An energy efficient Dartmoor house, which has been recently transformed into a STYLISH AND CONTEMPORARY home, offering MOORLAND VIEWS and sizeable gardens, all within easy reach of open moorland, village pub and primary school.

SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
A semi-detached house which has undergone a radical transformation in recent months, creating a stylish home, which is now energy efficient and tastefully presented. The property now also offers a new Vaillant combi boiler which was fitted in July 2023 along with a woodburning stove, which warms the home beautifully. The current owners increased the insulation measures considerably and the EPC rating is now a C with the potential to be a B with the addition of solar panels. The house was also rewired in 2023 and has been signed off, further improving the fundamental elements of the living rooms.

The main sitting room has a bay window to the front garden and view. The wood burner is sited in the central fireplace with additional cupboard flanked on each side. There is also a vertical log recess, and fixed oak shelving and mantle, finishing the aesthetical appeal. Behind the staircase is a further area which has been shelved with a side window and cupboard, providing space to work from home. The kitchen is again tremendously contemporary with a range cooker and integrated appliances including fridge freezer. The Rangemaster cooker has a gas hob and electric ovens, ideal for those who enjoy cooking and entertaining. Double doors open to the rear garden where there is a patio space which provides room for comfy seating. A door leads from the kitchen to a useful utility room with space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer. There is also a cupboard housing the new boiler and a further door to the rear, plus an internal door to the cloakroom.

Upstairs, the landing is light with oak handrail and glazed panel, improving the aesthetic. The loft space can be entered from the landing, there is no boarding, but the loft and ceiling have been fully insulated. The bathroom is to the front of the house with a side window. It has a bath with a two headed shower over plus a folding shower screen, a basin, and toilet, all of which are modern and barely used. There is a further useful cupboard over the stairs for linens and towels, plus a heated towel rail next to the basin. The principal bedroom has views across the village to the church on the hill and the moors beyond, creating a lovely sense of space to wake up to. The rear double bedroom looks out to the rear garden and makes a lovely size guest bedroom. The third bedroom, is again, not small and would fit a small double. This bedroom is currently being used a dressing room with a fitted wardrobe.

The property is approached from a garden path, which is partly shared with the neighbour and flanked by the front lawned garden. The path continues to the side where there is a gate into the private rear garden, which has a sunny aspect. The rear garden is lawned with a patio and shed; there are mature shrubs and leafy boundaries. The current owners did consider extending at the rear of the house but didn't move to get planning permission.

The property is ideal for those who enjoy outdoor pursuits and the moors without being away from village life. There is an area of moorland which is a short walk from the house, ideal for walks and enjoying the scenery. The village has a good local pub for food and drinks, bus stop, a primary school, village hall, that has a Saturday market, church, and small garage/workshop.
