Situated in a well-regarded location, within easy reach of the town centre, a very well-presented and maintained home offering superb versatility, complete with a southeast-facing garden, garage and driveway. Freehold, Council Tax band: E, EPC Band: C.
Situation - This extremely comfortable and well-appointed family home is situated in a quiet and well-regarded residential area on the northern side of Tavistock, at the end of a cul-de-sac of 13 houses, of which there have collectively been only 15 sales in the past 30 years. The house enjoys some far-reaching views across the town towards surrounding countryside and Dartmoor, particularly from the rear of the property.
Tavistock itself is a thriving market town in West Devon, rich in history and tradition dating back to the 10th century. Today, the town centre (0.5 miles on foot) offers a superb range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities, including the sought-after private and independent school, Mount Kelly. Plymouth is 15 miles to the south and the city of Exeter lies 40 miles to the northeast, providing transport to London and the rest of the UK via its railway links, international airport and the M5.
Description - This extremely tastefully finished and presented, and highly versatile detached house was built in 1996, of cavity blockwork beneath a marley roof, and purchased by our client in 2018, following which it was subject to a comprehensive programme of refurbishment and modernisation.
These works include full redecoration and new flooring throughout, a new kitchen, an upgraded bathroom and en-suite, and new exterior uPVC windows and doors (under warranty until 2028). Additionally, the house was fully redecorated externally within the last 12 months. The bright and well-proportioned accommodation offers four bedrooms and two receptions in addition to the sizeable kitchen/diner, giving the house excellent flexibility to suit a number of lifestyles and requirements. Externally, the house is complemented by a driveway for up to three vehicles, an integral garage and an attractive, enclosed rear garden which faces southeast and enjoys an open rear aspect.
- The house is entered beneath a canopied porch into a hallway. On the ground floor are: a versatile reception room, currently a music room but which could serve as a second sitting room, home office or fifth double bedroom; a cloakroom; and the bright, open kitchen/dining room, which enjoys views over the rear garden and the wooded former railway embankment towards Dartmoor. The kitchen features a comprehensive range of cupboards and cabinets, composite worktops with a 1.5-bowl sink and drainer, a Cuisinemaster range with 5-ring gas burners and triple electric ovens, and space for an upright fridge-freezer and dishwasher. The lower ground floor hosts the principal reception room, centred around a stone feature fireplace, with sliding patio doors to the rear garden and under-stairs storage. This is a private, quiet space with an attractive garden outlook. Also on this level is the utility room. On the first floor are the four double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom enjoys a southerly aspect with views of Dartmoor and the townscape, and includes double fitted wardrobes with shelving and drawers, along with a tasteful en-suite shower room with walk-in enclosure. The matching family bathroom features a panelled bath with a shower over.
