South Road, Newton Abbot Guide Price £1,150,000

24 South Road is a wonderful example of a substantial, detached family home which dates back to the early 20th Century. Whilst it has been modernised and extended over the years to adapt to family living, much of the charm and elegance one would expect from a house of this period still remains as do many of the period features.

The property benefit of a large annexe which is arranged over one level and can either be utilised as a wing of the main house via internal doors, or indeed a self-contained unit which can be completely separate. The annexe offers a well-equipped kitchen with a range of integrated appliances including an electric oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and space for a washing machine. Beyond this is a large living /dining room with sliding doors to a south facing terrace and conservatory. There are two double bedrooms, one of which is en-suite, as well as a family bathroom. From the entrance hall, the annexe also benefits from direct access into the games room and swimming pool, both of which can also be accessed via a separate external door. The games room in particular is a generous and versatile space offering a number of options for use from table tennis or a pool table to a substantial office/studio.

The house sits in a generous south facing plot along with a private driveway providing ample parking for a number of vehicles. There is also a double garage and a separate private driveway for the Annexe. To the front and immediately outside the living accommodation of the main house is a lovely terrace with a wonderful garden beyond, split into two levels. Largely laid to lawn, the gardens are bordered by mature shrubs and trees ensuring the far reaching views are unobstructed. The annexe also benefits from a private, south facing terrace with a gate leading to a garden area with a fabulous feature apple tree.
