4 bed detached house for sale

Abbey Rise, Okehampton EX20

Perfectly set up for families and accommodating multi-generational living via the hard-to-find split-level configuration, this spacious and versatile 4 bedroom home has nearly 1,800 square feet of total floor space spread across 3 floors.
There is the potential for single-level living on the ground floor which would suit an elderly relative, and the separation of the bedrooms on the first floor from reception spaces on the lower ground keeps noisy play of children or loud music of teenagers away from the rest of the family relaxing in the lounge downstairs.
Another key family-friendly feature is the easy and safe walk to St. James CofE Primary School via a cut through path from Abbey Rise. As well as shortening the distance, this also allows families to avoid the busy main road when walking to school.

Accommodation: The main living spaces of the home are located on the lower ground floor – the approximately 18’ x 17’ living/dining room is filled with light and leads onto the enclosed rear garden via two fully glazed sliding doors, perfect for outdoor entertaining on warm summer evenings. Beyond this you have a practical dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room and a utility area with generous built-in storage.
The ground floor has a study as well as a spacious double bedroom and shower room on the same level, really helpful for an elderly relative living with the family. The study could provide a separate living space for that relative, or of course would be perfect for home working. This level also includes the integral double garage
Up on the first floor is where the majority of the sleeping accommodation can be found. The principal bedroom is a spacious double with en suite shower room, and the two further double bedrooms share a family bathroom.

Outside: Glazed sliding doors lead out from the living room and kitchen on to the enclosed rear garden. A paved patio runs along the rear of the house with space for a dining set to allow indoor-outdoor living, and the rest of the space is mostly lawned, with shrub borders and beautiful ornamental red maple trees. The garden wraps around the side of the house, where you can find a useful garden shed. A pedestrian gate at the other side of the house gives stepped access to the lawned front garden and driveway, where there is parking for 4 cars in addition to the two spaces in the double garage.

Location: The property is located in the vibrant town of Okehampton, tucked away in a quiet location and within walking distance of the town’s amenities including 3 supermarkets and a wide variety of independent shops and services. St. James CofE Primary is an easy and safe walk, and Okehampton College secondary school can be reached in under 20 minutes. A rail link provides hourly connectivity to Exeter and on to the main Penzance to London Paddington line, and the A30 corridor is on the doorstep. The city of Exeter offers an extensive commercial and retail centre as well as additional road and air links.
