The front door is accessed underneath a lovely arch and opens into the hallway, which has stairs leading to the first floor on the right and leads to all downstairs accommodation. On the left at the front is the sitting room with a feature fireplace providing the perfect focal point to the room, along with a large bay window overlooking open greenery at the front. The dining room plays host to another original fireplace, reinforcing the charming nature of the home, while it overlooks the sunny rear garden. Completing the downstairs space, the functional kitchen has an array of wall and base cupboards and drawers, worksurface areas, an inset stainless steel sink/drainer and space for a range of appliances including a fridge/freezer, washing machine and electric cooker with gas hob. A lobby area at the end of the kitchen has a door leading out to the garden, as well as access to a useful larder cupboard.

Rising up the stairs, the landing presents access to each of the bedrooms and the shower room. This comprises of a WC, wash hand basin and a walk in shower enclosure.

Also like the sitting room downstairs, this considerable double room is illuminated by a large bay window. Completing the accommodation is the third single room, an ideal office or nursery. No.14 is a well cared for home, having been in the family for over 70 years, much loved by all and ready now to be passed onto an excited new owner.

Outside & parking

An attractive green area sits in front of the home, creating a pleasant open space. A brick wall border to the front allows for a pleasant front garden with raised flower beds and a path leading up to the front door.

To the rear, a hard standing area adjoins the back of the house itself, while there is also an adjoining lean-to/greenhouse, as well as further external storage and separate, adjoining brick build store which houses a redundant WC. A small brick wall acts as a divide to a neatly laid lawned area with an abundance of raised flower beds, mature shrubbery and established plants for decoration. Each side is enclosed and bordered with fencing, one side of which is brand new, and a path leads up to the top of the garden where in the corner is a useful storage shed and a gate for pedestrian access from the rear.

Location

Every day amenities are within just a few minutes' walk, while both Ashleigh CofE Primary School and Our Lady's Catholic Primary School is a few hundred yards up the road and the well regarded Park Community Secondary School is also walkable in around 20 minutes.

Along the A361, Tiverton Parkway train station with fast services to London Paddington can be reached in approximately 45 minutes, as can the M5 network and beyond, also from Junction 27 at Tiverton.
