SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
An individually designed detached residence occupying a mature plot of approximately 2.5 acres in a wonderful private setting enjoying lovely views over the Tavy Valley and National Trust Woodland of Buckland Abbey. It has highly versatile living accommodation, ideal for multi-generational living.

The living accommodation is arranged over two levels, approached from an imposing main entrance opening to the entrance hall at mezzanine level where stairs descend to the main living areas, and ascend to the bedrooms which all enjoy south-westerly facing views across the gardens and the Tavy Valley.

On the ground floor an inner hall has doors leading off to cloakroom, utility and living room, featuring an open fireplace and bay window overlooking the garden. The living room is open plan to the kitchen/diner which is dual aspect with views across the garden and French windows opening to a sun terrace. A further door from the sitting room opens to a spacious dual aspect ground floor bedroom with adjoining ensuite bathroom.

Upstairs a galleried landing leads to three further bedrooms and a principal bathroom. Bedroom one is a particularly good-sized room which would make a great annexe, featuring a kitchenette and ensuite bathroom, also offering further scope to create a self-contained one-bedroom apartment by incorporating bedroom two.

There is a generous boarded roof space accessible from bedroom two and also a height restricted undercroft accessed by external doors providing a useful store and maintenance access.

The property benefits from double glazing which it has throughout the first-floor, entrance level and much of the ground floor. It is heated by an LPG fired hot water and central heating system with electrical back-up.

The property is offered to the market with no onward chain.

Buckland Monachorum provides public house and church, whilst the market town of Tavistock, 8 miles distant and Plymouth, 13 miles, collectively offer extensive educational, recreational, cultural and shopping facilities.

Outside
The property is set back off a country lane and approached via a hedge-lined gravelled driveway which opens impressively to a parking forecourt with detached double garage. There is a pleasant terrace with level lawn to the side and wonderful views over the garden, backing onto a further garden area with greenhouse and veg plots. The main garden area gently slopes with lawn, established trees and shrubs to a track at the rear boundary providing vehicular access between Lots 1, 2 and 3.

Known as “The Frame Yard”, Lot 1 is a former shrub nursery terraced with block-built beds whilst Lot 2 is gently terraced with grassed areas. Lot 3, currently the site of polytunnels, is let to the neighbouring nursery.
