The gardens and grounds are a particularly attractive feature of the property, wrapping around the house and providing a wonderful sense of space and privacy. The side gardens extend from the driveway and lead around to the main garden, which is predominantly laid to lawn and enjoys a southerly aspect. Mature planting, shrubs and established borders create interest throughout the grounds, while a decked seating area offers an ideal spot for outdoor relaxation, complemented by a garden shed and summer house.
The garden also incorporates several charming sections, including what was once a dedicated gardener’s area with raised beds, along with an additional patio terrace. Altogether, the mature gardens provide a beautiful and varied outdoor environment.
This impressive home combines period character, generous proportions and a superb plot in a highly sought-after Yelverton location. With countryside views, mature grounds and considerable scope for updating, it offers an exceptional opportunity to create a truly outstanding family residence.
Yelverton offers a wide range of shops and facilities, including a Coop, doctor’s surgery, butcher, delicatessen, hairdresser, chemist, post office and garage. The ancient stannary town of Tavistock lies about 6 miles to the north, while the historic naval port of Plymouth is approximately 10 miles to the south. Yelverton has regular bus services to both Tavistock and Plymouth, with Plymouth providing national rail connections to London and many other destinations. Additionally, Plymouth offers cross-channel ferry services to France and Spain. The region boasts excellent sporting and leisure facilities, such as the Yelverton and Tavistock golf courses and Drake's Trail cycle path, which links Tavistock with Plymouth along the former railway line, featuring tunnels and riverside sections. Lopwell Dam, located on the lower reaches of the River Tavy, and Buckland Abbey, the former home of Sir Francis Drake, are both nearby. Cornish beaches are within easy reach, and Dartmoor National Park, covering over 300 square miles of stunning open countryside, offers plenty for outdoor enthusiasts. Sailing and other water sports are available in the Tamar and Tavy estuaries. Fishing opportunities can also be arranged on the Tamar, Tavy, and Walkham rivers.
