STONDTORRE

STEP INSIDE A large covered entrance with beautifully made oak door and side windows creates a great first impression. It gives a sense of quality which is echoed through the fixtures, fittings and dĂŠcor throughout the house. To the left of the entrance hall is what is currently used as a generous home office, this could be used for any purpose such as a hobby/craft room or good size bedroom. On the right of the hall is the living room, it has lovely large dual aspect windows looking into the gardens and a fitted wood burner. From the living room there is a door into the dining room, which also has a dual aspect which keeps the room lovely and bright. There is plenty of space for a good size table and other dining room furniture. Double doors from the dining room open up into the kitchen â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the rooms really do flow well and this arrangement would work perfectly for entertaining. The open plan kitchen and sunroom is an impressive space. Beautifully thought out to bring the outside in. The modern kitchen is well designed to incorporate lots of storage and there are fitted appliances including; induction hob, twin ovens, wine cooler, dishwasher and fridge. To the hallway side of the kitchen there are further cupboards and built in tall fridge. The kitchen area is slightly elevated above the sunroom space and the folding doors open right back to give open access to the terrace. Both this space and the kitchen area also benefit from underfloor heating. The ground floor also has two hallway cupboards, a cloakroom, and a useful utility room which has space for a freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer as well as useful storage. Going upstairs, the staircase splits and to one side is a guest bedroom, a generous double with ensuite. The other side of the staircase opens to the landing where there is access to the bathroom, bedroom two with ensuite and the master suite. The master has a good size dressing room (this could be put back as a bedroom very easily if required) and ensuite. It also has a private, sizeable terrace.

SELLER INSIGHT Lustleigh is one of the most picturesque and desirable villages in Devon, when you spend a bit of time here, you’ll soon realise why. Lustleigh is set within the Dartmoor National Park which gives protection to the area and keeps the village as charming as it has always been. There is a wonderful sense of community and it is very sociable from theatre and music in the village hall to the annual May Day and August Bank Holiday show. There’s also a great pub – The Cleave, as well as quaint tea rooms, a general store, post office and an active church. Stondtorre, is on Knowle Road which is just on the outskirts of the village with easy access to Bovey Tracey. It sits towards the centre of the plot which is just under an acre and is very private with beautiful mature trees all around the boundary and no near neighbours. The ‘wow’ moment for me was when I walked into the kitchen living space. With access out onto the terrace, it is perfect to make the most of the garden views and fresh air. The master bedroom has a large dressing room as well as the ensuite. The bed faces the terrace, so it is a perfect view to wake up to. The gardens are very tranquil, natural but well looked after. There is a woodland area which has a constantly changing array of natural flowers; snowdrops, daffodils, primroses, bluebells, cyclamen throughout the year. Stondtorre really is a special place, a beautiful home in a great location with privacy and lovely views on the outskirts of a traditional village. There are so many places to explore from here, river, woodland or open moorland.”*
