Tucked away on the outskirts of Dolton, this detached single‑storey bungalow occupies a rare plot of about one acre, combining a well‑kept formal garden and an adjoining meadow with genuine paddock or small equestrian potential. The house has been extended and modernised to create light, vaulted living spaces: a large kitchen/breakfast room, open dining space and separate study offer flexible family accommodation. Solar panels, solar hot water and an air‑source heat pump with underfloor heating reduce running costs and give the property a contemporary edge.
Practical outdoor assets include parking for at least three cars, a substantial detached garage (6.02m x 5.20m), greenhouse, poly tunnel and gated access to the meadow. The rear garden is landscaped with mature shrubs, fruit trees and a large patio — a private setting for outdoor family life or small‑holding activities. The location suits countryside buyers who want peaceful seclusion yet reasonable access to local facilities and the Tarka Trail for walking and cycling.
Buyers should note a few material points: the house’s original granite walls are assumed to be uninsulated, which may affect thermal performance despite the renewable systems. The property also retains an oil boiler and radiators alongside the air‑source system (check specifics on which systems serve which rooms). The fitted log burner is not currently in working order. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is average — factors to consider for home‑working or heavy streaming.
Overall this is a strong proposition for buyers seeking a large rural plot with equestrian or small‑holding scope, modern energy features and comfortable single‑level living. Some fabric upgrades or insulation works would add value and improve year‑round comfort, making the bungalow an attractive, long‑term countryside home.
