Situated in a quiet cul-de-sac in the popular coastal town of Brixham, this substantial three-bedroom detached period property offers versatile and spacious accommodation, with a thoughtfully arranged layout that combines comfortable living with practical features. Offering a generous open-plan kitchen, living and dining area, a conservatory/sun room and three double bedrooms, the property is ideally suited to families, those seeking flexible living arrangements or buyers looking for accessible ground-floor accommodation.
The property benefits from a downstairs double bedroom with an en-suite shower room, providing convenient wheelchair-accessible living on the ground floor. Further highlights include a utility room, downstairs WC, a family bathroom, a carport, additional hard standing suitable for a boat or caravan, and a driveway with parking for up to three vehicles. Energy-efficient features include solar panels with battery storage, owned outright, and an air source heat pump.
The ground floor offers generous and versatile living space, with the principal living areas arranged to create a welcoming and practical environment for everyday living and entertaining.
A particularly appealing feature of the property is the large open-plan kitchen, living and dining area. This spacious arrangement provides a natural hub for the home, allowing cooking, dining and relaxation to flow together in one versatile space. Ideal for family life and entertaining guests, the open-plan layout offers flexibility for a variety of furniture arrangements and everyday needs.
The conservatory/sun room provides an additional reception space, offering an ideal spot to relax, enjoy the garden outlook or create a bright and peaceful retreat away from the main living area.
A significant advantage of this property is the large double bedroom situated on the ground floor, complete with its own en-suite shower room. The ground floor is arranged to accommodate wheelchair-accessible living, making this an excellent feature for buyers seeking greater accessibility, multigenerational living or the convenience of having a bedroom and shower room on the same level.
The separate utility room provides valuable additional space for laundry and household tasks, helping to keep the main kitchen area organised. A convenient downstairs WC further enhances the practicality of the ground-floor accommodation.
Upstairs, the property offers two further double bedrooms, providing comfortable accommodation for family members, guests or those requiring a dedicated home office or hobby room.
A family bathroom serves the first-floor bedrooms, while an airing cupboard provides useful additional storage. There is also a plant room housing the property's heating equipment, together with a large attic storage area offering further space for household belongings.
The property benefits from a range of useful external features, making it particularly appealing to buyers seeking both parking flexibility and manageable outdoor space.
A private driveway provides parking for up to three cars, complemented by a carport and additional hard standing. The extra hard-standing area offers valuable flexibility for owners of a boat, caravan or other recreational vehicle, subject to any applicable restrictions.
The rear garden has been designed with ease of maintenance in mind, featuring a lawn alongside gravelled areas. This creates a practical outdoor space for relaxing, enjoying the warmer months or entertaining without the demands of a more labour-intensive garden.
The combination of the garden, carport, driveway and additional hard standing provides a useful balance of outdoor enjoyment, storage potential and off-road parking.
Energy Efficiency and Additional Features

Owned-outright solar panels with battery storage, helping the household make use of generated electricity and store energy for later use.

The surrounding coastline provides opportunities to enjoy scenic walks, beaches and outdoor pursuits, while the wider Torbay area offers further attractions and amenities.

Buyer Processing Fee:
Once an offer is accepted, a buyer processing fee of £250 is payable before we begin processing the purchase. This contributes towards the administration involved in progressing the purchase and arranging the buyer identity verification checks required under UK Anti-Money Laundering Regulations, which are carried out by our independent third-party provider.
Exclusivity Fee:
You can secure the purchase by paying an exclusivity fee of £2,000. This grants the buyer exclusive rights to proceed with the purchase for the duration of the conveyancing process, during which time the seller agrees to remove the property from the market and not negotiate with other parties.
The £2,000 Exclusivity Fee is returned to the buyer upon successful completion of the purchase. It is also refundable in certain circumstances where the purchase cannot reasonably proceed. The Exclusivity Fee Agreement sets out the full terms, including when the fee may be refunded or retained. It does not constitute an exchange of contracts.
This arrangement provides buyers with reassurance that the property is secured exclusively for them, reducing the risk of gazumping and unnecessary aborted costs.
