A substantial detached bungalow situated in 0.75 acres of gardens, in a semi-rural setting on Dartmoor. Located on the outskirts of Dousland, the property is not far from the village shops and amenities in Yelverton as well as nearby walks at Burrator Reservoir. The original bungalow is believed to have been built in the 1940s and has been extended over the years to provide spacious accommodation throughout including three double bedrooms, a study, two reception rooms and a large sun room overlooking the garden.
You enter the property to a useful porch then into the main hallway with the all bedroom accommodation to the right. There are two very good size bedrooms, both with fitted cupboards and one with an en suite, and a third smaller double bedroom. What was a fourth bedroom has been opened up into the hallway to provide a sunny study, with some nice views over the garden. Next is a spacious sitting room with a log burner, which has an opening in to an equally spacious dining room. The dining room has sliding patio doors out on to the garden which is a nice feature. At the rear is a kitchen/breakfast room with plenty of cupboards and an oil-fired Rayburn plus a utility room. An impressive 25ft sun room has been added to the front, which has superb views over the garden and is a lovely spot to sit for a morning coffee.
The mature gardens are a real feature with many points of interest including a pond, raised beds and granite rockery. There are mature trees dotted around the garden with a path from the driveway leading up to the front of the bungalow. There are multiple flowerbeds with year round colour and fruit tree cages near the vegetable plots. At the top of the garden is a raised summerhouse, with an area outside the patio doors for entertaining. A babbling stream borders the bottom of the garden, which is where you will also find the stable block. Although this property doesn't have any additional land with it, it does border nearby fields which may be able to be rented privately for horses. Finally, there is a double garage with electric roller door and parking for multiple vehicles.
