With elegant lines and character features, this period terraced house is located in the heart of the highly sought-after well served village of Ipplepen. Clearly well loved and cared for over the years, the property would now benefit from a degree of modernisation and improvement, but provides the opportunity for a new owner to finish a home to their own tastes. One of the many noteworthy features of the home is its wonderful established garden which is of considerable size with a long expense of lawn, all privately enclosed, partly by ancient stone wall.
Ipplepen is situated partway between the historic Castle town of Totnes (approximately 5 miles) and the market town of Newton Abbot (approximately 4 miles) both with mainline railway stations, excellent range of shops, businesses and amenities. The village itself supports a vibrant lifestyle opportunity with many clubs and societies, and has an excellent range of village amenities including a modern health centre with pharmacy, primary school, village hall, park, tennis courts, bowling green, small supermarket, respected public house, coffee shop and more.
Accommodation
Stepping inside, the accommodation is presented over three floors with the central hallway on the ground floor accessed through an internal vestibule feature archway and door leading from the front to the rear of the house, the inner part having an impressive turning staircase with half landing and window providing plenty of light. At the front and either side of the central hallway are two separate reception rooms, currently used as a sitting room and the dining room, both of which have sash windows with double glaze sealed units and wooden shutters. Overlooking the rear is the kitchen with the basic range of cabinets and space for a breakfast table and an additional room, currently arranged as a utility room with French doors to the rear garden and having a useful cloaks/WC off.
On the first floor are two good sized double bedrooms, including the principal with two windows to the front which is the largest room in the house and could well have been used as the lounge in years gone by. An up-to-the-minute shower room/WC is also on this level.
Completing the picture is the second floor where there are two further bedrooms.
Gardens
Wonderful established level garden at the rear of a considerable size, partly enclosed by ancient stone wall and affording a good level of privacy.
