Loddiswell, Kingsbridge, TQ7 4RB

Little Gate Lodge presents a rare opportunity to acquire a charming four-bedroom semi-detached family home, boasting breathtaking views across the valley and hills.

Originally a barn, Little Gate Lodge features sturdy 2-foot-thick exterior walls, offering exceptional privacy, robust construction, and excellent soundproofing.

The interior is generously proportioned, with inviting living spaces throughout. Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by a convenient cloakroom with WC and basin, complemented by slate flooring and a practical shoe storage area. Ahead lies a spacious, light-filled living and dining area, with Axminster carpeting and high ceilings. A working open fireplace, currently housing an electric stove, is framed by a solid oak mantelpiece, adding character to the room. The dining space enjoys panoramic views of the valley. A door from the living area opens into a large study, which could easily serve as an additional bedroom. An enclosed under stair space, currently used to store wine, provides useful additional storage. With its south-east facing aspect, the ground-floor rooms are filled with natural light throughout the day, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. From the dining room, sliding glass doors lead to a south-facing patio, a true suntrap.

The kitchen is a delight, featuring an oil-fired Aga that adds warmth and character. It is equipped with integrated appliances, including an electric oven, hob, fridge, and ample cupboard space. A central tiled island provides a great workspace for meal preparation, and the window overlooks the garden and valley beyond. From the kitchen, a door leads to a practical utility room housing a fridge freezer, space for a washing machine/ tumble dryer, and the oil-fired boiler. The kitchen also has a stable door that leads out to the garden.

Upstairs, a wide carpeted staircase leads to a spacious landing, which accommodates four generously sized bedrooms, each offering stunning valley views from the Swedish designed reversible windows and built-in wardrobes. The master bedroom benefits from a spacious en-suite bathroom with a shower, WC, bidet, heated towel rail, and a handbasin set into a vanity unit providing additional storage space. The family bathroom, with a matching suite, and a separate WC at the end of the landing serve the other bedrooms. There is also ample additional storage space in the loft, accessible by a ladder.

Outside, a full-length patio runs along the house, providing a perfect space for alfresco dining, watching wildlife, and enjoying the breathtaking views over the beautifully landscaped, prize winning garden and the valley beyond. Garden enthusiasts will appreciate the expertly planned planting and mature shrubs and trees across the four terraced levels of this serene Devon retreat. A hidden garden with various nooks and seating areas offers a sense of discovery for both adults and children. On the upper terrace, a solidly built garden room currently serves as a potting shed but could be easily transformed into an artist's studio or just somewhere to simply sit, relax and enjoy the garden.

A solid-built single garage with electrically operated door offers covered parking, wood storage, and could also double as a workshop. Additional parking is available on the driveway at the front of the property.

Situated in a village with a local primary school and bus services to the secondary school in Kingsbridge, this home is ideal for families seeking a peaceful and nurturing environment to raise their children.
