For sale by informal tender, an extremely well proportioned and versatile detached bungalow in need of modernisation and refurbishment occupying a good size south facing plot with no onward chain. 5 Bedroom, 2 bathroom, 3 reception rooms, Freehold, Council Tax Band: E, EPC band: E

Situation - This sizable detached bungalow occupies a private, southwest-facing plot in the Dartmoor village of Mary Tavy, within easy reach of the local amenities as well as open moorland at Black Down Common.

Mary Tavy itself has a good range of local amenities including a post office, general store, pub and Ofsted Outstanding-rated primary school. Tavistock, 4 miles to the south, is a thriving market town in West Devon forming part of a designated World Heritage Site, rich in history and tradition dating to the 10th century. Today, the town offers a superb range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities.

The maritime city of Plymouth is 20 miles to the south, and the city of Exeter lies 44 miles to the northeast, providing air, rail and motorway connections to London and the rest of the UK.

Description - This deceptively spacious and extremely versatile property is offered for sale, with no onward chain, for the very first time, having been in our clients' family's ownership since its construction in the late 1980s. The property has been maintained in good condition but is now in need of thorough modernisation, offering a new owner the chance to create a one-of-a-kind home of their choosing.

Internally, the accommodation is currently arranged with up to five bedrooms, two bathrooms and three reception rooms, which could be reconfigured, remodelled or extended in a number of different ways, subject to any necessary consents. Externally, the bungalow sits within a mainly level plot encompassing a garage, ample driveway parking and a sizable rear garden, which also offers excellent potential.

Accommodation - The internal layout can be briefly summarised as follows: an enclosed entrance porch; a central hallway; a dual-aspect principal sitting room centred around a stone former fireplace and with a door to the rear garden; an adjacent dining room; the kitchen, which is fitted with a good range of original cupboards and cabinets, with both gas and electric points for a freestanding cooker; a dedicated utility room; a second sitting/family room, also with a fireplace and a door to the garden; a study or fifth bedroom, converted from the property’s original garage; four principal bedrooms, of which two are good size doubles and the master is served by an en-suite shower room, and; a family bathroom.

Outside - A large driveway provides parking and turning space for several vehicles, in addition to the detached single garage. The property’s principal garden lies to the rear and is southwest-facing, being laid mainly to level lawn with some established colourful shrubs and a small pond to one side. Running the length of the rear of the property is a raised stone-chipped terrace. The garden offers an excellent opportunity for those with active families or pets, and those with an interest in horticulture and planting.

Services - Mains water and electricity are connected. LPG-fired central heating. Private drainage via a septic tank. Superfast (FTTP) broadband is available. Limited mobile voice/data services are available with Three, O2 and Vodafone (full outdoor coverage available (source: Ofcom's online service checker)).
