Bungalow for sale in Lower Ashton, Exeter EX6

Description

If you are looking to live in the peaceful South
Devon countryside with endless countryside walks
and a superb country inn within 100 metres, then
this gem of a property maybe exactly what you are looking for.

Teign View is a well-designed and cared for single storey home that has been run as a very successful holiday let for many years.

Once you step inside Teign View, you are greeted
with a spacious entrance hallway. The south facing sitting room is to the left and is beautifully light with its dual aspect including a large bay window overlooking the garden. The kitchen/dining room is the next room down on the left, also south facing and overlooking the garden. Fully fitted kitchen units with freestanding electric cooker, fridge/freezer and washing machine, all included in the sale and space for a dining table and chairs. A door leads out into a handy covered passageway, ideal for bikes/ muddy boots and providing access to both the front and rear gardens and the garage. The opposite side of the entrance hallway are the two well appointed bedrooms. Both either over looking the front or side garden. A generous sized, well fitted shower room completes the accommodation perfectly.

Sat within a sizeable plot with two driveways, a garage to the front, and a lovely large garden to the rear offering a great deal of privacy. The area is beautifully kept with an array of pretty country cottage style beds and shrubs. An attractive summer house is at the bottom of the garden and a raised patio adjoining the property is the perfect spot to dine or simply sit and enjoy the peace and quiet and soak up the sunshine. As the garden is level and south facing, the area could lend itself to several vegetable patches and an array of fruit trees. The property also benefits from an undercroft storage area and, subject to relevant planning permissions, Teign View could be enlarged by extending.

For those who love a short walk to a village inn for a tipple and a bite to eat, you can do so within 100 metres of this property. You may need to book in advance, for the restaurant though as it is so popular. If countryside walks are your thing, there are an abundance of them from the doorstep.

Situation

Lower Ashton is on the eastern fringe of the Dartmoor National Park and is justifiably renowned and sought after as a place to live, as it combines the attractions of the natural beauty of Dartmoor, with the convenience of accessibility to Exeter. The A38 is only approximately a 10 minute drive away and links up with the M5 at Exeter and the A30 for Cornwall. Exeter and Newton Abbot provide links to the mainline railway to London Paddington and Exeter International Airport.

Lower Ashton is a small, pretty village within the Teign Valley, and offers various amenities including a Parish church, Village Hall and a highly regarded village inn. The Manor Inn serves up delicious food where diners will drive from miles around to visit.

Within the valley there are a number of other popular villages, the best known and largest of which is Christow, which is known for its beauty and tranquillity. Christow has the well-known 12th century thatched Artichoke Inn, a surgery/health centre, church, a village school and modern community hall, hosting a variety of regular activities.

There is an abundance of scenic walking, cycling and riding opportunities in the surrounding countryside with walking and cycling tracks at Haldon just a couple of miles away. The river Teign and the nearby Kennick Reservoirs provide excellent fishing, there is golf at the local Teign Valley course, several local cricket clubs and sailing and kayaking along the South Devon coast and rivers.
