A charming former Sunday School with roof terrace, garden, and garage, in the heart of a thriving South Hams village. EPC Band: E.
Situation - The Old School House lies in the sought-after village of Blackawton, a vibrant community nestled between the market town of Totnes and the historic port of Dartmouth. The village benefits from a welcoming pub, community shop, and a well-regarded primary school, all within walking distance. Surrounded by rolling South Hams countryside, the area offers beautiful walks with views towards the coast and Dartmoor. Dartmouth and Totnes provide a wide range of amenities, schools, and rail links, with the A38 Devon Expressway giving access to Exeter, Plymouth, and beyond.
Description - Formally the Old Sunday School and thoughtfully converted in the 1970s, The Old School House is now a spacious and adaptable detached home, offering accommodation over three floors. The property retains characterful features while providing modern comforts, with flexible living areas, a roof terrace for entertaining, and a private garden.
The layout lends itself to a variety of uses, with potential to create a self-contained annexe on the ground floor or reconfigure to increase the number of bedrooms if desired.
Accommodation - On the ground floor a welcoming entrance hall leads to a generous double bedroom, a modern shower room, and a versatile family room or additional bedroom. This level also includes a practical utility room, a studio/workshop, and access to the integral garage, making it ideal for multi-generational living or potential annexe use.
The first floor forms the heart of the home, with a well-fitted kitchen/breakfast room, a bright adjoining dining room, and a spacious sitting room. French doors open from here onto the roof terrace, creating an excellent space for entertaining with far-reaching views across the village rooftops.
On the second floor there are two further double bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom and built-in storage, providing comfortable and private accommodation.
