Peeks Avenue, Plymstock

Set in a tucked-away location yet less than half a mile from the Broadway shopping centre, in a quiet cul-de-sac, this beautiful 1930s detached bungalow has been extensively and lovingly restored by the current owner to provide a home which now offers both modern comforts and stunning character features of its era. Practical improvements include a new boiler, pipes and radiators, underfloor heating to the shower room, solar panels (owned) and upgraded electrics and window panels. In addition, the owner has restored all the fireplaces and installed original style interior doors, flooring and ceiling roses to most rooms, creating a wonderful home full of character and charm. ** No Onward Chain**

A half-glazed front door leads to the Entrance Vestibule with a feature tiled floor and part glazed inner door with feature stained glass transom above leading to the Entrance Hall, which has a hatch and ladder to the boarded loft space, half panelled walls and feature period wooden doors. The Sitting Room benefits from a bay window to the front, a feature fireplace with carved wooden surround and mantel, and a direct vent gas fire on a stone hearth with feature tiled surround, built-in custom bookcase and antique multi-paned double doors leading to the Dining Room. This room has a window to the side and benefits from a feature fireplace with decorative surround and tiled inner panel with an electric open fire set on a marble hearth, in addition to half panelled walls and two built-in dresser-style units for storage and display. An open doorway leads through to the Kitchen, which has a window to the front and a roof lantern providing an abundance of natural light, and has been completely re-fitted with a range of wall and base units with quartz work surfaces over and cupboards and drawers under incorporating a stainless steel sink unit with mixer tap, dual fuel five-burner range style cooker with carved wooden extractor over, integral fridge, slimline dishwasher and bin cupboard, Carrara marble herringbone splashbacks and Mandarin Stone limestone porcelain flooring. An open aspect leads through to the Utility Room which has been rebuilt with double wall construction and insulation to include a window and half glazed door to the rear, units matching those in the kitchen incorporating an integral washing machine and fridge/freezer, with the kitchen flooring also continuing through to this space. The bedrooms are spacious and light, both benefitting from hardwood flooring and beautiful, newly-restored decorative feature fireplaces. The front bedroom also has a large bay window and built-in wardrobe cupboards to either side of the chimney breast, while the back bedroom enjoys a set of French windows leading out to the garden. The Shower Room has also been completely re-fitted with a large, fully tiled shower cubicle with rainfall shower and separate hand-held shower attachment, low level WC, inset hand basin with granite surround, mixer tap, splashback tiling and cupboard under, tiled floor with underfloor heating and an internal feature stained glass window.

To the front of the property is a good sized garden which has been landscaped with limestone steps and retaining beds and planted with a variety of shrubs and bedding plants including irises and geraniums to create a beautiful welcoming area full of colour. A substantial driveway continues up the side of the property leading to the Detached Tandem Garage, which has an electric up and over door to the front and a window to the side overlooking the rear garden. With near level access along the side, the south facing rear garden itself has also been substantially improved with a new drainage system, limestone patio and raised beds, a small pond with fountain and a cast iron gate leading back onto the driveway. The garden has been well stocked with a variety of mature plants and shrubs including rose, hydrangea, acer, azalea, camellia, cherry and banana plant, and provides a glorious area for relaxing and al fresco dining or pottering amongst the flowers.

Plymstock is a desirable area on the edge of Plymouth, benefitting from a good range of amenities at The Broadway including pharmacy, cafés, and an assortment of other shops in addition to a Lidl, with a Morrisons superstore based at Pomphlett, in addition to a GP healthcare centre, library, Radford Park and Arboretum, Lawn Bowls, cricket club, rugby club, and football club. There are also many special interest groups and exercise classes at venues including nearby Coombe Dean School. Other nearby schools include Plymstock School and Pomphlett Primary School. Regular bus services run from Stanborough Road, connecting the Broadway to the wider Elburton shopping area and Plymouth city centre. The coast is in easy reach with a National Trust beach at Wembury about four miles away, plus sandy coves at Bovisand (three miles) and the coastal path which runs along the River Plym to Plymouth Sound and beyond. The city centre of Plymouth is just under four miles with a larger range of shops, restaurants, cinemas, theatres and mainline train station.
