Description
The Old School House is positioned in the heart of the old village of Denbury, about 3.5 miles from the market town of Newton Abbot. Denbury has a traditional country village atmosphere and strong local community centred around the church, public house, primary school and village meeting hall. The towns of Newton Abbot and Totnes provide a good choice of shops and amenities including mainline railway stations.
The main living area is set around a fine stone fireplace/chimney breast with wood burner accessible from two sides. The ceiling height extends to the full height of the building in the dining area, with galleried landing. The kitchen/breakfast room has a range of bespoke units with granite work tops. On the first floor the main bedroom is of an impressive size, with extended ceiling height and there is a second bedroom, a bathroom and potential to create an additional room, subject to any required consents.
Outside, there is a useful utility, studio building and shower room with loft space reaching across to the main house. There is a well laid out courtyard-style garden with sought after off-road parking area which is gated and part covered.

From Newton Abbot, take the A381 towards Totnes and on reaching the roundabout at Ogwell Cross, take the third exit and follow signs for Denbury. Once in the centre of Denbury, turn right into East Street and The Old School House will be found after a short distance on the right.
