Yelverton, Devon

Some homes are all about what’s inside. This one is about how it makes you feel the moment you arrive. Hidden away on the edge of Yelverton, this 1930s dormer bungalow sits in an elevated spot with sweeping views across Dartmoor, a generous garden, and complete privacy – yet you’re only minutes from village life.

The approach sets the tone: past the golf course, through woodland, and then the landscape opens out in front of you. Pull onto the driveway and you’re greeted with space, peace, and those extraordinary views.
Inside, the layout is flexible and welcoming. The sunroom is the star of the show – a light-filled room where you can soak up panoramic countryside views from dawn to dusk. The adjoining living/dining room has a log fire for cosy evenings, while the kitchen has a classic farmhouse feel with its range cooker and room for casual breakfasts. A utility and cloakroom keep things practical.

On the ground floor you’ll also find two bedrooms (one currently used as a dining room), both with en-suite shower rooms, plus a study for home working. Upstairs are two more doubles and a family bathroom, with built-in storage tucked neatly into the eaves.

Outside is where this property really shines. The gardens, extending to around a third of an acre, are beautifully kept with sweeping lawns, colourful borders, and sheltered corners to sit and enjoy the sun. A large deck takes full advantage of the Dartmoor backdrop – perfect for long summer evenings. The summerhouse with power connected is big enough to use as a studio or garden office, and there’s also a greenhouse, shed, detached garage, and plenty of parking.
If you’re looking for a home that gives you breathing space, incredible scenery, and a sense of escape – yet still within easy reach of Yelverton and only a short drive to Plymouth – this could be the perfect move.
