SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
The property is situated in a rural, yet accessible location, offering close proximity to, and views of, Dartmoor. The A30 road network is just a few minutes away along with open countryside, including the well-acclaimed Granite Way, which is part of the National Cycle Route 27.
Nearby are the moorland villages of Sourton, Bridestowe and Lydford. Okehampton lies approximately 6 miles to the East and Tavistock approximately 10 miles to the West.
Okehampton is approximately 30 miles from both the north and south Devon coasts. There are superb local beauty spots where one may enjoy walking, riding, and fishing. The shopping area contains a bank and supermarkets, including Waitrose, as well as many interesting locally owned shops. There is an hourly train service to Exeter and a regular bus service. Primary and secondary education is well catered for in local schools. The recreation ground and park contains, amongst other things, a covered heated swimming pool. Most sports are available including 18-hole golf course, squash courts, indoor rifle range and thriving rugby and soccer clubs. The cathedral city of Exeter lies 22 miles to the East with an abundance of high street stores and the region's main airport.

An extremely spacious, detached house, which was formerly two cottages, and could be reinstated to two cottages, if so desired. The property is not listed and of stone construction with a tiled roof. It requires a good degree of refurbishment and modernisation; however, it offers the prospective purchaser a huge amount of potential.
From the front entrance porch, doors lead from a small lobby into a kitchen, with an oil-fired stove set into a fireplace, one of five fireplaces in the property, and a modern range of kitchen units with electric oven and hob. Beyond the kitchen is a room we describe as the study, however, it is a multi-purpose room which could be used as a playroom, or a ground floor bedroom, to name but a few. A couple of steps lead to a small storeroom, with an adjoining cloakroom. Returning to the entrance lobby, a further door leads to a very spacious sitting room, which was formerly two rooms, with two feature fireplaces. A door leads to a snug/hall, with a further fireplace, a door to the rear garden and a staircase rising to the first floor. There are two further large rooms to the ground floor, which are used currently as a utility room and a boiler room, however, could be reconfigured and used for several other uses.
To the first floor is a long landing, with doors to five bedrooms, all of which are a very good size, and adaptable rooms. There is a family bathroom and one of the bedrooms has a wash hand basin and WC.

There is some double glazing and a modern oil-fired central heating system.

To the outside, the property has two gated entrances, allowing off-road parking, which could be increased. These in turn, lead to two useful outbuildings, one being a large, yet basic, garage/ workshop (overall approximate measurement 8.03m x 7.02m), the other being a pole barn (overall approximate measurement 4.29m x 2.84m). There is also a former animal shelter. The remainder of the garden is laid to grass and is currently quite overgrown however, it has a huge amount of potential and measures approximately one third of an acre.

We are delighted to be appointed as sole agents for the sale of this property, which is offered with NO ONWARD CHAIN.
