5 bedroom detached house

This elegant period residence, built circa 1929, carries all the charm of the ‘Art Deco’ era and presents as a spacious and beautifully appointed family home, combining timeless character with modern comforts. Set within enclosed south-facing gardens, the property also benefits from gated parking and a detached garage, offering both privacy and practicality. It is being brought to the market with no onward chain.

Nestled at the end of a private cul-de-sac within Dartmoor National Park, the property enjoys an idyllic yet highly convenient position. Everyday essentials are just minutes away at Yelverton Roundabout, where you’ll find a range of shops, a pharmacy, doctor's surgery and a garage. For leisure and outdoor pursuits, residents can enjoy the scenic Drake’s Trail cycling and walking route, the renowned Yelverton Golf Club, and the picturesque Burrator Reservoir. Families will also appreciate the selection of well-regarded primary schools in the area, with secondary schooling available in nearby Tavistock and Plymouth, including Mount Kelly Private School. Despite its peaceful village setting, the home lies within 10 miles of Plymouth’s vibrant city centre, historic Barbican and waterfront Hoe, as well as Derriford Hospital.

A particular highlight of this property is the landscaped garden, which backs onto ‘Drake’s Leat’. Thoughtfully designed, the garden features level lawns, raised flower beds, inviting seating areas, and a charming summer house, an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining or quiet relaxation. The outlook is further enhanced by delightful views across the surrounding countryside and the church tower, which can be enjoyed from both the front and rear elevations.

The well-proportioned accommodation is arranged over two floors. On the ground floor, a welcoming porch and entrance hall lead to a cloakroom, a comfortable sitting room with open fireplace, a versatile snug/study, and a stunning open-plan kitchen/dining room that flows seamlessly into the garden room, perfect for modern family living. A utility/boot room provides further practicality. Upstairs, the property offers five generous bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate shower room, providing flexibility for larger families, visiting guests, or those needing dedicated work-from-home space.

Further features include mostly PVCu double glazing, mains gas central heating, and a harmonious blend of period charm with contemporary enhancements throughout. This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a stylish and substantial home in a desirable rural setting, offering easy access to both the beauty of Dartmoor and the amenities of Plymouth.

We highly recommend an early viewing to appreciate everything this stunning family home has to offer.
