" A very well presented detached bungalow in an elevated position with views towards Dartmoor. The accommodation comprises: Entrance Hall; Lounge/Dining Room; Kitchen/Breakfast Room; 2 Bedrooms; Shower Room; Garage; Driveway; Gardens.

SITUATION The property is located approximately three quarters of a mile to the west of the town centre. 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 The property was originally constructed by the respectable local builders, Messrs Greenings, in 1965 of traditional blockwork construction with rendered exterior walls under a pitched tiled roof. In the past planning permission has been obtained allowing the incorporation of the garage into the main living accommodation, although we believe that this permission has now lapsed. From the front of the property far reaching views over the town, surrounding countryside and moorland can be seen.
In the recent past the property has been much improved including the replacement of the central heating boiler in November 2007, and the installation of cavity wall insulation in 2005. The property benefits from gas fired central heating to radiators and from having PVCu double glazing.
