In a hugely accessible, town-centre location, an individual 3/4-bedroom house with ample parking and low-maintenance gardens, offering superb potential for modernisation or remodelling (STP). Highly Versatile; Up to Four Bedrooms; Short Level Access to Town; No Onward Chain; Freehold; Council Tax Band: D; EPC Band: E.

Situation - The property is situated in one of Tavistock’s most accessible locations, in the very heart of the town, within a level walk of just 150 yards to the high street and principal shopping parade. The town’s many amenities and facilities are all in close proximity, and there is a local bus stop only 50 yards from the property’s entrance. The prestigious Mount Kelly is within half a mile, and Dartmoor National Park, at Whitchurch Down, is approximately a mile away.

Tavistock is a thriving market town in West Devon, rich in history and tradition dating back to the 10th century. Today, the town offers a superb range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities, whilst the largely 19th-century town centre is focused around the Pannier Market and Bedford Square, in which regular farmers' markets are held. The coastal city of Plymouth is some 15 miles to the south, and Exeter, 40 miles to the northeast, provides air, rail and motorway connections to London and the rest of the UK.

Description - This conveniently located, individual detached house is offered for sale for the first time in over 30 years, with no onward chain. Now requiring some refurbishment, the property provides flexible accommodation of up to four bedrooms, arranged in a reverse-level layout designed to maximise natural light to the principal living areas. The adaptable layout offers excellent potential for remodelling, alteration or extension, subject to the necessary consents. Externally, the property benefits from a gated driveway providing ample parking, a detached garage, and low-maintenance gardens to the front and rear. The rear garden is arranged as a patio with established tropical planting and flower beds, creating an attractive and sheltered outdoor space. The house combines modern comfort with retained character features, including dado rails, coving, beamed ceilings and former stone fireplaces. Well maintained in recent years, it presents a compelling opportunity for an incoming owner to create a unique home tailored to their own requirements.

Accommodation - The property is accessed at first-floor level via a covered entrance into a lobby, with stairs leading down to the ground floor. The accommodation comprises a central hallway; a bright dual-aspect sitting room with a large stone fireplace and gas fire; a kitchen with fitted units, roll-edge worktops, a stainless steel 1½-bowl sink and space for appliances; a breakfast/sun room with sliding doors opening onto the garden; and a dining room or optional bedroom overlooking the front. There are two double bedrooms on the first floor, along with a spacious family bathroom with bath and separate shower. The ground floor offers a generous bedroom or reception room with patio doors to the front, an office or hobbies room with fitted cupboards and extensive power points, and a ground-floor WC served by a macerator.

Outside - The property is accessed into a good-sized, gated tarmac drive providing parking for several vehicles and housing the detached garage, which has power, lighting and a workbench. Steps then lead up to the property’s entrance. There is access around both sides of the house to the rear courtyard garden, which features a paved patio and has two raised borders planted with established shrubbery.
