DESCRIPTION      

1 Parkfield Close is a well presented two bedroom end of terrace house in a popular area of Bridgetown. It is situated in an elevated position and enjoys extensive views over Totnes towards Dartmoor from both the ground and first floor levels. There is garden to 3 sides of the property with a chalet style ‘log cabin’ summer house to the rear. To the front of the house there is a large grassed area with mature trees and at the end of the Close there is a play park with slides and swings and additional parking. The property is within walking distance to a large park, St John’s primary school and 2 local shops and a 15-20 minute walk to Totnes. There is also a regular bus service to Totnes. The house has gas central heating and double glazing and is carpeted throughout.

POTENTIAL TO EXTEND  The house would be ideal for extending. Planning permission was granted in 2004 for a 2-storey extension providing a separate dining room, study and cloakroom downstairs and 2 additional bedrooms, one with ensuite bathroom, upstairs. The Council have been contacted recently and see no reason why this permission would not be renewed.
