Chapel Close, Petrockstow, Okehampton, Devon, EX20

Occupying a generous plot of approximately half an acre, originally forming the site of three bungalows when first developed in 1974, this impressive detached bungalow enjoys an enviable elevated position with delightful panoramic views across the surrounding North Devon countryside.

This superb four bedroom detached bungalow, complete with double garage, is a truly exceptional property which has been thoughtfully upgraded and meticulously maintained by the current owners. It offers spacious and versatile accommodation, ideal for modern family living.
The property is situated in the sought after North Devon village of Petrockstowe, a charming rural community surrounded by unspoilt countryside.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall, with a cloakroom and a large storage cupboard. The dual aspect sitting room is a particularly attractive space, featuring a substantial fireplace and sliding patio doors opening into a recently added conservatory. From here there are wonderful views over the garden and direct access outside, creating a seamless connection between the interior and the landscaped grounds. Double doors lead through to the extensive modern kitchen, newly installed in 2018 by Magnet.

The kitchen is fitted with an excellent range of wall and base units and incorporates a comprehensive selection of integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, double oven set at eye level, microwave, coffee machine, warming drawer and wine cooler. There are also two spaces with plumbing for tall fridge freezers. With ample room for a dining table and chairs, this is a superb space for both everyday living and entertaining. A separate utility room is accessed from the hallway and provides a sink, additional cupboards and base units, together with additional storage cupboards.

The principal bedroom forms part of an extension to the original bungalow and is a particularly generous and light filled room, benefitting from an airing cupboard, dual aspect windows and sliding patio doors opening onto the rear garden. The en suite bathroom comprises a large shower, bath, low level WC and wash hand basin. The second bedroom overlooks the front elevation and is currently arranged as a home office. Two further bedrooms, slightly smaller in size, provide comfortable accommodation for family members or guests.

Externally, the property continues to impress. There is a substantial double garage with a newly installed electric door, accessible both externally and via a personal internal door. The garage also houses the boiler, along with two batteries and an inverter serving the photovoltaic panels. In 2024, twelve photovoltaic panels were installed, enhancing the home’s energy efficiency and contributing towards reduced running costs.

The bungalow stands in an elevated position within beautifully maintained gardens. To the front there is an area laid to lawn, together with a large driveway providing ample parking and access to the garage. The rear garden features a patio area with steps descending through the gently sloping lawn, bordered by mature trees and shrubs. A paved pathway leads to a brick built sun room or summerhouse, which enjoys far reaching countryside views and offers potential for use as a granny annexe, subject to the necessary consents.

In the far corner there is a productive vegetable patch together with a greenhouse. The side elevation is enclosed by walling and includes a pedestrian gate to the road, with established planting adding further character and privacy.
Overall, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and beautifully presented bungalow in a desirable village setting, offering space, privacy and outstanding views in equal measure.
