Near Silverton

Discreetly tucked away and sitting in three quarters of an acre of beautiful mature gardens, this spacious 1960s built, four bedroom detached bungalow is surrounded by serene Devon countryside. With everything orientated to face south, the property offers a real development opportunity in a quiet and private location but still just outside a thriving village full of amenities, and only 15 minutes from Exeter too.

 

Dropping down from the country lane and along the driveway, you’re met by the colour and expanse of the garden that envelops the property, and immediately appreciate that you’re in an idyllic spot. A parking area for multiple vehicles lies in front of the large double garage and walking from here, passing through the sun soaked patio area, you come to the front door. Stepping inside into the central hallway, bedrooms two, three and four lie to the west side, along with the ground floor bathroom. Heading to the east end of the property from the hallway, steps drop you down to the lower ground floor and the kitchen. Beyond, a unique set up presents the dining room and sitting room either side of a fabulous wood burner. From the sitting room, the outlook to the garden is quite spectacular and doors allow access to the garden too. Upstairs is where the main bedroom lies, complete with a huge ensuite and further small kitchen space / laundry area.

The setting is something really quite rare. The garden consists of two main areas: the lawn, shrubs and flowers that lie closest to the property but a pathway leads you down to a second area that opens up to provide a perfect vegetable garden, with stunning views across the adjacent fields.

 

A perfect balance of being just a few minutes’ drive from the community led village of Silverton but very much nestled amongst the peaceful and picturesque countryside. Silverton is located on the commuter friendly side of Exeter—as well as being handily located for access to Exeter airport and both Exeter St. David’s and Tiverton Parkway train stations—and is thought to be one of the oldest villages in Devon. It continues to be an extremely sought after village as it provides the fantastic combination of the ‘village lifestyle’ whilst also being well connected to the city of Exeter. Amenities in the village itself are exceptional, with a brilliant Doctor’s surgery, convenience store, post office, primary school and two pubs.
