Introducing Woodpark, an attractive detached bungalow which was originally constructed in 1928 and stands proudly in the centre of a sizeable plot with wrap around gardens and far reaching countryside views. Available for sale with no onward chain, Woodpark has been hugely loved by its current owner who has been the proud custodian since 1983 and is well kept throughout, but would benefit from updating.
Description
This characterful home reflects the craftsmanship of its era, with a well-balanced layout, generous proportions, and an abundance of natural light throughout through large windows. An attractive veranda spans the entirety of the front elevation and provides a sheltered terrace to sit and enjoy the peaceful gardens and wonderful countryside views.
Upon entry into the bungalow through the front door, a bright and welcoming space greets you which our client currently uses as a dining area with lovely views across the gardens. An arch leads through to the central hallway and two further arches allow for natural light to flood he property. Located at the front of the bungalow is a cosy living room with feature fireplace and delightful countryside views. Adjacent is a formal dining room, again with a feature fireplace, window to the side and a useful storage cupboard which houses the hot water cylinder. Just off of the dining room is the kitchen which comprises a range of base units and provides space for appliances including cooker and a fridge/freezer. The kitchen enjoys windows to the side and rear overlooking the gardens and there is a useful breakfast bar area. Next to the kitchen is a useful utility room with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, then just off of the utility room is a handy WC. There are three double bedrooms within the property, one at the front with superb views across the gardens and surrounding countryside, and two at the rear. Each room enjoys useful fitted storage cupboards and large windows. Finally there is a shower room which comprises walk-in shower, toilet and basin.
The property also boasts a large loft space which is ripe for conversion, subject to planning permission.
Situation
Positioned in the heart of vibrant and sought-after village of Bittaford, Woodpark enjoys a peaceful yet convenient setting with outstanding countryside views and easy access into both Ivybridge and to the nearby A38 dual carriageway. There is a bus route directly outside of the property, providing easy links to the city of Plymouth and other areas across the South Hams. Bittaford boasts a popular local pub, known as the Horse & Groom, which is well regarded and provides a variety of local ales and good food. The nearby town of Ivybridge offers an abundance of local amenities with a bustling high street and a variety of shops, restaurants, cafes and other facilities. Ivybridge Leisure Centre sits centrally in town and boasts two indoor swimming pools, a fully equipped gym, squash courts and other sporting facilities. Ivybridge also has a railway station on the eastern edge of town, providing further connections with locations across the South West alongside London Paddington. Falling within the parish of Ugborough, Bittaford is served by the excellent Ugborough Primary School which is very well regarded locally. The nearest secondary school is Ivybridge Community College which is also most popular.
Outside
Sitting in a large gently sloping plot with vast potential (STPP), Woodpark enjoys gardens to the front, side and rear of the bungalow itself. From the road a private gated driveway provides access to the grounds and provides excellent parking and security; with space for multiple vehicles. Next to the driveway is a useful timber-built outbuilding, providing excellent storage. Lovely lawned gardens lead gradually up to the bungalow and are nicely enclosed by mature hedging, offering unrivalled privacy and enjoying a south-westerly facing aspect - perfect for catching the sun. A path runs alongside the gardens to the entrance of the property and further garden areas then wrap around either side where a lovely patio seating area can be found. There is another timber-built outbuilding at the side which comprises a useful studio and a storage space. At the rear of the property is a single sized garage which is accessed via Beacon View and is fitted with power and light. Adjoining the garage is a useful potting shed and another store room. There is a lean-to covered area beyond the garage which also has a gate onto Beacon View and provides a great space for drying washing in all weathers and bin storage. Finally there is a raised area of land at the very rear of Woodpark which enjoys excellent views and offers a variety of potential uses.
