3 bed bungalow for sale

Springbank, Milbury Lane, Exeter EX6

Description

Welcome to Springbank

A truly outstanding and one-of-a-kind extended detached bungalow, occupying a generous plot in an elevated position. Originally built in the late 1960s, Springbank has been thoughtfully renovated and extended by the current owners over recent years, creating a stylish and versatile family home with exceptional potential.

The property immediately impresses with its excellent kerb appeal and private driveway, which was recently tarmacked in late 2025 and provides off-road parking for four to six vehicles. The bungalow is complemented by a superb detached double garage, newly built in 2025 with full planning permission.

On entering the property, the welcoming hallway leads through to the real heart of the home, a wonderful open-plan living, dining and kitchen space. Designed with modern family living and entertaining in mind, this impressive area provides a fantastic place to relax, unwind and socialise. Luxury Amtico flooring flows through the hallway and main living space, creating a stylish and contemporary finish.

The modern kitchen benefits from a range of integrated appliances, while the living area has been extended to create impressive vaulted ceilings, adding a wonderful sense of space and light. Large sliding doors provide a seamless connection to the south-facing rear garden.

There are three generous double bedrooms, all offering excellent accommodation, together with a modern family bathroom.

One of the property's standout features is the recently constructed detached double garage. Fully insulated and currently utilised as a utility and storage space, it offers fantastic versatility and could potentially be adapted into an annex, home office, studio or additional living accommodation, subject to any necessary consents. Drainage has already been installed, providing potential for an en-suite shower room, while the garage also benefits from running water, power and lighting.

Outside, the south-facing rear garden is a particular highlight. An extensive patio area wraps around the rear of the bungalow, providing plenty of space for outdoor dining and entertaining. Steps lead up to a large, level lawn, with a further patio seating area creating the perfect setting to enjoy the garden.

Adding further appeal, planning permission has been approved under permitted development for a loft conversion, creating two additional double bedrooms and two en-suite shower rooms. This offers significant future potential and could transform Springbank into an exceptional five-bedroom family home.

Springbank is a truly special property, combining its elevated position, generous plot, impressive accommodation, substantial recent improvements and exciting potential for further development. Properties of this calibre and versatility rarely come to the market.
