An incredible detached home in a breath-taking, edge-of-moor location outside of Tavistock, with large garden, pool house and staggering potential. For Sale by Informal Tender, Tenders by 12:00pm Thursday 11/11/21, Remarkable Moorland Residence, Spectacular Position, Direct Access to Dartmoor, Staggering Potential, Large Enclosed Garden, Garages and Storage Outbuildings, Detached Pool House, No Chain. EPC Band: F
Situation - This property occupies a prominent and spectacular position on the very edge of Dartmoor, within the quiet, unspoilt hamlet of Middlemoor on Tavistock's south-eastern fringe. Surrounded by open moorland, the property is ideally positioned for those who enjoy the great outdoors or are otherwise keen on walking, riding, cycling or exploring, and both the town's Golf and Cricket clubs are within easy reach. Another advantage to the property's position is its south-westerly aspect, which will afford the house and garden a good deal of natural light. Middlemoor itself is a small hamlet on a no-through lane, containing only a couple of dozen properties. It sits just outside of Tavistock and Whitchurch, yet is within close enough proximity to benefit from all of the town's facilities and amenities. Tavistock is a thriving market town in West Devon, rich in history and tradition dating to the 10th century. Today, the town offers a superb range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities, including the sought-after private and independent school, Mount Kelly. Plymouth, with its coastal access, is 14.5 miles to the south. The cathedral city of Exeter lies 40 miles to the northeast, providing railway and motorway connections to the rest of the UK, plus an international airport.
Description - This fascinating property, presented to the market for the first time in over half a century, represents a once-in-a-lifetime chance to acquire a substantial and completely unique home with astonishing potential, positioned on the boundary of Dartmoor National Park. The house enjoys an enclosed plot amounting to 0.55 acres in all (see our accompanying location plan), immediately beyond the borders of which are Whitchurch Down and the full expanse of the open moors, with all its rugged and picturesque scenery. The house itself is interesting and full of character, effectively being arranged in two halves; it is believed a row of traditional cottages, possibly dating to the mid-1800s, originally stood on the site, with some of them making way at some stage in the late 19th or very early 20th century for the larger element now forming the principal part of the building. Today, the house provides 4 bedrooms, 3 receptions and various ancillary spaces, all with huge scope for improvement or remodelling (including the potential to create an annexe), subject to consents or approvals as required. Finally, within the garden is a detached pool house, two garages, and several sheds and stores.
Accommodation - The property's front entrance is beneath a colonial-style covered veranda, leading directly into an impressive reception hall. There are doors to the sitting and dining rooms, plus a split staircase to the first floor and a useful WC beneath. The sitting room has two sets of French doors overlooking the gardens and a conservatory at the far end. The dining room falls within the older part of the house, evidenced by its beamed ceiling and panelled walls. This leads, in turn, to a day room with a gas-fired Rayburn, beyond which are a larder and the kitchen. The galley-style kitchen has a door leading out to the parking area and also features a large pantry to one side. The main staircase splits in one direction to the principal landing, off of which are two large double bedrooms, both of which overlook the garden, and the bathroom. In the other direction, within the older element, are two further bedrooms, one of which has a second staircase leading back down into the day room.
Outside - The house is complemented externally by large lawn garden enclosed on all sides by hedging and Devon banks. To one side is a double timber gate leading directly onto Whitchurch Down. The garden offers myriad possibilities for the active family and hobby gardener alike, with plenty of space for hard or soft landscaping, or planting and horticulture. Across from the house is the pool house, containing an indoor heated pool serviced by an adjoining pump room and with patio doors to the garden. To the side of the house is a courtyard enclosed by stone walling, with a garden store off. A solid timber, former church door between granite pillars leads out to a parking area, where there is access to two garages. The open moors lie beyond, offering limitless opportunities for exploration and adventure.
Services - All mains-supplied services are connected (water, electricity, gas, drainage). Please note that the Agents have neither inspected nor tested these services.
