Description
SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
A detached dormer bungalow offering an exceptional amount of both internal and external space, set in a peaceful yet highly convenient position at the end of a small private road.
While the property would benefit from modernisation, it presents a fantastic opportunity for buyers to create a substantial and highly individual home, with scope to renovate, reconfigure or extend (subject to the necessary planning permissions).Approached via a private lane, the property enjoys its own driveway with ample parking for several vehicles, along with access to an integral garage. Inside, the accommodation is generous and versatile, with the ground floor providing a flexible mix of living and bedroom space.
This includes a spacious entrance hall, cloakroom, a bright living room with patio doors opening onto the garden, a separate dining room, kitchen, and two double bedrooms.Upstairs, there are two further well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. In addition, there is an eaves-style room which, with the installation of a Velux window (subject to permissions), could easily become a fifth bedroom.
Two further storage rooms—one of a particularly generous size—offer excellent potential to enhance the layout, for example by creating a principal bedroom suite complete with dressing room and en suite.Externally, the property truly comes into its own.
Gardens wrap around the house, with pathways leading to a variety of distinct areas. Immediately to the rear is a gravelled and elevated seating area adjoining the living room, providing a lovely spot to sit and enjoy views over the grounds. This leads onto a gently sloping lawn bordered by an attractive array of mature plants and shrubs. To the side, a more secluded ‘secret garden’ offers a tranquil retreat, while a further expansive section of garden extends down to the former railway line, creating a natural, mature setting with great character and interest.In total, the plot extends to approximately 0.42 acres, offering a range of possibilities for gardening, recreation, or further landscaping.
Situated in the sought-after area of Whitchurch, the property provides easy access to open moorland as well as a range of local amenities including a primary school, shop/post office, popular pub and church. The more comprehensive facilities of Tavistock town centre are just one mile away.
Tavistock is a thriving market town adjoining the western edge of the Dartmoor National Park fantastic for walking, cycling, and riding.
