Description
Situation - The Old School House lies in the sought-after village of Blackawton, a vibrant community nestled between the market town of Totnes and the historic port of Dartmouth. The village benefits from a welcoming pub, community shop, and a well-regarded primary school, all within walking distance. Surrounded by rolling South Hams countryside, the area offers beautiful walks with views towards the coast and Dartmoor. Dartmouth and Totnes provide a wide range of amenities, schools, and rail links, with the A38 Devon Expressway giving access to Exeter, Plymouth, and beyond.
Description - Formally the Old Sunday School and thoughtfully converted in the 1970s, The Old School House is now a spacious and adaptable detached home, offering accommodation over three floors. The property retains characterful features while providing modern comforts, with flexible living areas, a roof terrace for entertaining, and a private garden.
The layout lends itself to a variety of uses, with potential to create a self-contained annexe on the ground floor or reconfigure to increase the number of bedrooms if desired.
Accommodation - On the ground floor a welcoming entrance hall leads to a generous double bedroom, a modern shower room, and a versatile family room or additional bedroom. This level also includes a practical utility room, a studio/workshop, and access to the integral garage, making it ideal for multi-generational living or potential annexe use.
The first floor forms the heart of the home, with a well-fitted kitchen/breakfast room, a bright adjoining dining room, and a spacious sitting room. French doors open from here onto the roof terrace, creating an excellent space for entertaining with far-reaching views across the village rooftops.
On the second floor there are two further double bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom and built-in storage, providing comfortable and private accommodation.
Outside - The property enjoys a private roof terrace, accessed from the first floor sitting room, perfect for alfresco dining and village views. Steps lead up to an elevated rear garden, mainly laid to lawn and bordered by mature hedging and trees, offering both space and privacy.
At the front of the house there is parking and access to the integral garage.
Services - Mains electricity, drainage and water. LPG fired central heating and cooker.
According to Ofcom, superfast broadband with speeds up to 80mbps and likely mobile coverage available.
