5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Higher Furzeham Road, Brixham TQ5

Situated in one of the most sought-after roads in the ever-popular Furzeham area of Brixham, "Merok" is a stunning five-bedroom semi-detached period home that perfectly blends character, space and modern family living. Enjoying some sea and coastal views from the front elevation, rare off-road parking and an unexpectedly generous rear garden, this is a property that truly stands out.

From the moment you arrive, the home’s charm is immediately apparent. A welcoming entrance porch opens into a spacious hallway, setting the tone for the well-presented and thoughtfully arranged extended accommodation beyond. The comfortable lounge is positioned at the front of the property, featuring a square bay window that frames attractive sea and coastal glimpses towards Tor Bay. A log burner provides a cosy focal point, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere ideal for relaxing evenings.

Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen–dining–living space to the rear. Designed with modern family life in mind, this fabulous hub offers both style and practicality. High-quality kitchen units are complemented by striking Brazilian granite worktops and a matching breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include a fridge/freezer, dishwasher and built-in microwave, while there is space for a range-style cooker (available by negotiation). The layout easily accommodates a generous family dining table and a soft seating area, making it perfect for entertaining or everyday living. Bi-folding doors open directly onto the garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor spaces, while a feature lantern roof floods the room with natural light. A separate utility room leads off and also provides direct access to the rear garden, adding further convenience.

The first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. The front-facing bedrooms enjoy the added benefit of wide sea and coastal views, reinforcing the property's wonderful seaside setting. Each room offers flexibility, whether used as bedrooms, guest accommodation or home office space.

Occupying the second floor is a particularly spacious attic bedroom, complete with Velux windows that allow light to pour in and create a bright, airy feel. This room also benefits from its own en suite shower room/W.C., making it an ideal principal suite or private guest retreat.

Externally, Merok continues to impress. To the front, there is ample off-road parking and a rare and highly prized feature in this established residential area. A large patio flanks the rear of the house, providing an excellent space for outdoor seating and entertaining. The rear garden is a true surprise, offering a level lawn thoughtfully divided into different areas to suit a variety of uses. Well-stocked flowerbeds add colour and interest, while a shed and greenhouse are positioned towards the rear, catering perfectly to keen gardeners.

Combining period charm with contemporary enhancements, generous living space, coastal views and exceptional outdoor areas, Merok represents a rare opportunity to secure a substantial family home in one of Brixham’s most desirable locations just a short walk away from the scenic coastline, fishcombe cove and access to the bustling town centre and waterfront.
