Description
CASH ONLY DUE TO NON-STANDARD CONSTRUCTION.
A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a detached three-bedroom Woolaway bungalow together with approximately 3 acres of land situated directly opposite the property, all set within the beautiful Mid Devon countryside near the sought-after village of Washfield. Available to cash purchasers only due to its non-standard construction, this freehold property offers significant potential for renovation and improvement, while the accompanying land provides a wealth of possibilities for those seeking additional outdoor space, hobby farming pursuits, equestrian interests or a rural lifestyle.
Occupying an attractive position with far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside, the bungalow benefits from generous gardens and an elevated setting that takes full advantage of the picturesque rural landscape. While the property would now benefit from modernisation and updating throughout, it offers spacious, well-proportioned accommodation and the opportunity to create a wonderful home tailored to individual requirements.
The accommodation is approached via a large entrance porch, providing a practical and welcoming entrance to the property. From here, the accommodation flows into the main living areas, including a comfortable lounge. The kitchen provides ample space for redesign and improvement, allowing purchasers the opportunity to create a modern and functional heart of the home.
There are three bedrooms, offering flexible accommodation for families, couples, those working from home or anyone seeking additional guest space. A family bathroom completes the internal accommodation.
Outside, the property enjoys generous gardens surrounding the bungalow, providing plenty of space for landscaping, gardening enthusiasts or simply enjoying the tranquillity of the rural setting. One of the standout features is the exceptional outlook, with stunning views stretching across the Devon countryside, creating a wonderful backdrop throughout the year. The property also benefits from off-road parking.
Further enhancing the appeal of this unique offering is the inclusion of approximately 3 acres of land located directly across the road from the bungalow. The land represents a valuable asset and offers enormous potential for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary permissions and regulations. It may appeal to purchasers seeking grazing land, space for livestock, equestrian use, environmental projects, or simply additional privacy and open space. Opportunities to purchase a bungalow and a substantial parcel of land in such close proximity are increasingly rare, making this an attractive proposition for a wide range of buyers.
The property is located in the popular village of Washfield, just a short distance from Tiverton, where a comprehensive range of amenities can be found including shops, supermarkets, schools, healthcare facilities and leisure amenities. The area is well known for its attractive countryside, rural charm and convenient access to major road networks, offering the perfect balance between country living and everyday convenience.
Properties offering both residential accommodation and a significant acreage are seldom available, particularly in such an attractive rural setting. Although requiring improvement works, this detached Woolaway bungalow presents an excellent opportunity to unlock its potential and create a superb countryside home, while benefiting from the versatility and value offered by the accompanying land.
