The house itself was constructed to a high standard in the 1950's and has been in the same ownership for many years.  The accommodation is well presented and retains many of its original character features.  The excellent views from the house and garden are far reaching across to countryside and also on to Dartmoor in the distance.  For comfort the house is equipped with uPVC double glazing and gas fired central heating.
