Description


Okemead offers a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious detached residence set within beautifully landscaped gardens, tucked away off one a popular road within Totnes. The property is set well back from the road behind a sweeping driveway and double garage, and enjoys a great sense of privacy and space, all just a short stroll from the High Street. Freehold. EPC Band D.

Situation - Located only moments away from Totnes town centre, a bustling Elizabethan market town full of interest with a wide range of good local schools, shopping facilities and recreational pursuits including indoor swimming pool and boating opportunities on the River Dart. The A38 Devon expressway is approximately 5 miles away, allowing speedy access to the cites of Exeter and Plymouth and the country beyond. Main line rail links to London Paddington are also located in Totnes. The property is situated within easy walking distance of shop, cafes, restaurants and the River Dart.

Description - Okemead is a handsome and individual detached home, understood to date from the 1930s, set in a particularly generous plot of approximately 0.46 acres. The house has been well cared for over the years and is presented in good overall condition, though it would now benefit from a programme of updating and modernisation. Subject to the necessary consents, there is excellent potential to remodel or extend, with the beautifully landscaped gardens providing ample space and privacy for any future plans.

Internally, the accommodation is well laid out and notably light, with large windows, generous ceiling heights and a comfortable flow between living spaces. The property is offered to the market with no onward chain.

Accommodation - The property is entered via a central hallway, giving access to all principal ground floor rooms. To the left lies a superb sitting/dining room, an expansive dual-aspect space extending over 27 feet in length, with large windows to the front and rear and an attractive fireplace at its heart. Adjacent is a bright study, which could easily serve as a snug, playroom or occasional guest bedroom.

A traditional kitchen lies to the front of the house and overlooks the front garden and main drive. A large additional reception room to the far end of the ground floor enjoys triple aspect views and could serve equally well as a further sitting room, studio, or generous fourth bedroom. A ground floor bathroom and separate shower room lie off the main hall completing the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor offers three good-sized double bedrooms with views over the gardens and rooftops of Totnes. A family bathroom and separate WC serve the first floor, while access to eaves cupboards offers additional storage solutions.

Outside - Okemead is set in stunning landscaped gardens that wrap around the property on all sides, with an impressive range of mature planting, lawns, and specimen trees. To the front, a sweeping driveway leads down from Plymouth Road, providing ample parking and access to a detached double garage with power, lighting and electric door. A small pedestrian gate also leads from the driveway to the front entrance.

The rear garden is a particular highlight - expansive and private, with a broad level lawn framed by established hedging and colourful borders. A patio area directly behind the house offers an ideal spot for outdoor dining, with steps leading up through flower beds and a productive greenhouse nestled to one side.

The gardens have clearly been a much-loved feature of this home and are well stocked, offering a tranquil retreat in the heart of Totnes.

Services - Mains gas, electricity, water and drainage. Gas-fired central heating. According to Ofcom, ultrafast broadband and likely mobile coverage is available.

Directions - From our Totnes office, follow Coronation Road and cross the roundabout by Morrisons petrol station. At the next lights, turn left onto the A381 towards Kingsbridge and Dartmouth. Turn right at the next lights onto Plymouth Road, after a short while the entrance to Okemead can be found on your right.
