SITUATION The property is located on the southern outskirts of Tavistock, amongst similarly individual homes, conveniently positioned for easy access to Whitchurch Down and Dartmoor. Tavistock is a thriving market town situated on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park and was voted top of a list of 120 market towns in 2004 in a survey run by the Council for the Protection of Rural England in its countryside character campaign based on retaining individuality and distinctiveness, sensitive planning and new development, architecture, sense of history, thriving shops and business, and community spirit. This was quoted in the major daily broadsheets including The Telegraph, The Guardian and The Independent. It has good shopping facilities and a full range of state schools plus several public schools, including preparatory and a senior college. Recreational facilities include golf courses, cricket, rugby, football and tennis clubs and all indoor sports. Scenic walks abound. Tavistock is 15 miles from Plymouth where there is a civil airport offering regular internal and continental flights, a cross Channel ferry service to Roscoff, Brittany, and a British Rail Inter City service to London, Bristol and the North. DESCRIPTION A large detached colonial-style dormer bungalow built, we understand, in the 1930's. In recent years our clients have extended the property and extensively and sympathetically refurbished, which we understand from the vendor include rewiring and plumbing, the accommodation which now provides all modern comforts alongside many original period features including the original doors with stained glass inserts, parquet floors, picture rails and fireplaces.
The house has the benefit of gas fired central heating provided by newly installed boiler with a hot water system including a pressurised cylinder. The windows have been replaced with sealed unit double glazing in timber frames. In addition, we are led to believe that the property has been recently re-wired and the roof insulated.
This home is set far back from Whitchurch Road and within its own landscaped gardens which provide a high degree of privacy and seclusion, together with a useful detached timber garage and recently re-laid driveway providing ample parking. The property is versatile and offers flexible accommodation with scope for an annexe.
