A spacious, detached bungalow situated on an exclusive small development on the edge of the village, overlooking farmland. Good village amenities and quick access to Exeter, Honiton, the motorway network and Tiverton Parkway Station (London Paddington in 2 hours).

This superb bungalow was built in the early 1990's by renowned local builder, Brian Middleton, as one of five properties on the favoured Bishops Rise development, within easy reach of the village centre.

The bungalow is of traditional construction and offers spacious, well appointed accommodation, which is in good order and benefits from uPVC double glazing, oil fired central heating and an array of photo voltaic (solar) panels on the rear roof, providing plenty of electricity.

On entering the property, the generous reception hall lies in the centre of the accommodation, with two large storage cupboards, and nicely divides the bedrooms on the right and the living rooms to the left. The reception rooms comprise a large sitting room, with a feature brick fireplace and hearth with a gas fired 'wood burner', perfect for cosy winter evenings. A sliding patio door leads out to the garden and double, glazed doors to the adjoining dining room, with a window overlooking the garden and fields beyond, with a sunny, southerly aspect. The kitchen/breakfast room is used for everyday dining, with space for a small dining table and chairs.

The kitchen is fitted in white, with an integral ceramic hob, extractor hood and double oven, with further space for a dishwasher and fridge/freezer. Beyond, the utility room is fitted in a similar style with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. Overlooking the pretty garden, and making the most of the sunny southerly aspect, there is a double glazed sun/garden room, which is suitable for all year round use and to one side, gives useful, covered access to the double garage.

The bedrooms are at the front of the bungalow with two large double rooms, both with a range of fitted wardrobes and the principal bedroom with an en suite shower room. The third, single bedroom is currently used as a study, also with cupboard storage. The main bathroom is attractively tiled and fitted with a white suite with a shower over the bath.

The bungalow is situated within a large plot with mature gardens, brick paved parking to the fore and a large double garage, with space for additional storage or a workshop if required.

A brick paved path leads to the left of the bungalow to the rear garden which enjoys a fine southerly aspect and is a sun trap throughout the day. Paved patio gives way to a raised terrace of garden with intervening gravel and paved areas and an array of flowering shrubs and plants. The raised terrace has a pergola frame with seating beneath and a beautiful wisteria over. Beyond the garden there is sloping farmland - the village sledging field when it snows!

Tenure: Freehold
Council Tax: D
