Occupying a generous plot of approaching 1 acre on the fringes of the popular moorland village of Lydford, and enjoying superb, uninterrupted views over surrounding countryside towards Brentor Church. A large, detached. dormer bungalow currently arranged as a comfortable home and annexe, but just as suitable for a large family. Ample parking for several cars. Detached double garage. Range of outbuildings.
SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
This large, detached dormer bungalow affords spacious and versatile living accommodation arranged over two floors (with a cellar beneath) currently arranged as a three bedroomed family home with a one bedroomed annexe, perfect for relatives or to provide a useful letting income. However, the layout of rooms, with minor alteration, would also be suitable for use as a large family home.
The bungalow stands in a particularly generous plot of approaching 1 acre. To the front, an iron 5 bar gate leads to a large, gravelled parking and turning area, sufficient for several vehicles, and provides access to the detached (concrete sectional with renewed roof) garage with two up and over doors. Adjacent to the garage is a covered wood store, perfect for seasoning logs for the fire, next to two former stables now used for the storage of tools and garden machinery.
At the rear, the sunny, south facing garden is arranged in two halves, separated by a post and rail fence, to allow separate use by the home and annexe. This arrangement works well but could be easily reversed by removing the fence. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn, gently sloping, and interspersed with various plants, trees and shrubs designed to provide an array of seasonal colour. There is a pond with running water feature, small orchard, soft fruit cage, composting corner, greenhouse, and various seating areas from which to overlook the garden and take in the stunning views extending across the surrounding Devon countryside towards Blackdown and Brentor church.
The ancient village of Lydford is very conveniently located midway between the market towns of Tavistock and Okehampton which lie approximately eight and nine miles respectively. Providing a full range of facilities including two local pubs, farm shop and a well-regarded county primary school, extensive amenities for those with equestrian interests including outriding on the numerous local bridleways as well as an active church.
Tavistock is a thriving market town adjoining the western edge of the Dartmoor National Park fantastic for walking, cycling, and riding. This vibrant and friendly town hosts a wealth of restaurants and cafes selling locally produced food. Enjoy some shopping with the vast range of local independent shops, the bustling pannier market and award-winning farmers’ market. Primary and secondary education both state and private is well catered for in local schools. The Meadows located in the centre of the town provides a children’s play area, a bandstand, a sensory garden, tennis courts, bowling club and plenty of open space. Indeed, Tavistock can claim to have everything adding up to a quality of life which would be hard to rival.
Plymouth is only 15 miles away with fast Inter City rail links to London, Bristol, and the North. There are also ferry services to Roscoff, Brittany and Santander, Northern Spain.
