Situation
Kingswood is a charming detached bungalow set in a picturesque rural location on the edge of the sought-after village of Branscombe. Nestled in the heart of East Devon’s stunning National Landscape, the property enjoys far-reaching views over some of the area’s most idyllic rolling countryside.
About
Originally built in the 1970s with a timber frame, the bungalow underwent significant refurbishment and modernisation in the late 20th century, including a transition to brick elevations beneath a slate roof. Thoughtfully designed to maximise the stunning natural surroundings, the property offers countryside views from almost every room.
Accommodation
Natural light flows throughout the property, with spacious and flexible accommodation, having three reception rooms, with three double bedrooms and three modern fitted bathroom suites (two of which are ensuites). The sitting room with bay window enjoys superb uninterrupted countryside views, with attractive stone fireplace with access to a Victorian style conservatory to the side, and double doors leading to the dining room to the rear. The kitchen is comprehensively fitted with matching wall and base units and integrated appliances, with a door to a further rear facing conservatory/utility. Both the family bathroom and ensuite shower room are fitted with quality modern suites.
Recent Imrovements
Under the current ownership, Kingswood has seen further comprehensive improvements over the past seven years. These include the addition of a practical conservatory/Utility to the rear and an impressive double garage with electric door and integrated workshop. The result is a beautifully presented home with bright, well-appointed interiors and a seamless blend of modern convenience and country charm.
Outside
The property occupies a generous plot of approximately a quarter of an acre, offering wonderful open vistas and an exceptional sense of peace and privacy. A pair of timber gates open onto a gently rising driveway, leading to a turning and parking area beside the garage. The substantial garage and workshop, constructed with brick elevations under a slate roof, is fully equipped with power, lighting, electric up-and-over door, and a pedestrian side entrance.
Gardens
Well-established gardens wrap around the bungalow, featuring neatly kept lawns and a variety of mature shrubs and planting. To the rear, there is a sheltered courtyard area and a timber garden shed, adding further practicality to this attractive countryside home.
