Description
DESCRIPTION
Luscombe Maye is delighted to bring to market Butterdown Banks, an extended three-bedroom detached bungalow which enjoys a particularly large garden with panoramic far-reaching countryside views and off road parking for several vehicles, all being situated within a plot of approximately 0.35-acres.
The entrance porch has plenty of room for coats, shoes and wellington boots and opens into the main reception room, which houses a woodburner and large window overlooking the front of the property. A recent extension with vaulted ceiling and skylights has given the home a light and sociable kitchen-dining-living room, which enjoys doors opening onto the rear garden very much blending outside with inside. The kitchen area has matching wall and floor units with a composite worktop including a large breakfast bar, an integrated fridge and freezer plus there is space for a Range cooker. This room can easily accommodate a good-size dining table and sofa, making it a great space for entertaining. There is a separate utility area, which has a sink, plus space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
The home currently has three double bedrooms and there is planning permission in place which includes the conservatory/ sunroom on the side of the home to be altered to create an en-suite to the main bedroom and a snug/office which could also be utilised as a further bedroom space if required. The family bathroom has recently been upgraded and includes both floor and wall tiles, a bath with shower over, WC and sink.
To the front of the property there are two driveways offering off road parking for several vehicles and benefits from an electric car charger. There is also a tiered garden with a mixture of bushes and shrubs. A double garage attached to the home has up and over doors and is currently used as a large workshop and can also be accessed from inside the home, through the utility room. The garage has a hard base, power and lighting. At the rear of Butterdown Banks is a sizeable garden which boasts impressive and uninterrupted views over the South Hams and towards Dartmoor and Ugborough Beacon. There is a large patio space, which connects with the kitchen-living-dining room, a log store for fuelling the woodburner and further storage shed for the usual garden tools, as well as a lean to for extra undercover storage. Steps from the patio lead up to the lawn area of the garden, where there are also vegetable beds and plenty of space for outdoor furniture, barbeques and play areas.
