Situation - This most appealing property is nestled into a private and sheltered position within Tuckermarsh, a quiet and unspoilt settlement just outside of the large village of Bere Alston, on the Bere peninsula. The house enjoys some pleasant views towards the river Tamar, and the Cornish village of Calstock with its iconic railway viaduct. Bere Alston is a perennially popular village located in the picturesque countryside of rural West Devon. The village is well-served by local amenities and facilities, including a Co-op mini-market, butchers and Post Office, and also benefits from a direct 25-minute rail service to Plymouth City Centre. Bere Alston forms the hub of an area known as the Bere peninsula, created by the confluence of the rivers Tamar and Tavy, which itself falls within the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The verdant wooded banks of the Tamar Valley, along the Devon/Cornwall border, offer superb opportunities to discover the region's rich heritage. The thriving market town of Tavistock, forming part of a designated World Heritage Site, is 7 miles away, offering a superb range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities, including the sought-after private school, Mount Kelly.

Description - This wonderful country property offers an outstanding mix of quality and comfort, in a truly delightful, verdant countryside setting which benefits from having no overlooking neighbours. The well-proportioned, 3 double bedroom period house has been extended, refurbished and meticulously maintained by our client to create a warm and characterful home which benefits from excellent natural light and an attractive outlook from most of the principal rooms. Externally, the house is served by a triple garage, sweeping carriage drive, extensive formal lawn gardens, several useful garden outbuildings, an orchard and a half-acre paddock, providing ample space for further alteration or extension (STP).

Accommodation - The living accommodation is presented in superb condition, with tasteful fixtures and fittings in a contemporary style throughout, incorporating engineered oak flooring, character detailing and bespoke hardwood double glazed windows. The house is deceptively sized, amounting to just over 1,900sq.ft in total and offering several reception rooms and three double bedrooms. On the ground floor, the central hallway gives access to a cosy sitting room with a multi-fuel stove, separate dining room, WC, modern kitchen, and a bright and airy morning room which has patio doors and enjoys an open outlook over the gardens. The kitchen is equipped with an excellent range of units and Corian worksurfaces, including a Rangemaster 5-ring induction hob and oven. There is a separate utility/laundry room beyond the dining room. Off the galleried first floor landing are the three double bedrooms - all naturally well lit - and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is served by an en-suite shower room and walk-in dresser.

Outside - The house is approached over a sweeping, gated drive which circles around a large oak tree and provides ample parking. Additionally, there is a triple garage/workshop off the drive and an external WC attached to the house. The gardens surround the house, are mainly level, sheltered and largely west-facing, ensuring good sunlight through the majority of the day. There are formal front and side lawns leading on to a larger main garden interspersed with several specimen trees and joined by a small mixed orchard to one side. At the far end is a paddock-style garden of half an acre, which could be adapted for different uses including as a large vegetable garden. Within the gardens are a solid timber garden store with a slate roof, plus a greenhouse and small livestock building in the paddock. Undoubtedly, the gardens will attract plenty of local wildlife.

Services And Outgoings - Mains water and electricity, septic tank (only 2 years old), oil-fired central heating. Council Tax Band E (£2,621.15 p/a for 2021/22). Please note that the agents have neither inspected nor tested any services.
