Property description

A unique detached architect-designed split level house with an abundance of retro features, enjoying good views and a sought after location.

DESCRIPTION
Green Gates presents a rare and rather special opportunity. Built in the early 1980s to a one-off design and constructed to a clever mixture of traditional stone and timber elevations under a slated roof. The split level accommodation has a unique retro interior with features such as timber slat wall coverings, long pendant lights, full height hallway and open-plan kitchen/living room. The property benefits from extensive double-glazing and gas central heating. Outside is a sheltered garden, patio, parking and garaging/workshop. Green Gates represents the essence of late 1970s/early 80s living. This is a home which would benefit from careful and sympathetic updating and improvement. Green Gates is a highly imaginative and exciting house in a desirable and prestigious road on the fringes of historic Totnes.
