Offering considerable potential and flexibility, a 2-bedroom house, a separate 2-bedroom flat and outbuildings in a beautiful plot of 0.38 acres. Freehold, Council Tax Bands: E & A, EPC Band: C & E.
Situation - This property is located in the heart of the highly desirable, peaceful and picturesque riverside village of Bere Ferrers, just 125 yards from the village pub, 800 yards from the train station and only 200 yards from the river Tavy itself. The area is sought-after by those with an interest in sailing and other water sports, with the nearby hamlet of Weir Quay providing a boatyard and moorings. Bere Ferrers is also served by a community shop and a direct, 25-minute rail service to Plymouth City Centre.
One stop in the other direction, the neighbouring village of Bere Alston offers further amenities, including the train station and bus connections, two mini-markets, a post office, butchers, hairdressers, a primary school, a doctor's surgery and a pharmacy. Together with the surrounding hamlets, the two villages form the Bere Peninsula, created by the confluence of the rivers Tamar and Tavy, which itself falls within the Tamar Valley National Landscape (formerly AONB), offering superb opportunities to discover the region's rich heritage. The thriving market town of Tavistock, forming part of a designated World Heritage Site, is 9 miles away.
Description - This fascinating, one-of-a-kind property was built, we understand, circa 1980, and has been in our clients' family's ownership for over 30 years. The house itself is arranged in reverse-level fashion - specifically to take advantage of the wonderful river views - and offers extended 2-bedroom accommodation which offers scope for some modernisation, but offers exceptional scope for alteration, remodelling or further extension, subject to any necessary consents.
Accompanying the house is a separate, self-contained 2-bedroom coachman's flat, converted circa 1982, which provides flexibility for multi-generational occupancy or holiday/residential letting. The property occupies a beautiful, mature plot amounting to 0.38 acres, comprising wonderful front and rear gardens, and outbuildings including a garage, workshop and garden room.
The House - Within the house, the accommodation is briefly comprised as follows: a large entrance conservatory; an inner hallway; two ground-floor double bedrooms, of which one has an en-suite shower room; a standalone wet room complete with a bath and open shower; a triple-aspect, first-floor sitting room with patio doors to a balcony enjoying an outlook over the garden and the incredible river views; a separate dining room with built-in dresser unit, and; a dual-aspect kitchen, which has various fitted units, plus a 4-ring gas hob and double oven.
The Flat - The self-contained coachman's flat sits over the garage and workshop, with external steps for access, and comprises an open-plan sitting room/kitchen, two bedrooms and a standalone bathroom all in good order throughout. The Flat could provide a significant rental income for any prospective buyer.
Outside - Outside, the house enjoys some beautifully planted front and rear gardens which are primarily laid to lawn with colourful flower borders, interspersed with a range of mature shrubs and specimen trees. To the front, a sweeping blockwork drive provides off-road parking for several vehicles. Adjacent to the house is a stone barn which features a large garage and workshop, plus an attached utility room. Finally, there is a converted piggery which makes a lovely garden room, studio or hobbies room, complete with a WC. In all, the plot is 0.38 acres.
Services - Mains water, electricity and gas. Gas-fired central heating. Private drainage via a septic tank. Photovoltaic panels on a feed-in tariff. Superfast broadband is available. Limited mobile voice/data services are available with EE, O2 and Vodafone (source: Ofcom's online service checker). The Council Tax Band for the flat is A.
