3 bed detached house for sale in Moore Close, Newton Abbot, TQ12

Occupying a prominent position within an exclusive cul-de-sac is this detached house with much potential. With level gardens offering much privacy to one side and the rear, and an attached oversized garage and brick paved driveway providing plenty of parking, the house enjoys an open aspect towards Dartmoor from the front aspect.

With attractive face brick elevations, the house is around 40 years old and has been subject to a degree of updating over recent years which is not complete and in need of some further finishing works. In addition, subject to obtaining all required consents and permissions, there is room for remodelling and extension which, in the location would likely be worthwhile in doing so. Recent improvements include the replacement of all windows and external doors with quality PVC frame double glazing and the replacement of internal doors with new contemporary solid wooden doors. The en-suite to the principal bedroom has been stripped of fittings but is in need of the refit.

Moore Close is a particularly well-regarded address within the highly sought-after district of Aller Park, itself home to many desirable homes. The Penn Inn roundabout and access to the South Devon Link Road (A380) north to the county town of Exeter, and Torquay, the capital of the English Rivera, is within half a miles’ drive whilst Newton Abbot’s vibrant and well served town centre with its mainline railway station offering an express link to London in just over 2.5 hours, is just over a mile away.

Accommodation

Stepping inside the front door opens through an enclosed porch into the main hallway. This has a feature 180 degree turning staircase to the first floor with window on the half landing providing plenty of natural light and a cupboard providing excellent storage below. Off the hall is a guest cloaks/WC with updated white suite of WC and vanity basin. The functional kitchen has a door to the garden and a selection of modern cabinets and integrated appliances, the main feature of the living space is a double-aspect living room with window and patio door to the rear garden and a feature walk-in triangle shaped window to the front.

On the first floor, a part-galleried landing provides access to three bedrooms, the master with a stripped out but yet to be refitted en-suite, and a family bathroom with its original-coloured suite.

All in all, this property is in a highly desirable location but would benefit from a degree of sensible and value growing improvement
