About this home
Dating back to the 1920s, this beautifully presented four-bedroom detached dormer-style bungalow combines timeless period character with modern refinement. Double fronted and approached via a charming fore garden and gated driveway, the property immediately impresses. The driveway leads to a double garage with electric doors, ensuring both convenience and security.
About this property The property is entered via a welcoming porch which leads to the front door and onward into the entrance hallway, from which the home’s well-balanced accommodation unfolds. On the ground floor, a large bay-fronted bedroom enjoys an abundance of natural light, while the spacious bay-fronted dining room, with its dual aspect and feature fireplace, provides a perfect setting for family gatherings or formal entertaining.
. A separate living room, also dual aspect, offers a relaxing retreat and features French doors that open onto a secluded decked terrace, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. From here, the modern cream high-gloss kitchen is accessed, fitted with integrated appliances, hardwood worktops, and a central island, all designed to blend practicality with contemporary style. The hallway also leads to a versatile fourth bedroom or study, overlooking the rear garden and adjoining a useful utility room. Completing the ground floor is a beautifully appointed bathroom with bath and double shower, enhanced by a rainfall showerhead.
. Upstairs, two generous double bedrooms each benefit from inbuilt storage and their own modern en-suite shower rooms, creating private suites ideal for family members or guests. To the side of the property lies a pretty lawned garden offering a tranquil outdoor space. There is additional storage underneath the decked terrace and further under house storage with power. The accommodation is highly adaptable, lending itself perfectly to modern family life or multi-generational living, with flexible spaces that can be tailored to suit the needs of its next owners.
. Equally appealing is the location. St Marychurch, with its charming precinct of independent shops, cafés, and everyday amenities and Babbacombe Downs are just moments away. The picturesque village of Shaldon and Teignmouth are also easily accessible, offering sandy beaches, coastal walks, and vibrant dining options. Excellent schools, supermarkets, and leisure facilities are all within close reach, while strong transport links provide easy access to Torquay town centre and beyond.
. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home that not only offers elegant period features and modern convenience but also occupies a superb position close to the very best of the English Riviera and South Devon coastline.
