Property description
DESCRIPTION A characterful town house fronting West Street with wonderful views of St Andrews Church within the popular Dartmoor town of Ashburton. The property benefits from a courtyard garden immediately to the rear and a further lawned garden leading via stone steps from the courtyard. Having been upgraded and with some modernisation the house retains much character feel combined with modern living.
To the ground floor are two reception rooms as well as the Kitchen and WC/Cloakroom. An elegant curved staircase leads to the first floor where two bedrooms, bathroom and WC are situated. To the second floor are two further bedrooms.
All in all this is a superb town property and one which we believe deserves to be viewed internally to appreciate the accommodation on offer as well as the charming rear gardens.
LOCATION This is an ideal family home, with a large recreation park nearby containing a new, state-of-the-art skatepark and enclosed toddlers' play area. Ashburton swimming pool is a few minutes walk away and South Dartmoor Community College has fully equipped leisure facilities which are open to the public.
The highly regarded Primary School and Community College have academy status and are each an easy walk from the house. Sands School in East Street is also only a short distance away.
Ashburton also benefits from excellent transport links being approximately 7 miles from Totnes and Newton Abbot with their direct rail links to London Paddington and Plymouth. The town also lies just off the A38 Devon Expressway giving easy access to Plymouth and Exeter and the M5 beyond.
