3 bedroom detached bungalow for sale

This deceptively spacious detached bungalow occupies an enviable location, tucked away in an elevated position to take advantage of the views over an area of outstanding natural beauty, on the edge of the prestigious village of West Hill. There is a range of excellent amenities including a highly regarded primary school, a convenience store/Post Office and an active village hall. The surrounding countryside provides an idyllic setting whilst major roads are easily accessible, providing swift access to the Cathedral City of Exeter, M5 and the coast.

Westbrook Cottage is a detached bungalow built in the 1960s enjoying well-proportioned accommodation with a highly versatile layout to enable multi-generational living if required. The spacious sitting room has a large picture window, perfectly framing the views and a wood burner creates a cosy atmosphere on a winters evening. There is a dining room for formal occasions and double doors lead to the garden room which would lend itself as a home office. The kitchen/breakfast room is dated but well equipped with a range of cupboards and drawers at both base and eye level allowing ample storage with an integrated eye-level double oven and room for further modern appliances. The light-coloured worktops provide room for food preparation with an inset hob.

There are three double bedrooms, one fitted with a kitchenette which would be perfect for an independent relative or to enable a passion for arts and crafts. The property also benefits from a shower room and an independent bathroom, again adding to the versatility to meet most family requirements.

The property benefits from planning permission to extend (EDDC planning Ref 22/1943/FUL) which will create a substantial and stunning four-five bedroom family home if required, designed to take maximum advantage of the location and views, whilst being sympathetic to the area and carbon footprint with a green roof system. Plans are available on request. There is double glazing throughout and an oil-fired central heating system.

To the outside, a substantial driveway provides off-road parking for several vehicles including room for boats, caravans and trailers along with access to the detached garage with a carport to the side.

The mature gardens and grounds are a particular feature extending to over an acre and will please any keen gardener. There are several designated areas which include a small woodland, orchard, kitchen/herb garden and feature flowerbeds that all help to create a haven for the local wildlife. An expanse of lawn provides plenty of room for children to run and play and the seating and patio areas allow space to enjoy outdoor dining/entertaining in the summer months whilst admiring the wonderful views
