Shallowford Close, Eggbuckland, Plymouth PL6

Lawson are delighted to market this spacious, much-loved semi-detached family home in Eggbuckland.

An inner door leads to the dining hall, which has a window to the side elevation, a large understairs storage cupboard, and carpeted stairs to the first-floor landing. A folding door leads to the kitchen, which is fitted with a matching range of base and high-level storage cupboards, post-formed roll-top work surfaces, a one-and-a-half bowl acrylic sink and drainer with mixer tap, tiled splashbacks, a gas cooker point, and plumbing for a washing machine. The kitchen opens through to a breakfast room with sliding doors to the rear garden, a window to the side elevation, and wooden panelling.

From the dining hall, a doorway leads to the sitting room, a spacious room with a fireplace with a wooden surround, stone back panel and hearth, and a large window to the rear elevation overlooking the garden.

Carpeted stairs ascend to the first-floor landing. A doorway leads to bedroom one, which has a window to the rear elevation and a fitted wardrobe. Bedroom two is a good-sized double with a window to the front elevation and fitted wardrobes. Bedroom three is a small double with a window to the rear elevation and wardrobes with sliding mirrored doors.

The family bathroom is fitted with a low-level WC, pedestal wash hand basin, panel-enclosed bath, tiled shower cubicle with an electric shower, a window to the front elevation, and an airing cupboard housing a wall-mounted Worcester combination boiler.

Externally, to the front of the property, there is a large garden with huge potential to create additional parking.

The rear garden enjoys a southerly aspect, and has a flagged patio leading down to a lawn with flower, shrub beds and borders.

The property also benefits from PVCu double glazing, solar panels, gas central heating and is being offered to the market with no onward chain.

Eggbuckland


Prior to the Second World War Eggbuckland was a small village a few miles north of Plymouth. During the reconstruction of Plymouth many new suburbs were built and during the 1970s the areas in between and surrounding the old village were all developed. The development of the A38 just south of Eggbuckland in the 1980s lead to the area becoming very popular with commuters. The present church of St Edward, was constructed in 1470. The village was held by the Royalist Cavaliers during the Civil War against the Parliamentarian Roundheads and was badly damaged. Widey Court was the headquarters of Prince Maurice during his siege of Plymouth, and was visited by the King. During the 19th century the area was host to new Palmerston Forts built as part of a northern defence line around Plymouth. Known locally, for the provision of both primary and secondary schooling, such as; Eggbuckland Vale, Austin Farm, Widey Court and St Edwards Primary Schools, along with Eggbuckland Community College.
