Description


This attractive flat occupies the first floor of a central period property and has been the subject of a recent refurbishment. The accommodation has plenty of natural light with sash windows and a modern, clean cream-white finish throughout.

The open-plan living room and kitchen is of a good size and both bedrooms are capable of taking a double bed. The shower room has a stylish suite and new floor coverings are being installed in every room. There is currently no heating, though points for electric heaters are in a number of rooms and the shower room has two electric heaters.

The flat would make an excellent first home or for someone wishing to down-size, as well as a second-home base from which to enjoy Dartmoor.

Fore Street runs through the centre of the small South Dartmoor town of Buckfastleigh. There is a great range of local shops and amenities virtually on the doorstep. The larger towns of Ashburton (10 minutes drive) and Totnes (20 minutes drive) each provide additional facilities, including a main line railway station at Totnes.

As well as being a gateway town to Dartmoor Buckfastleigh is readily accessible lying just off the A38 roughly midway between Plymouth and Exeter.

Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Compliance

To comply with UK Anti Money Laundering legislation, all estate agents are required to complete ID verification checks on all sellers and buyers, to apply ongoing monitoring until the transaction ends and to verify the legitimate source of funds of every buyer. We conduct these checks through an independent specialist service provider, alongside our own internal due diligence, and there is a fee of £24 (£20 plus VAT) per person. This is not a credit check so it will have no effect on your credit history.
