential for the keen gardener. There is outside lighting, power points and outside tap.
The garden offers a high degree or privacy and the entire plot measures just under ¼ of an acre.
