3 bedroom detached house for sale

THE PROPERTY A rare opportunity to purchase a fabulous, detached family home with three double bedrooms, a garage and workshop, parking, a southeast facing garden and fabulous sea and estuary views, in the popular seaside town of Teignmouth.This wonderful property, constructed in 1947, is beautifully presented inside and out, retaining many period features such as picture rails, fireplaces, high ceilings, solid-wood floors, and Bakelite door handles, complimented by stylish decor throughout, and it feels warm and inviting with gas central heating and double-glazing. A viewing is essential to fully appreciate all that this stunning property has to offer.The accommodation briefly comprises, on the ground floor, an entrance porch, a hallway with a staircase rising to the first floor and a cupboard beneath, a spacious, light and airy living room with an elegant fireplace and living-flame gas fire, and with sliding patio doors that allow access to the terrace and provide a wonderful view of the garden, the Back Beach, The Ness, and the sea beyond, a separate dining room with a possibly original tiled fireplace, perfect for a dinner party or family celebration, and a stunning, modern kitchen that has plenty of stone worktop and cupboard space, an eye-level double-oven, a ceramic hob, and an integrated dishwasher and fridge/freezer. There is a utility cupboard with plumbing for a washing machine, and a rear lobby with a convenient ground-floor cloakroom, a broom cupboard and a boiler room with a combi-boiler, and a rear porch with a back door.Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a spacious double with triple-aspect windows providing a stunning view of the sea, the estuary and Shaldon Bridge, and there are two further excellent double bedrooms, one with a wardrobe above the stairs, a large cupboard off the landing provides extensive storage, and completing the accommodation is a tiled bathroom containing a bath, a separate shower, a pedestal basin, a WC and a chrome heated towel rail.Outside, the back door leads to patio doors into the spacious workshop that has a worktop and sink, and a door into the side of the single garage that has lights, power, barn-style doors to the driveway, and a disused shower room on one side. This has potential to convert into auxiliary accommodation, to generate a seasonal rental income perhaps.The garden is beautifully maintained and faces southeast enjoying plenty of summer sunshine. Great for entertaining there is a terrace of composite decking with a stainless-steel balustrade, a large lawn with plants, shrubs and a palm, a timber shed for storage, and in a corner a fishpond in a beautifully tiled enclosure that make a fabulous, alternate venue for drinks with family and friends. Beside the entrance is another lawn with beds of spring flowers, and a driveway with space for two cars beside the garage, and additional parking is on-road if required.
