A tidy two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in a quiet cul-de-sac, offered chain-free and designed for over-60s sheltered living. The bungalow has a bright living room that opens to a conservatory, a compact but practical kitchen with recently fitted units, and two bedrooms including fitted storage in the principal room. The low-maintenance, walled rear garden is paved with raised beds and a side gate for external access.
This is part of a managed sheltered-scheme with an on-site warden, communal lounge and 24-hour on-call pull-cord alarm system — features that suit buyers seeking security and community. Fast FTTP broadband, double glazing and proximity to regular bus services into Totnes, Plymouth and Exeter add practical convenience for visitors and families.
Notable charges and restrictions: the property is freehold but within a sheltered housing scheme for residents aged 60+, with an annual service charge around £2,100 (c.£175/month) and a nominal £1 peppercorn ground rent. Buyers will meet the scheme manager on site. EPC rating E and council tax band B apply.
Practical points to verify before purchase: official records contain inconsistent notes about heating (mains gas boiler and radiators are listed in some sections, another section mentions night storage), so confirm the heating system and servicing history. The bungalow is modest in size (c.646 sq ft) with small plot and limited parking on a first-come basis, so it suits those prioritising low-maintenance sheltered living over extensive outdoor space or garaging.
