About this home

A Beautifully Presented Three-Bedroom Semi-Detached Family Home in the Highly Desirable Dunsford Gardens, Higher St Thomas.

Nestled within the ever-popular Dunsford Gardens, this exceptional three-bedroom family residence offers a rare opportunity to acquire a much-loved home that has been cherished by the current owners for over 40 years.

Having raised their family here, the owners have thoughtfully improved and extended the property over the years, creating a spacious and versatile home perfectly suited to modern family living. Notable enhancements include an extended kitchen and the creation of a stunning open-plan family room to the rear, resulting in a superb living space that is ideal for both entertaining and everyday family life.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a spacious entrance porch leading into the inviting hallway. To the right, the elegant living room provides a warm and comfortable retreat, complete with a feature gas fireplace and made-to-measure curtains, creating a stylish yet cosy environment for relaxation.

The true heart of the home is the impressive extended kitchen. Beautifully bright and flooded with natural light, this wonderful space features a traditional gas AGA range cooker which supplies hot water during the winter months and offers ample storage and workspace for keen cooks. The kitchen opens seamlessly into a magnificent rear reception room, creating a substantial open-plan living area that perfectly caters to modern lifestyles.

Designed with family living in mind, the rear reception room is a fabulous addition to the property. With generous proportions and large windows overlooking the garden, it provides an abundance of natural light and a wonderful sense of space. Whether used as a family room, dining area, entertainment space or a combination of all three, this versatile room offers the perfect setting for hosting guests, celebrating special occasions, or simply enjoying time together. The open-plan layout creates an effortless flow between cooking, dining and relaxing, making it the social hub of the home.

The ground floor also benefits from a modern shower room and a separate WC, adding further practicality and convenience for growing families and visitors alike.

The first floor offers three well-appointed double bedrooms, each providing generous proportions and an abundance of natural light. The principal and second bedrooms are enhanced by fitted wardrobes, delivering practical storage solutions without compromising on space. A stylish and modern family shower room serves the accommodation, thoughtfully designed with quality fittings and a contemporary finish. As you ascend the staircase, an attractive original stained-glass window creates a beautiful feature, adding character and elegance to the home. Further practicality is provided by a useful storage cupboard located on the landing.

The beautifully established rear garden is a true highlight of the property, having been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully landscaped over many years to create a peaceful and private outdoor retreat. Bursting with colour and character, the garden is home to an array of mature trees, flowering plants and providing interest throughout the seasons. A particular feature is the delightful Bramley apple tree, adding both charm and practicality to this wonderful outdoor space. The former garage could be used as a home office, offering a versatile space ideal for remote working, hobbies or additional storage. A separate garden shed provides excellent storage for gardening equipment and outdoor essentials.

Adding to the tranquillity of the garden is an attractive pond, creating a wonderful focal point amongst the surrounding planting. Meandering through the garden, you will discover a charming summer house positioned towards the bottom of the plot, providing the perfect place to relax and unwind whilst taking in the surroundings.
