Description

Attractive detached 3 bedroom bungalow, situated in an elevated location in a popular residential area with delightful far reaching views towards the Axe Estuary, countryside and sea in the distance.

Number 30 Prince Charles Way is a substantial detached three bedroom bungalow, situated in the popular residential area of Prince Charles Way with outstanding views towards the Axe Estuary and countryside towards the sea in the distance. The property which has well proportioned accommodation, gas fired central heating and double glazing, would now benefit from some updating and renovation throughout. The property is within easy reach of the town 'hail-and-stop' bus service and the local bus stop service on Harepath Road.

The front door opens to the entrance hall with airing cupboard housing the hot water tank and gas central heating boiler alongside a cloaks cupboard. The living room is a sizeable room with gas fireplace and sliding patio doors to the front which takes full advantage of the delightful far reaching views towards the Axe Estuary, countryside and sea in the distance. The well proportioned kitchen is fully fitted with a matching range of base units and has space for a table and chairs. Opposite this room is bedroom 2 which is a good sized double bedroom but could equally suit a dining room. Bedroom 1 looks out onto the rear garden and has plenty of space for several wardrobes and benefits from an en-suite shower room with WC. In addition, there is a family bathroom with bath, WC and sink. Bedroom 3 is at the front of the bungalow and also takes advantage of the lovely views.

Outside:
The front gardens are bordered by a brick wall with steps leading up to elevated areas laid to gravel with several beds of flowering shrubs and plants. A paved seating area accessed from the lounge enjoys far reaching views across to the sea and Axmouth and the surrounding countryside beyond. A paved pathway wraps around the property to the right hand side with a pedestrian gate to the rear garden. A stepped pathway to the left hand side leads to the front door and garage and a further pedestrian gate to the rear garden. The rear garden is laid out for ease of maintenance and laid out with a patio immediately adjacent to the rear of the bungalow with steps up to a further paved area with flower borders.. This area is bounded by fencing which provides privacy. A further pedestrian gate opens to the parking area is front of the single garage. This area is approached via Hazel Close from the main stretch of Prince Charles Way to the rear.
