A Beautifully Presented Detached Victorian Villa - Renovated Throughout Showcasing the Wonderful Period Features
Accommodation:
This stunning detached Victorian villa presents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly characterful home, beautifully combining period charm with modern luxury. Lovingly renovated throughout, the property retains its original elegance with high ceilings, feature fireplaces, panelling, dado and picture rails, and beautiful wooden floors. It is not listed which is surprising given the wonderful period features.
Set over four floors, this impressive family home offers an abundance of versatile living space.
On the ground floor, the heart of the home is the bespoke kitchen, complete with Yorkshire granite worktops, Rangemaster cooker, Belfast sink, breakfast bar and integrated appliances. Flowing seamlessly into the dining room, with its dual-aspect windows and elevated views over the town and countryside, this space is finished with parquet-style Karndean flooring, which continues through the entrance hall and utility room.
The accommodation continues with a magnificent drawing room, featuring a marble fireplace, intricate coving, original shutters and large south-facing windows that flood the room with light. From here, you can step directly into the Victorian garden room, still home to the original vinery, which continues to bear fruit, and out onto the lawn. An elegant sitting room, additional study or dining room, cloakroom and a delightful garden room complete this level, creating wonderful spaces for both family living and entertaining.
Upstairs, the first floor boasts a luxurious principal bedroom suite with en-suite bathroom, three further generously sized bedrooms, a family bathroom and an additional shower room. A private roof terrace offers a peaceful retreat, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or evening glass of wine.
The top floor provides a charming loft room, full of character and versatility, ideal as a home office, studio or additional bedroom.
On the lower ground floor, the property offers outstanding flexibility, with a playroom, gym, two store rooms and two further bedrooms with bathroom facilities. Previously arranged as two separate flats, this level could easily be adapted for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or even reinstated as independent apartments for income potential.
**Outside: **
Outside, the property is approached via a gated driveway, providing parking for several vehicles and access to a useful half-length garage. The gardens are every bit as special as the house itself - with the period features maintained.
The lower garden is framed by original Victorian walls and bursts with colour and character, featuring established fruit trees, climbing wisteria, flourishing roses, and a magnificent magnolia. The upper garden is laid to lawn, bordered by tall hedging that offers excellent privacy, and being south-facing, it enjoys sunshine from morning until evening.
A number of inviting seating areas are dotted throughout, including a charming pergola terrace tucked away at the far end of the lawn, perfect for summer dining or quiet relaxation. Completing the picture is a stunning orangery, a versatile space that has hosted memorable garden parties but could just as easily be enjoyed as a creative studio, tranquil retreat, or dedicated planting room.
Situated on Glanville Road, this property enjoys views across the countryside and town as well as a prime position within one of Tavistock’s most desirable residential areas. This location is ideal for families, professionals, and those looking to enjoy the very best of what this market town has to offer.
Within walking distance, Tavistock’s charming town centre provides a wide array of independent shops, award-winning cafés, and the historic Pannier Market, home to a variety of artisan traders. Bedford Square and the surrounding streets are lined with boutiques, restaurants, and traditional pubs, including the renowned Cornish Arms, perfect for relaxed lunches or evening dining.
The area is well-served by a choice of high-quality schools, both state and independent. Tavistock Primary School and Tavistock College are nearby, while the prestigious Mount Kelly School, offering education from nursery through to sixth form, is just a short distance away, known for its strong academic reputation and sporting facilities.
For leisure and wellbeing, Meadowlands Leisure Centre offers a swimming pool, gym, and classes, and the surrounding countryside and Dartmoor National Park provide endless opportunities for walking, cycling, and outdoor pursuits. Golf enthusiasts will appreciate Tavistock Golf Club, just a short drive away.
For those seeking a touch of indulgence, a short drive leads to a prestigious luxury hotels and dining destination: Hotel Endsleigh, a Regency-era masterpiece offering unrivalled sophistication and tranquil grounds.
Transport links are excellent, with regular bus services connecting to Plymouth, Okehampton, and surrounding villages. Gunnislake railway station, on the scenic Tamar Valley Line, is a convenient option for access to Plymouth and beyond.
