A substantial detached home on a generous plot offering versatile accommodation and fabulous, far-reaching views to Dartmoor Riverside is a fine example of a substantial detached property which has been in the same ownership for nearly 50 years. Extended and improved over the years, Riverside now offers spacious, bright and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors with all of the principal rooms benefitting from stunning west facing views to Dartmoor. The ground floor entrance hall sets the tone for what is to come and is central to the flow of the living accommodation to which it leads. The dual aspect kitchen / breakfast room is well-equipped and is clearly the heart of the home. It is integrated with a range of appliances including a double oven, gas hob, dishwasher and American style fridge/freezer whilst the adjoining utility room provides space for laundry equipment. Beyond this there is a formal dining room with French doors to the terrace. The fabulous sitting room continues the spacious and light theme and benefits from a feature woodburner and an adjoining garden room with electronically controlled roof blinds providing an extension of the living space as well as access to the rear terrace. Beyond the living accommodation is a family shower room as well as two further rooms which can either be used as double bedrooms or further reception rooms / study or a mixture of both. From the entrance hall, stairs rise to the first floor landing which provides ample storage. The dual aspect principal bedroom benefits from built in storage as well as an en suite shower room and stunning views to Dartmoor. There is a second, large bedroom on this floor which could also be used as the principal bedroom and benefits from air conditioning as well as French doors to a lovely, west facing balcony to maximise the wonderful views over the surrounding countryside. Beyond this, there is an additional double bedroom with built in storage, a family bathroom and a single bedroom or study / storage area. Gardens and Grounds Riverside sits on a generous plot with gardens and grounds on either side. As well as ample parking, there is a large, double garage with electric up and over door. A separate door leads to a first floor studio room which is the ideal space for a home office or games room. To the south, the garden is largely laid to lawn and bordered by mature trees and shrubs while the terrace wraps around to the west providing the perfect spot for alfresco dining. Views to Dartmoor provide a wonderful backdrop whilst a gate to the side provides access to a large lawned area which could be landscaped or planted as an orchard.
