A spacious, five-bedroom semi-detached family home in a popular Newton Abbot location, presented in a modern style and arranged across two floors. The ground floor includes a bright lounge, sleek kitchen with adjoining utility, and a private ground-floor bedroom suite with direct access to a secluded patio — ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Off-street parking and well-kept front and rear gardens add everyday convenience and outdoor space for children or entertaining.
Upstairs provides four good-sized, light-filled bedrooms and a contemporary shower room; the principal bedroom benefits from dual aspect windows and generous storage. Practical details such as mains gas central heating, mains services, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern family life. Solar panels are fitted to the roof, helping reduce running costs.
Notable points to consider: the house dates from the mid-20th century and cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation, so buyers should expect potential energy-efficiency upgrades. The age and install dates of the double glazing are unknown, and while the property is described as modern throughout, some buyers may wish to refresh cosmetic finishes or carry out targeted improvements. The plot is a decent size but the overall internal footprint is modest for five bedrooms (approximately 1,270 sq ft).
This property suits growing or multigenerational families who want ready-to-live-in accommodation in a sought-after area close to schools, local shops and a newly developed family park. The combination of a ground-floor suite, parking, and private outdoor spaces makes it practical and adaptable, with clear potential for further improvement to lower running costs and tailor finishes over time.
