Description:
Luxury home with Atrium and views to the Dart Valley Steam Railway line and station.
SITUATION
Springfield Lodge occupies an interesting position being tucked away in a select residential development adjoining the Dart Valley Steam Railway line with a glimpse of the picturesque station, which has been used for filming. There is a wooded setting as a backdrop to this property and views to countryside. The house enjoys excellent road communications being near the A38 Expressway linking Exeter and Plymouth which are roughly equal distance. Buckfastleigh is situated just inside the Dartmoor National Park and indeed is known as one of the gateways to Dartmoor. Buckfastleigh is steeped in history and has for may centuries been involved in the woollen trade. Local facilities include individual shops, medical centre, swimming pool, tennis courts and bowling club. The Elizabethan town of Totnes is 6 miles away and offers a wide range of educational and recreational pursuits including indoor swimming pool and boating opportunities on the River Dart. There is a railway station at Totnes with a mainline service to London Paddington.
DESCRIPTION
Springfield Lodge was built to a high specification with attention to both design and finish. There is a luxury fitted kitchen featuring polished granite work surfaces, complementary flooring and attractive oak fronted units. There is a 'Smart' electrical system, which provides state of the art centralised communication systems for telephones, computers, TV's etc. The house has a security entrance system and the garage door is electric. We particularly like the atrium which is in the centre of the property and has a minstrels gallery approached via a staircase leading to the first floor bedrooms and bathroom. The gardens have been professionally landscaped and there is ample parking on the brick faced drive.
ACCOMMODATION
From the private drive the outside porch with its part glazed timber door invites you into the entrance hall. From the hall, with beautiful solid oak flooring, there is a guest cloakroom, coat cupboard and doors leading to the sitting room, kitchen and Atrium. The triple aspect sitting room with double glazed sliding patio doors to outside deck, which enjoys views to the countryside and the Dart Valley Steam Railway, and a feature fire place with a coal effect gas fire. The kitchen/breakfast room is beautifully finished with oak fronted units and complimentary polished granite worktops with a matching island unit with doors leading to a utility and dining room. The utility has a selection of units with a stainless steel sink and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer with a part glazed stable door to outside. The centre of the property offers a stunning Atrium with double glazed patio doors that leads onto decking and appreciates the views and the Steam Railway, recently finished with solid oak flooring and staircase. The large skylight illuminates the mezzanine and stairs leading to the upper floor. From the Atrium are doors leading to the ground floor bedrooms which both benefit from en-suites and fitted with wardrobe cupboards custom made by Strachan. There is also a study with an airing cupboard, which could also provide a 5th bedroom, and a bathroom accessed from the Atrium offers a WC, bath and hand basin. The first floor provides a further two bedrooms both with access to the eaves storage and both benefits from the shower room accessed from the landing. There is considerable loft space, which could be utilised, subject to the necessary Building Regulation consents.
