2Detached Bungalow
2NO ONWARD CHAIN --- OPEN TO OFFERS
A dormer bungalow, situated on the edge of Bere Alston village, hidden away in a cul-de-sac, in a quiet but accessible setting for the countryside and amenities.
SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
Offered with no onward chain, a link-detached Dormer Bungalow which has been a family home for sixty years. The property benefits from being on the edge of the village but within easy reach of the local amenities and transport links including a regular bus and train station which connects to Plymouth.
The property requires updating but is in good order and offers mains gas central heating from a back boiler, PVCu double glazing and further insulation measures. This family home has versatile living spaces which could be used for different requirements. We have been advised that the dormer was added in the 1970's by the family, with a rear window looking out over the surrounding landscape. There is also a further eaves storage and ample space for a double bed and cupboards.
The property is approached from a brick paved driveway which is flanked by an attractive front garden and further brick paved paths leading to the entrance door. There is a section of lawn and low-level stone wall with flower beds and established shrub. There is a garage to the side of the property, with an up and over door, with power points and lighting. The plot is level and offers a further rear garden which is mainly laid to lawn and bounded by fencing, creating a secure and private space for pets and children. There is also a garden shed and further access down the side of the building.
Internally, you enter the home from a central hallway with and airing cupboard and doors off to various rooms. The sitting room is at the front of the dwelling, with a large window allowing plenty of light to enter. The back boiler and fireplace is central to the room and there is a stone surround. A further double bedroom is at the front of the property with another large window facing south. To the rear is a kitchen, with fitted cupboards and worktops, with a cooker and a washing machine that is included in the sale. There is ample space for a fridge freezer and a door to the side. The window in the kitchen looks out to the rear garden and there is space for a small breakfast table. A shower room is also at the rear with wash basin and WC. The dining room was originally a bedroom but now has a hard wood fixed staircase rising to the first-floor dormer bedroom. There are patio doors from this room into the conservatory, which get the best of the evening light and an ideal room to relax in, while looking out into the garden. The conservatory also has a radiator so it can be heated during cooler months of the year.
The property is ideal for those who enjoy a slice of village life without being immersed in the busier area. There are several lovely walks a short walk from the home, ideal for those who enjoy the Tamar Valley scenery. The village is ideally located for easy access to beautiful Devon and Cornwall beaches, plus Plymouth and Tavistock are within 20 mins by road.
Bere Alston is a village with lots to offer and is perfectly positioned away from main roads and the hustle of modern life. The village offers a rare local railway station which forms part of the Tamar Valley Line, connecting to the waterside village of Bere Ferrers and Calstock plus onto Plymouth City in around 20 minutes. There are also several shops including a post office stores with local bakery, two small supermarkets, butchers, hairdressers, café/restaurant, takeaway, pharmacy, doctors' surgery, primary school, public house, bus services and a garage with petrol station.
