Description

GARA BRIDGE 

Gara Bridge nestles in the beautiful River Avon Valley in the heart of the South Hams, being only 4 miles from the Georgian town of Modbury and 8 miles from Totnes and Salcombe. The A38 Devon Expressway is only 6 miles to the north providing access to Plymouth and Exeter with the nearest mainline railway connection at Totnes or Ivybridge. 

The River Avon is nearby and provides a peaceful area to walk, or for birdwatching and picnicking.

Modbury has an excellent range of independent shops and a supermarket as well as restaurants and inns and there are medical, veterinary and dental practices, whilst Totnes provides a wider range of services and facilities.

The local primary school for the area is Loddiswell with secondary and sixth form education at Kingsbridge Community College.  It is also in the catchment area for KEVICC at Totnes  and Torquay Grammar School.   Private education at Plymouth, Newton Abbot or Exeter.

DESCRIPTION 

Luscombe Maye is delighted to bring to market 3 Moon River, a well-presented two bedroom home situated in an idyllic countryside spot.   In addition to the main home the property benefits from an open plan annexe, cabin and pool room offering a great opportunity for those looking for multi-generational living or income potential. 

The main home offers reverse level living and is accessed by steps leading up to the front door. The first floor comprises two generously sized double bedrooms with the master bedroom benefitting from an en-suite with a walk in shower. The family bathroom has been tastefully updated and includes a W.C., freestanding bath and wash hand basin in white. Stairs ascend to the first floor accommodation leading into the triple-aspect open plan kitchen living and dining room with an attractive fireplace drawing attention in the corner of the room. The kitchen comprises matching floor and wall units with an integrated dishwasher, fridge freezer, oven and hob. A glazed door opens on to the elevated decked terrace offering space for a dining table set where you can sit and enjoy the far-reaching views over the valley. From here you can access the garden and acre field that has been subject to a re-wilding programme and planted with native trees and is a wildlife haven. 

The open plan annexe has it's own private garden and the cabin is situated here too, offering a great additional space to utilise. The pool room has a ground floor area of approximately 65 square metres and has potential to be converted (STPP), offering the opportunity for further accommodation such as a  substantial 2 story building or garaging. The property further benefits from a large drive way providing parking for several vehicles.
