Primary and secondary education is well catered for in local schools. The recreation ground and park contains, amongst other things, a covered heated swimming pool. Most sports are available including 18-hole golf course, squash courts, indoor rifle range and thriving rugby and soccer clubs. The cathedral city of Exeter lies 22 miles to the East with an abundance of high street stores and the region's main airport.

Returning to the entrance hall, further doors lead to a cloakroom, a useful study, and an excellent family-style kitchen/dining room, with a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances including a Miele double electric oven and grill, AEG electric induction hob, Smeg dishwasher and a Hotpoint washing machine. There is a breakfast bar and ample space for kitchen table and chairs. Moving through the kitchen/dining room, you arrive at a lovely dining room, with bifold doors to side, full-length glazing to the rear and side, and two skylight windows, offering a pleasant aspect over the rear and side gardens.
To the first floor is an impressive galleried landing with a window to front, with good part views of Dartmoor.
