Sparkwell, Plymouth, Devon, PL7

A unique end-terrace property set within a sizeable plot with countryside views. This well proportioned two bedroom cottage has thoughtfully been extended over the years and now presents a sizeable character home with potential for further extension.

DESCRIPTION
Approaching this fantastic character filled cottage, a private driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a large detached single garage. Steps lead up to the garden which extends from the road, around the property and to the rear providing a tranquil setting, set back from neighbouring properties.

A welcoming entrance porch with built in storage leads through to the spacious hall where you can find the family bathroom and a useful airing cupboard. From the hall you enter the kitchen which boasts high ceilings and exposed beams, while the kitchen is a true rustic cottage style it does benefit from an integrated oven and electric hob as well as space for a dishwasher/washing machine. The sitting room provides plenty of space for additional dining and occupies the original part of the cottage with its feature fireplace and wood-burning stove, double doors lead out to the front of the cottage where raised beds are positioned along the fence and offer potential for further flower beds or a useful herb garden. Stepping out of the original cottage into a further extension, you can find a central landing with plenty of built in storage space before taking the stairs up to the first floor landing with its large window framing the picturesque landscape the property backs onto. The first floor landing offers additional space, perfect for bookshelves, before leading to the two double bedrooms, both of which feature exposed beams, high ceilings with their Velux windows bathing the rooms in natural light while the rooms look out to the front garden; additionally, the primary bedroom has built in wardrobes.

SITUATION
Bushy Ruff enjoys an enviable position on the edge of the popular South Hams village of Sparkwell. The village benefits from a strong community and is situated close to the bustling town of Plympton, where a comprehensive range of everyday amenities, shops and services can be found including being on the local bus route. Local amenities include the well-regarded The Treby Arms pub, Welbeck Manor Hotel and golf course, Sparkwell Parish Hall, All Saints Parish Church and Church Hall, Little Orchard Montessori Nursery and All Saints Primary School. The village is also home to Dartmoor Zoo, a popular visitor attraction drawing visitors from across the region and famously inspiring the film We Bought a Zoo.

OUTSIDE
Externally the property benefits from a large enclosed and private garden which extends from the front of the property, wraps around the side and to the rear. A generous driveway providing parking for up to two vehicles and easy access to the large single garage. The cottage sits within a sizeable plot, set back from the road, providing a tranquil setting and enjoying attractive views across the neighbouring countryside. Steps from the driveway lead alongside the garage and front garden which is enclosed with mature bushes and trees before stepping through the gate to the primary, southerly facing garden predominantly laid to lawn before wrapping around to the rear portion of the garden with its elevated decking and further lawn.
To the rear of the property lies a spacious lodge tucked away behind mature shrubs, which provides several opportunities including guest accommodation, office or outside bar with power already connected. A useful storage cupboard at the rear of the lodge could equally be made into a bathroom if the appropriate plumbing was fitted. Approaching the lodge from the rear provides access to a workshop which houses the likes of the lawnmower.
