Situation - This characterful home is situated in a convenient and accessible location in the very centre of Tavistock, within 500 yards of the town centre, high street and other facilities and amenities. With a slightly elevated position and open outlook in front, some fine views are on offer across the town towards Dartmoor and neighbouring countryside, particularly from the first floor and garden terraces.

Tavistock is a thriving market town in West Devon, rich in history and tradition dating back to the 10th century, and famed for being the birthplace of Sir Francis Drake. 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 farmer's markets are held. Plymouth, some 15 miles to the south, offers extensive amenities. The cathedral city of Exeter lies some 40 miles to the northeast, providing transport connections to London and the rest of the UK via its railway links and the M5 motorway.

Description - This double-fronted, period family home offers bright, characterful and well-proportioned accommodation suitable for a variety of lifestyles, and should appeal to young couples and growing families as well as those downsizing or seeking a pied-a-terre. Recently improved and redecorated by the current owners, the house provides warmth, comfort and versatility in equal measure, with various character elements including exposed stonework, cast iron fireplaces and exposed floorboards. Externally, there are terraced gardens at the rear of the house which have been cleverly arranged and landscaped with several areas for relaxation, recreation or horticulture. From the upper terraces, some near-180° views are on offer of the town and surrounding countryside. The property is offered to the market with no onward chain.

Accommodation - The house is entered into a mosaic-tiled hallway, from where there are doors either side to the reception rooms, a rear door out to the courtyard, access to the kitchen and stairs to the first floor. The sitting room features an attractive cast iron open fireplace with a slate hearth, and exposed floor boards. Across the hall, the dining room is centered around an impressive stone fireplace housing a 7.5Kw multi-fuel stove on a slate hearth. An opening from the dining room leads through to the kitchen, which is bright and attractive, and complete with a very good range of cupboards and cabinets, plus a Belfast sink complimenting the solid timber worktops. Built in are a Hoover electric oven and Hotpoint induction hob, and there is space beneath the counter for a dishwasher. A door leads out from the kitchen to the courtyard, which contains a utility outbuilding, and terraced gardens beyond. Off the half-landing is a spacious family bathroom, which includes a panelled bath with shower attachment, heritage wash basin and WC, plus a stylish heated towel rail. Ascending to the first floor, there are three well-presented double bedrooms in all, including the master which is a very large room with a working open fireplace (which, in fact, used to be two rooms), and which benefits from an en-suite shower room.

Outside - To the rear of the house is an enclosed courtyard with stone steps ascending to the gardens. From the courtyard there is access to a cellar storage area and a utility outbuilding which is a very useful space complete with power, lighting and plumbed spaces for the laundry appliances. The gardens themselves are arranged into several distinct areas, incorporating two large areas of timber decking framed by a stone wall, planted borders and raised lawn which could lend themselves to the creation of a vegetable patch. The upper terraces provide the perfect, private vantage point from which to enjoy the stunning views across the town towards surrounding countryside.

Services - Mains water, gas, electricity and drainage are connected. Please note that the agents have neither inspected nor tested these services.
