An impressive period house with the benefit of a LARGE OUTBUILDING WORKSHOP/GARAGE plus a useful STONE BARN in the rear garden, sited on the fringe of this world heritage site village close to open countryside and amenities.

SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
An elegant, detached residence which we believe was built in the 1800’s as a village farmhouse. The property benefits from a large, detached garage which is almost 30ft long with powers and lighting, which has housed a boat in the past. There is also an original stone building in the rear garden which also has power and lighting and is currently used as a bar for friends and family. The property is approached from a gated driveway which can park several vehicles, flanked by a beautifully planted flower bed at the front of the home. To the rear is a private garden with lawns and fishpond offering areas to relax and enjoy the setting.

Internally, the house is in good order and has been improved by the current owners. The porch at the front has now been refurbished with coloured glass to mirror the original space. The hall opens to the main living rooms and kitchen at the rear. There are feature fireplaces and a wood burning stove. The kitchen has a been fitted with modern cupboards and harbours an Aga plus a separate hob and dual ovens. Off this area is a rear lobby and a cloakroom.

To the first floor is a landing with a further character window and doors off to the bedrooms which are all of good size. The principal bedroom has space for large wardrobes and opens to a contemporary ensuite shower room. The fourth bedroom is ideal for a home office with views to the front. There are two further double bedrooms and a bathroom with shower and roll top bath.

This tranquil Devonshire village has been labelled a World Heritage Site and is perfectly positioned away from main roads. The village offers a rare local railway station which forms part of the Tamar Valley Line, connecting to the waterside village of Bere Ferrers and Calstock plus onto Plymouth City in around 20 minutes. There are also several shops including a post office stores with local bakery, two small supermarkets, butchers, hairdressers, café/restaurant, takeaway, pharmacy, doctors’ surgery, primary school, public house, bus services and a garage with petrol station.

Bere Alston is 15 minutes by car from both Tavistock and Yelverton and approximately one hour from Exeter. The surrounding fields of the village are peppered with public footpaths which have beautiful walks and views of the Tamar River and surrounding countryside. The Bere Peninsula is formed by the Rivers Tavy and Tamar creating a special secluded area steeped in history. Due to the rivers, there are also public slipways and boat yards at Bere Ferrers and Weir Quay along with a gig club and excellent outdoor pursuit facilities.
