A generous, 4 bedroom detached home with one bedroom annexe in the sought after village of Stoke Gabriel

Description
Hirondelle occupies a generous plot extending to just under half an acre and is situated on the edge of the popular village of Stoke Gabriel. Bordered on one side by Hoyle Copse, a generous area of amenity land, bequeathed to the Parish Council for the quiet enjoyment of villagers, means that Hirondelle enjoys a peaceful location.

Hirondelle itself is a fabulous example of a spacious, detached home offering versatile accommodation. Arranged on one level, the bright and welcoming entrance hall really sets the tone for what is to come.

The well-equipped kitchen is perfect for modern family living with granite worktops and is integrated with a range of appliances including a double oven, electric hob, fridge freezer and there is a dishwasher and space for an additional fridge. Just off the kitchen is a convenient utility/laundry room.

The kitchen is open plan to the breakfast/dining area which creates a wonderfully sociable feeling to the space. French doors or double sliding doors on dual aspects lead to the terrace and not only flood the room with natural light but provide easy access to the outside terraces and garden creating the perfect spot for alfresco dining.

The fabulous living room continues the generously proportioned theme and benefits from two seating areas. One with a large, picture window which overlooks the lovely front garden and benefits from a gas fire, and the other, which is a cosy tv / snug area. There is also a study area just off these rooms.
Beyond the living accommodation, the principal bedroom again benefits from a large window overlooking the garden as well as fitted wardrobes and a spacious en suite bathroom with double sinks, a bath and a separate shower.

The annexe can be accessed via the main house or from its own entrance.

The flexibility of the annexe means that it would be well suited to multi-generational living, as an income stream or indeed as additional accommodation for the main house.
