Summary - Totnes Road, Newton Abbot TQ12 1LU
2 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Chain-free plot with garage and renovation potential close to town.
Detached single-storey bungalow on a large, private plot
A mature detached bungalow on a generous plot, this chain-free property offers single-level living and clear scope to create a modern, comfortable home. Set about half a mile from Newton Abbot town centre, it sits close to Bakers Park and the National Trust grounds at Bradley Manor — convenient for daily shops, cafés and riverside walks. The layout is traditional with a spacious reception hallway, two double bedrooms and two reception rooms that could be reconfigured to suit current needs.
The house requires renovation: the kitchen is uninstalled and the interior needs updating, although it benefits from gas central heating with a modern boiler and double glazing fitted after 2002. Built between the 1930s and 1940s in solid brick (likely uninsulated), the property will suit buyers prepared to carry out works or investors seeking refurbishment upside.
Outside, the private, enclosed gardens surround the bungalow and include vehicular access from Old Totnes Road, a concrete driveway and a large detached double garage. Lapsed planning permission (Teignbridge ref: 02/03624/FUL, granted in 2003) once allowed an additional dwelling in the garden — a potential opportunity if re-applied for. Council Tax band D and freehold tenure provide straightforward ownership.
This is a practical project for downsizers wanting single-storey living with room to personalise, or for investors and developers who value plot size and location. Be aware of renovation costs and the need to confirm any current development plans with the local authority.
