IMAGINATIVELY converted from a former warehouse, this town centre home in South Street, Totnes, has some delightful architectural features, and also includes a lift between the ground and first floors.

It was transformed into a stylish and spacious home in 1988 by a well respected local firm of architects and can be hardly seen from the road, approached over a pathway by the garaging.

Entered via a contemporary glass and timber verandah with paved flooring, it has a high quality hardwood door to the large and welcoming dining hall with a security entryphone system, window to one side and a double glazed, mahogany framed patio doors leading out to and overlooking the main area of garden. There is an opening to the inner hall with a staircase to the first floor with cupboard beneath and adjacent, the electrically operated lift. High quality doors lead off to the rear hall and to the breakfast kitchen.

This has a range of laminate fronted floor and wall cupboards, a shelved broom cupboard and provision for a cooker and space for a tall fridge freezer.

Off the rear hall are two double bedrooms, the smaller with a double wardrobe, and a bathroom/wc.

The attractive easy rising staircase to the first floor is constructed of oak and leads to a spacious landing with a superb vaulted ceiling with exposed roof trusses, a door to the lift, bookshelving along one wall and further shelving to a corner.

Again there are quality doors leading to a most spacious living room, over 21ft by more than 17 feet, with hardwood flooring and a part vaulted ceiling with inset spotlights. There is a log effect gas fire in a wrought iron fire basket set in a tiled and timber surround with a slate hearth and mahogany fender.

There is a further link to the entryphone and doors to the south elevation lead out to the balcony and enjoy lovely views over the surrounding area to the hills and countryside beyond.

Also on this level is the master bedroom, with a wall width of fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom/wc with a white suite.

A paved pathway from the front of the house leads to the main garden and adjacent to this is the car port and garaging, which also has a laundry area with plumbing for a washing machine. There is exposed stonework to one wall, the remainder in vertical wood slats, an integral mailbox and vaulted ceiling with exposed roof trusses.

The sheltered courtyard garden is sunny, mainly paved with flower beds to two sides stocked with a selection of plants and walls to either side.
