Crapstone, Yelverton

A beautifully presented and versatile detached and extended period property in a secluded position, with a large detached garage and a garden studio, set on the edge of Dartmoor.

SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
An individual detached home, understood to date from the 1930s and built in the traditional manner, this property has been thoughtfully renovated and extended to create a beautifully presented and highly versatile living space.

At the heart of the home is an impressive kitchen/family room, recently redesigned with classic country Shaker-style units, a central island with dining space, and a comfortable seating area. This light-filled space opens seamlessly onto the garden via patio doors, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. A staircase rises to a mezzanine level, providing an additional, flexible seating or relaxation area overlooking the main living space. Underfloor heating runs throughout this part of the home, enhancing comfort and practicality.

The ground floor also offers a welcoming sitting room with a wood-burning stove and solid oak flooring, along with a study/playroom (or fourth bedroom), a modern shower room, utility room, and a well-appointed pantry/prep kitchen fitted with matching bespoke cabinetry—perfect for additional storage and food preparation. The utility room provides space for white goods and direct access to the garden.

Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, including a generous principal suite with ensuite shower room, alongside a stylish family bathroom.

Externally, the property enjoys gardens to both the front and rear of a similar size. The rear garden features a patio area designed to accommodate a hot tub, as well as a bespoke timber studio—ideal for use as a home office or summer house. To the front, the garden is attractively landscaped with a level lawn, a newly laid patio, and mature leafy boundaries providing privacy and welcome shade during the warmer months.

A significant feature of the property is the large detached garage, offering ample space for multiple vehicles, storage, or a workshop/hobby area, along with generous off-road parking.
