Description

** ** Amethyst Drive is part of the prestigious Marine Drive development built by Bovis Homes, situated on the outskirts of Teignmouth town. Attractively designed and finished to a high specification this detached family home offers spacious accommodation throughout.

A porch area to the front of the property provides a bin store area and a UPVC double glazed front door leads through to the entrance hallway. The entrance hallway provides a cloakroom/WC, stairs rising to the first-floor accommodation and integral door into the double garage.

Stairs from the ground floor flow up to the first-floor with accessing the open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room, which benefits from dual aspect French patio doors leading out onto the rear garden and the balcony to the front. The kitchen benefits from wall and base units and plenty of work surface. Integrated appliances include high-level double oven, fiver burner hob with extractor above, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. The first-floor accommodation then concludes with a study/5th bedroom with French patio doors also leading out on to the balcony, where you can enjoy brilliant sea views across The Ness and beyond.

The second-floor accommodation comprises three good sized double bedrooms and one single, with the two front bedrooms benefiting from built-in wardrobes and French patio doors with Juliet balcony, enjoying the brilliant sea views. The master bedroom also has the added benefit of an en-suite shower room. The second-floor accommodation concludes with a modern family bathroom comprising bath with shower over with glass screen, low level WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

Outside, to the front you can find a driveway providing ample parking, leading up to the electric up and over garage, which benefits from power and lighting. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn and two paved pathways, one leading to the entrance porch area and the other to the side of the property, providing pedestrian access.

The rear garden enjoys a westerly aspect and is mainly laid to lawn with a patio to the lower level with steps rising to the lawned and stone-chipped garden which is of a good size, bordered by timber fencing making it a private and enclosed garden.
