House For Sale £395,000
A detached 2/3 bedroomed home with a large south facing garden in a well-established residential part of Whitchurch and within easy reach of Whitchurch Down and Dartmoor. Private Driveway. Garage. Super Views.
SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
This detached two/three bedroomed family home was originally built by renowned local firm, Messrs. Harold Moore & Son to a particularly high standard and has been very well maintained by the current owner.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and benefits from PVCu double glazing and gas central heating. The rooms are arranged around a central hallway with a large first floor landing. In our opinion, and subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents, the house could easily be extended and altered, perhaps with a new dormer at the rear, to provide additional living space, if required.
The house stands in a very generous plot of almost a quarter of an acre, with a private driveway providing ample parking in tandem for two vehicles and access to the single garage. To the side of the driveway, the front garden includes a shaped lawn edged with well stocked beds and borders, plants, and shrubs. The front garden is shielded from the roadside by a low brick wall with a wrought iron gate and block paved path providing convenient pedestrian access to the front door. The rear garden is a particularly attractive feature, south facing and sunny, and landscaped to provide a large, shaped lawn with well-tended raised flower beds stocked with numerous plants and shrubs designed to provide an array of seasonal colour. Adjacent to the house there is a large, gravelled terrace and a path leading to a paved seating area which overlooks the garden and takes in the super view across Whitchurch to Rix Hill in the distance.
At the far end of the garden there is a productive vegetable plot with easily managed raised beds alongside an aluminium framed greenhouse, various well placed water butts and a composting corner.
Tavistock is a thriving market town adjoining the western edge of the Dartmoor National Park fantastic for walking, cycling, and riding. This vibrant and friendly town hosts a wealth of restaurants and cafes selling locally produced food. Enjoy some shopping with the vast range of local independent shops, the bustling pannier market and award-winning farmers’ market. Primary and secondary education both state and private is well catered for in local schools. The Meadows located in the centre of the town provides a children’s play area, a bandstand, a sensory garden, tennis courts, bowling club and plenty of open space. Indeed, Tavistock can claim to have everything adding up to a quality of life which would be hard to rival.
Plymouth is only 15 miles away with fast Inter City rail links to London, Bristol, and the North. There are also ferry services to Roscoff, Brittany and Santander, Northern Spain.
