Bungalow for sale in Rectory Road, Ogwell, Newton Abbot TQ12

Description

Luscombe Maye are delighted to bring to market Alfred on Sea, a two-bedroom detached bungalow situated in a superb plot of approximately 2.8 acres which enjoys far reaching views across Teignbridge and offers a great opportunity for development (subject to planning permission).

Alfred on Sea was self-built by the current owners and they have implemented many eco-friendly features such as installing solar panels and planting mixed species of native trees to create a woodland. The property is situated on the outskirts of the village of Ogwell and enjoys peaceful surroundings, whilst still being within easy commute of the local amenities.

Entering the property via a glazed door you are greeted with a light and spacious hallway with plenty of room for shoes, wellington boots and hanging coats. Stepping into a large dual aspect open plan kitchen, living and dining area, this is a great sociable space for entertaining family and friends. The kitchen has a range of floor units and wall mounted shelving and there is space for a cooker and fridge freezer plus plumbing for a washing machine. The dining and living area has ample space for seating and a table set and the room benefits from a dual fuel stove with a slate plinth. The real focal point in this part of the home is the beautiful views, which are magnified by the large windows and the outlook makes washing the dishes that bit more enjoyable.

The rest of the accommodation comprises two generously sized double bedrooms, with the master enjoying the same views as aforementioned and having a walk-in wardrobe. The family bathroom has a bath, walk in shower, W.C. And hand wash basin and there is also another separate W.C.

Outside

Alfred on Sea sits in a fantastic plot that wraps around the bungalow with approximately 2.8 acres in total and this has been well established by the current owners. Immediately surrounding the property is a lawned garden with a mini orchard which includes apple, pear and damson trees as well as a fruit and vegetable patch. A small area of the garden has been left untouched for the local wildlife to flourish. The rest of the land is accessed via a five bar gate and this is where you will find the mixed native trees which were planted 3 years ago to create a woodland area. To the front of the property there is a parking area for several vehicles.

East ogwell

East Ogwell is a small community situated midway between the South Devon coast and Dartmoor National Park, close to the market town of Newton Abbot. Newton Abbot is surrounded by beautiful South Devon countryside. The town is home to a large range of shops, restaurants and open spaces with a main line train station giving easy access to London.

Planning

The current owner has planning permission to build a garage adjoining the property. The footings have been laid for this and plans can be seen on the viewing.

Due to the extensive outside space, there is potential (subject to planning permission) for further development. The current owner has made initial enquiries with Teignbridge Council about this possibility. A precedent has been set by the property next door for considerable extension of the existing house.

Agent notes

Approximately 2 acres of the plot is considered domestic curtilage (garden) with about half an acre being registered as agricultural land.

There has been a treatment programme in place since 2011 for a small area of Japanese Knotweed located on the agricultural land. In 2021 the company confirmed treatment did not need to continue and there has been no signs of re-growth since.
