Property description

Situated on the southern edge of Dartmoor National Park in the popular village of Sparkwell, is 'Melwood' which is believed to have been built in 1840's by Isambard Kingdom Brunel. The property has undergone numerous transformations over the years and has been sympathetically restored to provide both modern day benefits whilst retaining numerous period features. The property has a generous size entrance hall with built-in storage cupboards, stairs rising to the first floor accommodation and with access to the ground floor. There is a bay fronted lounge with feature fireplace and inset log burner, a separate dining room, a modern fitted kitchen with opening through to a glazed pitched roof breakfast room which overlooks the rear garden and surrounding countryside. Also on the ground floor there is a study, utility room, cloakroom/w.c. and a play room/bedroom four. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom with four piece suite incorporating a wash hand basin, w.c., panelled bath and a walk-in shower cubicle. To the front of the property there is a gated gravelled driveway which provides off-road parking for up to four vehicles. To the rear there is a generous size enclosed garden which backs onto Sparkwell Golf Course. The garden is mainly laid to lawn and has a barbecue seating area.

Sparkwell offers an excellent range of facilities including a small Montessori school, a village hall, church and an award winning public house and restaurant. Local residents have free entry to Dartmoor Zoo and we understand that within the deeds of 'Melwood' there are provisions of free golf at Sparkwell Golf Course. The village enjoys all the advantages of rural living but is situated only a ten minutes drive from a wide range of amenities in Plympton and provides easy access to A38.

This beautifully presented property offers spacious accommodation to any potential purchaser and a fantastic outlook over Sparkwell Gold Course and the surrounding countryside. The property has double glazing and oil fired central heating.
