A substantial multi-generational home set in a most desirable village close to the South Devon Coast. EPC Band D.
SITUATION
The property is situated on the edge of the pretty South Hams village of Marldon bordering some of South Devon s most picturesque rolling countryside. Marldon is full of history and character and is well served by two good pubs, village shops and post office, a well-regarded primary school, church and a very active community hall hosting various clubs.
Plenty of countryside walks around the area are right on the doorstep whilst the sandy beaches of Torbay and the magnificent Dartmoor National Park are only a short distance away.
The larger towns of Paignton, Torquay, Newton Abbot and Totnes are close by with mainline railway stations and wider amenities, whilst access to the A380 is easy linking to Exeter and the M5.
DESCRIPTION
Singmore House is a most delightful period property with substantial and versatile accommodation. Dating back to the mid 19th Century, the property was once a hotel situated on the former main road passing through the village between Brixham and Newton Abbot.
The property was converted into a dwelling in the late 20th century and has retained much of its period charm.

The current configuration incorporates a sitting room towards the rear of the property with an outlook across the garden, wood burning stove and access into the office which itself features a dual aspect. The drawing room and dining rooms are both situated to the front of the property, with the drawing room having formally been the dining room of the hotel; the dining room features an ornate fireplace with storage provided from a dresser with shelving and cupboard space.
The kitchen is situated to the rear of the property, fitted with tasteful farmhouse style base units with wooden worktops set into an exposed brick wall with useful shelving cut into it. There is space for appliances including a dishwasher and oven.

ANNEXE
The single storey annexe adjoins the property on its Southern aspect, with a separate entrance from the rear of the property.
