Underhay, Yealmpton, Plymouth, Devon

DESCRIPTION

Constructed c. 2004, this spacious, individual detached family house would be ideal for those looking for a property in an accessible location, close to all the amenities this sought-after village has to offer. Presented to a high standard throughout, this superb home may nevertheless benefit from some non-essential cosmetic updating to suit individual tastes. The accommodation is light and airy and rooms are of generous size, and the property has the added benefits of a larger-than-average double garage - ideal for any number of uses - and no onward chain.

SITUATION

Yealmpton is ideally situated for commuting to Plymouth, the city centre being only seven miles away. Within the village there are health care facilities such as a GP health centre, dentist and optician, and shops such as a Post Office, general store, hairdressers, garage and filling station with Londis convenience store, café, two public houses and a Chinese restaurant/take away. Yealmpton Primary school is rated 'Good' and secondary schooling is at the 'Good' Ivybridge Community College for which there is transport provided. The village boasts an active community with a wide range of social and sporting clubs and societies.

Surrounded by the beautiful South Hams countryside, with many walks along the River Yealm and beyond, Yealmpton has a rural feel. The yachting haven of Newton Ferrers is within a short drive while many of the sandy coves and beaches of the beautiful South Devon coastline are within easy reach, as are golf courses and the Dartmoor National Park. Plymouth itself is an historic and vibrant waterside city, well provided with colleges, grammar and public schools, a modern university, the Peninsula Medical School, Theatre Royal and cinemas, large department stores, cafés, bistros and restaurants. The leisure facilities are outstanding with superb water-sports in and around Plymouth Sound and the Plymouth Life Centre.
