3 bed bungalow for sale

High Bickington, Umberleigh, Devon EX37

A beautifully proportioned and adaptable three-bedroom detached bungalow, peacefully positioned in a highly desirable and discreet setting within the picturesque village of High Bickington. This is the first time the property has ever been on the market since it was built, having been lovingly owned by three generations of the vendor’s family.

Nestled behind a secure gated driveway, the property offers ample parking for several vehicles in addition to a spacious garage, and is fronted by an attractive, well-tended lawn framed by mature shrubs and hedgerows, creating an inviting first impression.

Inside, the bungalow offers a wonderful opportunity for thoughtful modernisation, allowing purchasers to tailor the home to their own taste and style. The layout includes a welcoming porch with integral access to the garage, an entrance hallway, cloakroom, and a separate utility room. The generously sized kitchen/diner flows seamlessly into a bright conservatory, which enjoys breath-taking views across the valley.

The spacious dual-aspect living room overlooks the front garden and features a charming log burner, providing a warm and homely atmosphere. There are two comfortable double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from a modern wet-room style en suite, plus a versatile single bedroom ideal as a child’s room or home office, all served by a four-piece suite family bathroom.

The mature gardens wrap around the property, with the rear aspect enjoying tranquil countryside vistas. Offered to the market with no onward chain, this appealing home presents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a peaceful rural retreat with scope to enhance and personalise.
