Property description

DECEPTIVELY SPACIOUS DETACHED PERIOD COTTAGE, with extremely versatile accommodation situated in an IDYLLIC LOCATION between Dartmoor National Park and the city of Plymouth. Easy access to a wide range of local amenities, as well as extensive open countryside for those that enjoy riding out, walking or mountain biking. The property has been extended and improved by the current owners during their occupancy of over 30 years. Currently set up as a substantial four bedroom cottage with an integral one bedroom annexe that can be used independantly or incorporated into the cottage to create an even larger family home.Set in extensive gardens, with adjoining paddock, the property has a further paddock across the lane and the vendors have enjoyed keeping horses and sheep over the years as well as ducks and chickens. There is also a useful stable block and concrete yard. Retaining a wealth of charm and character this charming period home is located in one of the more favorable areas on the fringe of Dartmoor National Park and there is no doubt that these types of properties are coming considerably harder to find. The nearby maritime city of Plymouth offers a marina and a wealth of shopping, banking and retail opportunities as well as being a major commercial centre within the South West. The villages of Clearbrook and Yelverton as well as the pretty market town of Tavistock offer further amenities as well as the intrinsic charm of Dartmoor villages and towns...
