Details
We are delighted to bring to the market this wonderful split level home which offers excellent family accommodation with the potential for a dependant relative to live alongside. The proeprty offers NO ONWARD CHAIN and so it can be occupied with the minimum of delay, cost and fuss.
Located in the choice coastal village Croyde this spacious home which occupies a lovely, convenient and popular part of the village. Being a cul de sac, Lane Head Close is quiet, as there is limited passing traffic. The road comprises similar style homes, originally built as bungalows in the 1970’s, to traditional cavity construction and many of which, over the years, have been extented and enlarged. This now gives the road its individual feel as the original, and somewhat bland, impression of the old properties have given way to a far more contemporary look.
The present owner has extended the bungalow to form a good size and split level residence. It has the benefit of PVC double glazing, oil central heating and many solar panels (with batteries) making it economic and easy to run. The bright and spacious rooms flow well with an entrance porch and hall, to end of which, are a few steps which takes you down to the lounge. This is a wonderful, spacious and bright room with double French doors which look down through the garden. There are stairs from the lounge up to the the bright living room which has lovely views to the sea. These two rooms not only make for good living space, they also offer excellent entertaining areas.
The return steps from the lounge bring you into the breakfast area which then opens into the kitchen. The main bedroom has a door to the raised patio and had a good size en suite shower room. There are 2 further bedrooms and a large family bathroom.
The 3rd bedroom has a built in wardrobe and access into the very well fitted 2nd kitchen, shower room and living room. It is this area which can be used for a dependant relative as the rooms are set out for independant living. The kitchen is very well appointed with attractive units, tiled floor and door to the outside. There are built in appliances including fridge, washing machine, electric hob and oven. The bright, triple aspect living room has a door to the front.
The property stands on a good size, level plot with brick paved parking to the front for 3 cars. There is side access to the rear garden. Here there is a good size , full width and deep patio; ideal for entertaining as there are doors to the living room. A further raised patio has a door from the main bedroom. The wide garden has deep flower beds, a summer house and large garden shed. To the bottom of the plot is a secret garden/patio which is a lovely place to sit and unwind in peace.
We highly reccommend a viewing to fully appreciate what this property has to offer in terms of space, position, flexibility and sea views. The superb and sandy beach is only a few minutes, level walk away so spending the day with the family is very convenient. Furthermore, with NO ONWARD chain, it can be occupied with the minimum of delay and expense.
