Situation - This substantial house is situated in an enviable position along a quiet residential lane within the sought-after West Devon village of Crapstone, which is popular for its proximity to Roborough Down, the nearby village of Yelverton, the town of Tavistock and the city of Plymouth. The edge of the Dartmoor National Park is just a few hundred yards away, providing unlimited opportunities for walking, riding, cycling and exploring, all on the doorstep. For all day-to-day amenities, Yelverton is just 1.5 miles away. The parade of shops features a mini-supermarket, local butchers, delicatessen, cafe and pharmacy, whilst the village also provides a GP Surgery, Texaco fuel station, Post Office and Veterinary Surgery, as well as a selection of eateries and a popular Free House, The Rock Inn. For the sports enthusiast, there are golf, cricket, tennis and bowling clubs. The thriving market town of Tavistock, 6 miles to the north, offers extensive further facilities, including the sought-after private and independent school, Mount Kelly. Plymouth, some 10 miles to the south, offers the added attraction of its coastal access and the Mayflower Marina, whilst Derriford Hospital is just 7 miles away on the northern fringe of the city. A mainline rail service runs from Plymouth to London, with the A38 providing road links to the M5 at Exeter.

Description - This very substantial, modern yet characterful family home, was built in 1989 and has been in our clients' ownership since they purchased the property off-plan. Built of cavity masonry beneath a natural slate roof, with an attractive tiled façade, the house provides over 2,850sq.ft of bright and spacious accommodation, with various character elements including timber sash windows, a bespoke Treyone kitchen and fitted furniture, coved ceilings and parquet flooring. Outside, there is a gated driveway and double garage, whilst at the rear and side of the house are beautiful south-facing gardens with a private sun patio. Adding further possibilities for a purchaser, the current owners have gained planning consent to build a new dwelling in part of the grounds, which involves separating some of the garden space, plus the demolition and re-siting of part of the existing dwelling. This will no doubt appeal to self-build enthusiasts, those seeking options for two-family occupancy on the site, or those with a commercial outlook.

Accommodation - The accommodation is accessed on the ground floor through a canopied entrance porch with moulded corbels into a large reception hallway, from where there are doors to the principal reception rooms, the kitchen and a ground floor cloakroom. The sitting room is a 22', dual-aspect room with patio doors leading out to the garden, and a custom fitted TV and shelving unit. Opposite the sitting room is the dining room and there is a further snug sitting room with patio doors, which would make an excellent hobbies or play room, found en route to the kitchen. The superb Treyone Kitchen is finished with granite work surfaces, an electric Aga and a complete range of integrated appliances, including a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, Neff induction hob and triple-function oven, grill and microwave with plate warmer below. A fitted TV and DVD player is fitted to the overhead cupboards. Beyond the kitchen is the beautiful, vaulted garden room, which also leads out to the garden, plus a walk-in pantry, utility room, rear boot room, boiler cupboard and the double garage. The garage has an electric roller-shutter door, work benches, plus the usual power and lighting connections. An elegant staircase from the reception hall rises to the first floor landing, which gives access to each of the bedrooms and family bathroom. The spacious master bedroom is fitted with his-and-hers wardrobes and benefits from an attractive 4-piece en-suite. The second and third bedrooms also have fitted wardrobes and sash windows overlooking the gardens. The fourth bedroom, a potential guest suite, enjoys the use of an en-suite shower room, with the fifth bedroom currently used a study, complete with shelving and storage. The family bathroom again comes with a modern 4-piece suite.

Outside - The house is accessed via electric gates into the enclosed drive, to one side of which is the double garage. The main garden is situated to the rear of the house, being mostly laid to lawn and with established, planted beds and borders filled with mature trees and shrubs. A slate-chipped pathway to one side leads to a further area of secret garden, containing a timber tool shed. Off the house's western flank, outside of the garden room, is a delightful sun patio, perfect for sitting out in privacy during the warm summer evenings. In all, the plot amounts to 0.31 acres.

Services - Mains water (metered), electricity, gas and drainage are all connected to the house. There is gas-fired central heating throughout.

Agent's Note - Planning - Our clients have obtained full planning consent from West Devon Borough Council for a new 2-storey detached dwelling. Initial works have commenced. Plans are available on the WDBC planning portal (ref: 2173/16/FUL), or through Stags Tavistock Office.
