  • Scope for Improvement and Development (subject to planning permission)
A detached bungalow with two bedrooms and good sized gardens. Situated towards the edge of the village the property has a detached garage and two off road parking areas. Requiring a little updating the property offers scope for improvement and potential extension (subject to PP).

SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
Situated on the fringes of this highly popular west Devon village is this detached bungalow with good-sized gardens, detached garage, and further parking space.

Requiring a little updating, the property offers scope for further improvement and potential development, subject to the necessary permissions. The original accommodation has been augmented by the addition of a conservatory and it might be possible to increase this further as there is good space – particularly to the rear where the gardens are open.
The existing accommodation includes two bedrooms, a lounge, family bathroom and kitchen. The property is double glazed and heated by an externally mounted oil-fired boiler.
There are also areas of garden around the sides and to the front where there is a further area of parking.

The property occupies a corner site and there are open fields to the opposite side of the road. The village centre with a number of shops and other facilities including village pub, church, post office and doctor’s surgery is approximately a quarter of a mile from this property.

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.
