Situation - This detached house occupies an attractive plot in the highly sought-after location of Whitchurch, on the south-eastern edge of Tavistock. The house enjoys a hugely convenient position within close proximity of local amenities and facilities including a pub, local shop/post office and local primary school all within easy reach, as well as having nearby access to Whitchurch common leading on to the full expanse of Dartmoor National Park, making the house an ideal prospect for those who enjoy an outdoors-oriented lifestyle. There is also a stop nearby on the Tavistock to Plymouth bus route and Drakes Trail cycle route is available within a few hundred yards. Tavistock is a thriving market town in West Devon, rich in history and tradition dating back to the 10th century. 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 extremely well-rounded and appealing home was built, we understand, in 1969, and has been comprehensively refurbished and improved during our client's more recent ownership to create a home of tremendous comfort and convenience. The flexible 3-bedroomed accommodation has been subject to a programme of improvement that includes complete internal refurbishment and redecoration, a new kitchen and new bathroom, radiators and central heating system, new ring main, new carpets, wood burning stove and the replacement of the roof slates in 2018. Complementing the house externally are some very attractive gardens which wrap around the house and should appeal strongly to hobby gardeners and keen horticulturists alike, comprising a mixture of lawns, planted borders and seating areas. Finally, there is a gated driveway providing off road parking in front of the house and a detached workshop building to the side.
Accommodation - The house is accessed through an enclosed porch which leads into the central hallway, from where there are doors to the principal rooms and stairs to the first floor. The living room is a large, bright and spacious room with a dual-aspect view overlooking the property's gardens on two sides and sliding patio doors to the rear. In one corner there is a sizable Contura log burner on a slate hearth. Across the hallway is the dining room which could also serve as a fourth bedroom or home office, particularly as the living room is sufficient in size to accommodate a sizable dining table. The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern units to two walls, which incorporates a stainless steel 1.5-bowl sink with mixer tap, plus a Bosch integrated dishwasher. There are spaces for an upright fridge/freezer and space for either an electric or gas cooker with a Smeg extractor hood over. On one side of the kitchen is an attractive breakfast area with shuttered windows, and there is a separate door out to the garden. Additionally, to the side of the kitchen there is a full-height pantry cupboard and a door through to a cloakroom, which also contains additional storage cupboards and a utility cupboard with plumbing for a washer/dryer. Off the first floor landing are the three double bedrooms and shower room. The principal bedroom is a large, dual-aspect room with windows on the east and west sides affording plenty of natural light throughout the day. The shower room is complete with a tasteful and stylish, modern 3-piece suite to include a basin set into a vanity unit, a low-level WC and a fully tiled, double-width walk-in shower enclosure.
Outside - The house is approached through a double gate and onto a slate-chipped driveway that is sufficient in size to provide off-road parking for up to three vehicles. The driveway is flanked by planted borders and a variety of specimen trees and flowering shrubs. There is gated access from the driveway to the side of the house and steps up to the entrance porch. The gardens to the side and rear of the house have been comprehensively and meticulously landscaped by our client and now comprise well-kept lawns and seating areas with deep borders filled with a variety of colourful flowering plants and shrubs, interspersed with a selection of young trees. At the rear of the house is a paved patio offering a good degree of privacy, perfect for barbeques and al fresco dining. Steps lead up to a further raised lawn and on to a raised timber deck from where you can appreciate the house's verdant surroundings. There are further beds adjacent which have been planted with soft fruit and vegetables, and there is also a 6x4ft greenhouse. Dotted around the garden there are three apple trees, and lying adjacent to the house on the northern side is a detached workshop. This building could be adapted to a home office or studio, subject to any necessary consents.
