Beautifully positioned detached bungalow in peaceful Hoo Meavy, offering generous accommodation, stunning countryside views and superb potential for further enhancement. Sweeping private driveway, garage & four bedrooms.
SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
Tucked away in the heart of the peaceful village of Hoo Meavy on the outskirts of Yelverton, Merrivale enjoys a truly remarkable setting. Originally built in the early part of the last century, the property has been thoughtfully extended and refurbished over the years, now presenting as an attractive and well-proportioned bungalow; yet still offering exciting scope for further enhancement.
Approached via a long, sweeping driveway, the setting immediately impresses. The expansive front garden is a picture of serenity, with a charming stream running to both sides of the driveway and a variety of established plants and shrubs adding seasonal colour and interest. Beyond the bungalow, the outlook is equally captivating: rolling countryside stretches out to both sides of the property, bordered by privately owned fields. The result is a setting defined by tranquillity and natural beauty.
Extending to approximately 1,900 sq ft, Merrivale offers generous single-level living. The current accommodation includes an entrance hall, a spacious living/dining room, a well-appointed kitchen, four bedrooms, bathroom and additional cloakroom. A particularly versatile feature is the garage, which also serves as a utility space. For those seeking to unlock further potential, the loft offers an excellent opportunity for conversion; with the possibility of adding further accommodation (subject to the necessary planning consents) creating the prospect of a sizeable home with commanding countryside views.
The gardens are a wonderful feature; to the rear, a terrace provides the perfect spot to relax while enjoying uninterrupted views across the fields. Borders full of mature, choice shrubs are set in a sweeping lawn, leading to a substantial greenhouse and vegetable plot - a gardener’s paradise.
Merrivale is a property that beautifully balances its charming setting, substantial accommodation, and scope for future development. A unique opportunity to secure a peaceful retreat in one of the area's most scenic and sought-after village locations.
Hoo Meavy is a small hamlet of properties on the eastern side of the river Meavy. The nearby village of Clearbrook is a little larger and is home to the popular Skylark public house. Yelverton, with a good selection of shops and facilities, is just a couple of miles away. The whole area is exceptionally picturesque and sought after.
Yelverton offers a wide range of shops and facilities, including a Coop, doctor’s surgery, butcher, delicatessen, hairdresser, chemist, post office and garage. The ancient stannary town of Tavistock lies about 6 miles to the north, while the historic naval port of Plymouth is approximately 10 miles to the south. Yelverton has regular bus services to both Tavistock and Plymouth, with Plymouth providing national rail connections to London and many other destinations.
