"An enchanting Grade II house in the town's most prestigious street

HOW TO GET THERE Under the Eastgate arch, Turn left off Fore Street into South Street, where Old Angel Place is on the right. TOTNES Totnes is known as an Elizabethan town but has much earlier origins. It has a castle, a wonderful position on the River Dart and a main line railway station for quick access to Paddington or Cornwall. The are several local primary schools which feed into a well regarded community college, many independent shops, a weekly market and a major supermarket. The area is host to a variety of cultural, recreational and sporting pursuits. Dartmoor, the South Hams and the South Devon coastline are all within easy reach and both Exeter and Plymouth are within half an hour's drive. THE PROPERTY Built in the 1790s and listed Grade II, Old Angel Place is a house full of history and its listing shows that it was previously and appropriately enough called South Wall House and that it was built 'on the line of the face of the Town Hall', which must have been between Old Angel Place and the Eastgate arch. The present owner bought the house in 2007, and has since then redecorated, remodelled and updated it and it is now a beautiful property retaining some lovely old features. Its accommodation includes two large rooms on the ground floor, a sitting room and a kitchen/dining room with tasteful kitchen fittings with walnut worktops. Approached over a lovely wide staircase are three double bedrooms, a bathroom with an antique cast iron bath and a shower room with a large modern glass shower cubicle. Throughout the house are polished wooden floorboards, sash windows [with secondary glazing], moulded cornices and panelled doors. Outside, there is a small walled garden area which gives room for sitting outside and for storing logs and bicycles.
