SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
A detached two bedroom bungalow, which was originally a three bedroom property, located in a quiet location, offering one of the largest plots in the road. The gardens and potential of the property are a particular feature. The grounds have been beautifully cared for, and carefully planted, with open lawns, flower and shrub boundaries and areas for seating. The garden has a sunny aspect and sees the sun rise and set on the peninsula. At the bottom of the garden is an area which raised vegetable beds, sheds and a polytunnel, perfect for those who enjoy being in their own oasis.
The property backs onto a small wooded valley and has views from the far western boundary across the Tamar Valley. The property requires some refurbishment in areas. The bungalow offers mains gas central heating from a modern boiler which is located in the attic space. We understand the boiler is approximately 10 years old. There is PVCu windows and doors and a fireplace in the sitting room. The current owners have considered extending similar to the neighbouring properties. There is scope for this subject to planning permission. The property is approached from a driveway, flanked by a front garden, which leads to the entrance and integral single garage. The accommodation comprises a porch, hallway, living room, kitchen, bathroom with shower over the bath, two double bedrooms and a side porch which requires attention, and has space for appliances. A door leads to the garden and the garage. The property is now offered to the open market with no onward chain.
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.

Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
