Canterbury Close, Ivybridge

Christopher’s are pleased to offer to market this well-presented detached family home. Set in a popular cul-de-sac close to the centre of town, Canterbury Close is also perfectly positioned between the pretty lake and grounds of Filham Park as well as the stunning Longtimber Woods.

Description

A storm porch gives access to a central entrance hall (with storage) that invites you to a spacious sitting room with fireplace currently housing a gas effect fire under an attractive mantle. This leads to the semi-open plan dining room with double doors overlooking the large rear garden. Also at the back of the house is a modern kitchen and utility room with space and plumbing for appliances as needed as well as a downstairs cloakroom. With a light and airy circular flow between these rooms, this home offers a delightfully sociable space. Boasting a second reception room, currently used as a family room, this property offers flexible living where this could be used as a second sitting room, study or even 5th bedroom. Upstairs there are 4 bedrooms, three of which benefit from built-in wardrobes. The master has an ensuite shower-room and there is a separate family bathroom as well.
Outside an area of lawn bordered by a mature hedge gives way to a driveway with parking for 2 vehicles and a side pedestrian gate welcomes you to the rear garden. The enclosed private garden enjoys a south-westerly aspect and with both lawn and patio, this is a delightful space perfect for entertaining family and friends. A large timber workshop (built by Toby Sheds in Newton Abbott), with light and power connected also provides useful storage measuring approximately 10ft x 12ft. A charming home and viewings are highly recommended.
