A period house, which has been recently refurbished, offering off-road parking, STUDIO/HOME OFFICE (former garage), sited yards from the centre of Yelverton and with DARTMOOR NATIONAL PARK

SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
A recently modernised period house, which we understand was built in 1905 in a terrace of similar homes, offered to the market with no onward chain. The house is set down Harrowbeer Lane away from the main thoroughfare and secluded behind a leafy Devon Bank boundary. The property had a rear garage, which has been converted into a studio, and currently used as a gym. Also, at the rear there is a courtyard which also offers off-road parking if required. The courtyard continues along the rear elevation and benefits from a westerly aspect and evening sunshine. At the front of the house is a sizeable lawned garden with gated path leading to the entrance door.

This character home has been stylishly renovated in the last few years by the current owners, creating a modern home within an Edwardian house while maximizing the original features. The hallway is over 26ft long and harbours two large understairs cupboards ideal for storage. Within the hallway there is side area with a window which provides ample space for hanging coats away from the walkway. The main sitting room is to the front with a feature fireplace and large bay window looking out over the garden and the views across the landscape beyond to the side. There is also good-sized lounge/dining room, again with a feature fireplace, which looks out to the courtyard. This room is ideal for entertaining family and friends, offering room for a sizeable table and comfy chairs. The open kitchen is a particular feature, ideal for breakfast/dining next to a further fireplace which has a wood burning stove for the winter months. The kitchen has also been modernised with beautiful natural slate worktops and butler sink. There is also a sizeable range cooker, making this room a great space for those who enjoy cooking. There are windows to the rear and a stable door to the very useful utility room with space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer plus a downstairs WC.

Attached to the rear elevation is the former garage, which is now insulated and improved with new electrics and lighting. There is also a small loft space with a pull-down ladder. This room is currently a home gym but could work as a studio, hobby room and a home office.

To the first floor is light and spacious landing with an original linen cupboard. The main bathroom offers something rather special, a large walk-in shower and roll top bath. This room is luxurious and contemporary. There are four bedrooms in total, three double bedrooms and a large single. The single room is versatile as it is next to the principal bedroom and is currently used a dressing room. We understand the property has scope for a loft conversion, subject to checks and approvals, as others have in the road. Also, the next-door neighbours have created further parking in the front garden, which means there is scope to do the same, again subject to approvals. The house is warmed by mains gas central heating, part double glazing, original sash windows and further insulation measures and also received a full re-wire in 2019 as well as a new boiler.

Yelverton has a useful selection of shops, including the Coop supermarket, delicatessen, hairdressers, garage, and hotel. The ancient stannary town of Tavistock is around 6 miles to the north, with the historic naval port of Plymouth about 10 miles to the south. Yelverton has regular bus services to both Tavistock and Plymouth, where the national rail network provides connections to London and countless other destinations. Plymouth also has cross-channel ferry services to both France and Spain.

Sporting and Leisure facilities throughout the region are excellent – the Cornish beaches are within striking distance, and with Dartmoor National Park extending to over 300 square miles of stunning open countryside, there is plenty for the outdoor enthusiast to find. Sailing and other water sports are available within the Tamar and Tavy estuaries, and there are golf courses at Yelverton and Tavistock with numerous others throughout the region. There are also opportunities to fish by arrangement on the rivers Tamar, Tavy and Walkham.
