Offered to the market with no onward chain, this impressive detached chalet-style bungalow occupies a peaceful position towards the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the popular Shiphay area. Extensively modernised by the current owners over the past year, the property now provides beautifully presented and highly versatile 3-bedroom accommodation arranged over 2 floors, together with an additional adaptable first-floor room, generous gardens, driveway parking and an attached garage.<br/><br/>A short flight of steps leads to the front entrance and into a welcoming hallway, where the extent of recent refurbishment is immediately apparent. The original ground-floor arrangement has been thoughtfully reconfigured to create a substantially larger kitchen/dining room, designed with both appearance and practicality in mind. Contemporary white cabinetry is complemented by quartz work surfaces, integrated Bosch appliances, recessed lighting and attractive timber-effect panelling above the units. Newly installed French doors open directly onto the rear patio and garden, creating an excellent connection between the principal living space and the outside areas. A separate utility area is conveniently positioned to the rear of the adjoining garage.<br/><br/>The living room is a comfortable dual-aspect reception room enjoying plenty of natural light together with a pleasant outlook. Also positioned on the ground floor are 2 well-proportioned bedrooms, including the principal bedroom with a newly fitted en-suite shower room, alongside a separate newly appointed family bathroom. The comprehensive improvement programme has also included a complete electrical rewire, new flooring and carpeting throughout and extensive decorative updating.<br/><br/>Returning stairs rise from the entrance hallway to the first floor, opening onto a cosy central landing with useful storage extending into the eaves. From here is a further bedroom together with an additional versatile room, both benefiting from roof windows to the front elevation and pleasant elevated views. The additional room lends itself to a variety of uses and could make an ideal dressing room, playroom, home office or occasional guest space, allowing the first-floor accommodation to be adapted to suit individual requirements.<br/><br/>The outside space is another particularly appealing feature of the property, with gardens wrapping around the bungalow and extending predominantly to the front and rear. The rear garden offers a good degree of privacy and seclusion, incorporating a level lawn, mature planted borders and a sunken patio positioned immediately outside the kitchen/dining room. To the front is a further lawned area with established Magnolia and Apple trees, creating an attractive setting while retaining a pleasant leafy outlook from the property's elevated position.<br/><br/>A private driveway provides off-road parking for at least 2 vehicles and leads to the attached single garage, which benefits from power and lighting. The garage also incorporates the utility area, adding further useful ancillary space.<br/><br/>The location combines a peaceful residential setting with convenient access to local amenities. Torquay Girls' Grammar School and Torbay Hospital are both within walking distance, while The Willows shopping area is approximately a 10-minute drive away. Torre railway station is also readily accessible on foot, providing useful connections to Newton Abbot, Exeter and destinations further afield.<br/><br/>With its comprehensively modernised interior, flexible 3-bedroom accommodation, additional multi-purpose room, generous gardens and tucked-away cul-de-sac setting, this attractive home presents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a stylish and adaptable property within Shiphay.<br/><br/>Council Tax Band: D (Torbay Council)<br/>Tenure: Freehold<br/>Parking options: Driveway, Garage<br/>Garden details: Rear Garden<br/>Broadband options available at the property include:<br/>* Standard broadband (12Mbps download, 1Mbps upload)<br/>* Superfast broadband (not available)<br/>* Ultrafast broadband (1800Mbps download, 220Mbps upload)<br/>- Networks in area - Openreach, Virgin Media<br/>
