Situation - This appealing property is tucked away into an incredibly attractive and private position at the head of a no-through lane, in the sought-after settlement of Axtown just outside of the desirable village of Yelverton. Only half a mile from Dartmoor National Park at Roborough Common, there are unlimited opportunities for walking and riding directly from the doorstep. The city of Plymouth is 9.5 miles away (Derriford Hospital 6.5 miles), whilst Yelverton is 1.5 miles away and Tavistock is 7 miles. Yelverton is an extremely sought-after village on the fringe of Dartmoor, providing an excellent range of amenities and facilities including a Co-op mini-supermarket, local butchers, delicatessen, cafe and pharmacy, plus a GP Surgery, Texaco fuel station, Post Office and Veterinary Surgery, as well as a selection of eateries and a popular Free House, The Rock Inn. For the sports enthusiast, there are golf, cricket, tennis and bowling clubs.
Description - Available to the market, chain-free, for the first time in approximately 20 years, this charming, semi-detached character farmhouse has 16th-century origins but is not Listed, and has retained a huge amount of character including stone mullion windows, beamed ceilings and impressive fireplaces. Surrounding the house are pretty cottage-style gardens and there is ample parking in addition to two large garages.
An additional lot is available by negotiation which carries significant equestrian appeal, encompassing a further field (approx. 4 acres) and a very well-arranged stone stable building, all within half a mile of open moorland. Please see our accompanying Location Plan for details, or enquire directly with the office.
House And Gardens - The house is accessed through a storm porch into a hallway, with a cloaks and boots room at the far end. On the ground floor are: a large, open-plan dining hall centered around an impressive stone and timber inglenook fireplace housing a log burning stove; a well-equipped kitchen; a dual-aspect sitting room featuring a stone fireplace with inset Villager log burning stove; a separate utility; a cloakroom, and, at first-floor level; three bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom. Additionally, accessed via a pull-down ladder, the loft has been carpeted and is naturally lit through three Velux windows, offering opportunities for formal conversion into living space, subject to any necessary consents or approvals. The rear garden is arranged into two distinct areas interspersed with several fruit trees, and contains a detached block and brickwork outbuilding which could be adapted for use as a studio, garden office, workshop or machinery shed (STP), or even a single loose box to serve the adjacent paddock. Opposite the house are two sizable garage/workshop units and a separate store room with power and lighting connected. Additional parking is available on a gated tarmac drive. In all, the property amounts to 1.551 acres.
Additional Paddock And Stabling - The westerly field has recently been re-fenced and is divided into two paddocks with individual access gates, served by mains-fed troughs. The stable building is of very good quality and is well-packaged, to encompass four loose boxes, hay stores/pony stabling and a tack room, with a hay loft over and separate attached store, all served by mains power and water, external floodlighting and rainwater harvesting. 4.177 acres in all.
Services - Mains water and electricity. Oil-fired central heating. Drainage via septic tank (shared). Standard ADSL broadband is available. Limited mobile voice/data services are available with EE (Source: Ofcom's online service checker). Please note that the agents have neither inspected or tested these services.
