Description A rare opportunity to purchase an Edwardian period home (1905), in a quiet position offering a high level of privacy, in the popular South Hams village of Yealmpton. Offered to the market for the first time since 1964, with no onward chain, this three bedroom semi-detached property retains many period features including fireplaces and sash windows. The property occupies a near-level plot of circa one fifth of an acre and offers scope to extend, subject to any necessary consents. Whilst the property would benefit from modernisation, it boasts well proportioned rooms with high ceilings and long sash windows to the majority of rooms, filling them with light. The property also benefits from gas central heating and a timber garage. In brief the accommodation comprises three double bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen/breakfast room, dining room, sitting room, boot room, downstairs WC, and rear porch/utility room.

The kitchen-breakfast room has casement windows overlooking the rear garden and a sash window to the side. A floor standing Ideal gas boiler powers the central heating with a hot water immersion heater in the cupboard providing hot water. There are floor standing cupboards, a freestanding cooker and a sink. A door opens to the rear porch which is currently used as a utility room with space and plumbing for a washing machine, ceramic sink, plank door to garden and windows overlooking the rear.
The sitting room is of a generous size and has a twin aspect over the front garden (sash windows with secondary glazing). Features include a period fireplace and grate, cornice and picture rail. The period staircase leads from the dining room to the first floor landing with doors to the three bedrooms, the largest of which is at the front with a twin Easterly aspect over the majority of the garden and views to the village/countryside beyond and benefits from a period mantel piece and surround. Two further double bedrooms with sash windows overlook the rear garden. The bathroom has a large shower cubicle with sliding doors, basin and WC.

The front garden is laid mostly to lawn with the garden continuing to the side and rear.
