A traditional period house sited in a village on the edge of the moors, with ample parking and level south westerly gardens.

An extended semi-detached house, requiring updating in areas, but benefitting from modern mains gas heating, PVCu double glazing and a recent new roof. This house is a perfect moorland retreat, moments away from the open moors of Dartmoor National Park, Yelverton shops, good schools, and transport links.
The house was built in the early 1900's and was later extended. This area could potentially also be used to generate an additional income from either rental or holiday let. The house is approached from a large parking splay which could park many vehicles and provides additional hard standing. There is also a former garage which is now used for general storage on the southern boundary. The plot is level and extends to a rear garden, which faces to the southwest, taking in the best of the sunshine. The rear garden has a large lawn, a useful shed, and established shrubs. The house has two conservatories, ideal for those who enjoy looking out to their gardens.

Internally the main house is entered by a spacious hallway with stairs rising to the first floor. The main living area is now open plan and consists of two fireplaces and views to both the front and rear, plus doors to the main house conservatory. The kitchen is modest in size but offers a bay window to the rear, Rayburn stove, hob, and eye level ovens. To the first floor are a further three bedrooms, a bathroom, and a separate WC. There are built in wardrobes and a boiler cupboard housing a new Viessman mains gas boiler. The loft space offers potential for further living space, similar to the connected property, subject to planning and approvals. A separate entrance opens into a lobby and utility area with a sink and space/ plumbing for a washing machine. There is a living room off this room with a further bedroom and shower room, plus doors to the second conservatory.

Crapstone is the ideal location for those who desire to be away from the main roads of the area but within easy commuting distance to Plymouth and walkable to Yelverton shops. There are good local schools within minutes by road and the moors very much on your doorstep.

Yelverton has a useful selection of shops, including the Coop supermarket, delicatessen, hairdressers, garage, and hotel. The ancient stannary town of Tavistock is around 6 miles to the north, with the historic naval port of Plymouth about 10 miles to the south. Yelverton has regular bus services to both Tavistock and Plymouth, where the national rail network provides connections to London and countless other destinations. Plymouth also has cross-channel ferry services to both France and Spain.

Sporting and Leisure facilities throughout the region are excellent – the Cornish beaches are within striking distance, and with Dartmoor National Park extending to over 300 square miles of stunning open countryside, there is plenty for the outdoor enthusiast to find. Sailing and other water sports are available within the Tamar and Tavy estuaries, and there are golf courses at Yelverton and Tavistock with numerous others throughout the region. There are also opportunities to fish by arrangement on the rivers Tamar, Tavy and Walkham.
