Tavistock is a thriving market town in West Devon, rich in history and tradition dating to the 10th century. Today, the town offers a superb range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities. Plymouth, with its coastal access, is 18.5 miles to the south. The cathedral city of Exeter lies 45 miles to the northeast, providing air, rail and motorway connections to the rest of the UK.

Description - This unique, characterful and comfortable contemporary home was converted around 2004 by our client and has since been a well-loved home for over 20 years. The individual 3-bedroom dwelling offers interesting and well-rounded accommodation, which is bright throughout and has been maintained in excellent condition, including a full recent redecoration.

Externally, the property’s extensive gardens are undoubtedly a key feature, offering some varied, beautifully well-kept and colourful outside space, adding considerable appeal. In addition, there is a detached double garage with live planning for a conversion to an annexe, broadening the options for a purchaser to accommodate dependent relatives.

Accommodation - The property is accessed at ground floor level and there is access from the parking area directly into the sitting room, or across a footbridge into an entrance porch. The accommodation can then be summarised as follows; a striking dual-aspect sitting room with high-vaulted ceilings and a brickwork and granite, recessed open fireplace; a link bridge connecting the living room to the kitchen, which is currently utilised as a study; the kitchen/dining room, with a Juliet balcony positioned to take in the southernly views; a separate utility; a ground-floor shower room, and; three lower-ground floor bedrooms, including two doubles, of which one is the master bedroom complete with fitted double wardrobes and dressing unit, and served by its own fully tiled en-suite bathroom.

The kitchen is equipped with a good range of cupboards and cabinets with rolltop work surfaces, incorporating a 1.5-bowl stainless steel sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include a fridge and separate freezer, a Sharp dishwasher, Lamona double oven and a Diplomat 4-ring gas hob over.

Outside - A sweeping tarmac drive provides parking and turning space, and access to the detached double garage, above which is a home office/hobbies room and WC, with a picture window taking full advantage of the far-reaching views. As detailed below, the garage has live consent for conversion into an annexe. The side garden features a detached timber summerhouse with its own patio terrace and decked veranda, whilst the rear gardens extend away to an area of naturalised woodland. Both gardens contain an array of colourful mature shrubbery and specimen trees, and are no doubt a magnet for wildlife. A sizable wrap-around patio and seating area offer additional space for dining or entertaining.

Services - Mains electricity, gas, water and drainage. Gas-fired underfloor heating throughout. Ultrafast broadband is available. Limited mobile voice/data service is available through all four major suppliers (Source: Ofcom's online service checker).

Agent's Notes - 1. Cornwall Council granted planning consent under application reference: PA13/06282 for the conversion and extension of the detached double garage to form a 2-bedroom annexe. A certificate of lawful use was subsequently issued in 2016 to acknowledge the commencement of these works, therefore ensuring that the original permission is live in perpetuity.
2. The property is located in an area well-known for its historic metalliferous mining activity. No workings or features are known to exist within close proximity of the property.
3. The property benefits from a right of access over the driveway of the neighbouring property, and is required to contribute 1/9th of the cost of the cleaning, reair and maintenance.
