Brakefield, South Brent

Christopher’s South Hams are delighted to market this 3-bed detached bungalow, tucked away towards the end of this popular cul-de-sac.

Description

With a separate porch, roomy entrance hall and cloakroom inviting you inside, the accommodation neatly divides the living spaces from the bedrooms.
A spacious reception room welcomes you embracing natural light from its dual aspect deep-set window and double doors to the south-facing conservatory.
The well-appointed galley kitchen also leads into the rear conservatory and overlooks the very pretty, south-facing garden. Each of the three bedrooms benefit from built in storage and there is a modern shower-room to complete the accommodation.
Outside, the bungalow sits above an attractive lawn with a pathway leading to the front door. The adjacent driveway has space for 2 vehicles in front of the single garage (with light and power connected).
A gate between the garage and bungalow invites you the back garden which is primarily laid to level lawn and there is a greenhouse in situ as well. A traditional Devon bank frames the rear of the garden with lush, open farmland beyond.
With panoramic views across Dartmoor taking in Brent Torr and Western Beacon, the feeling of space and airiness in this home is superb. This much cherished family home is ready for a new generation to fall in love with it and viewings are highly recommended.
