This is a great detached bungalow set in a village location.
The property has a spacious lounge diner, a fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms, bathroom, gardens, detached garage, driveway parking and planning permission for a rear extension with three further rooms.
It is located in the much sought after and desperately pretty South Devon village of Abbotskerswell, full of history and character. It is situated between the market towns of Newton Abbot and Totnes yet tucked away from the hustle and bustle and conveniently located for commuters to all areas. Abbotskerswell offers a range of useful amenities, including a preschool and an excellent primary school, renowned Court Farm Inn, providing excellent food and beverages, village hall and a surprising number of other retail amenities, including a hair salon, beautician, veterinary centre, café as well as a beautiful church and sports facilities. More comprehensive facilities can be found at either Totnes or Newton Abbot, both with a mainline railway link to London Paddington and the north of England.

Entering the lounge diner, you notice how bright and airy the room is, with a large window overlooking the views to the front of the property and Patio doors to the rear garden. A feature fireplace becomes the focal point with a living flame electric fire keeping you warm on the coldest of a winters night. In addition there are two radiators for extra warmth and wood effect laminate floor runs through out. The dining area has space for a table and chairs and enjoys the views of the rear garden.
Alongside is the fitted kitchen with a range of wall and floor units with marble effect worktops & upstands, giving you plenty of storage and workspace. A corner cupboard houses the combination boiler, included is a built in fridge, a smaller table top fridge, an electric oven, an electric hob with extractor fan above and a black one and a half bowl sink.

A wrought iron gate opens into the South West facing rear garden, the enclosed garden can also be accessed by the patio doors in the dining room allowing you to enjoy the inside and outside together.
