A three bedroom end terrace house situated in the Dartmoor village of Crapstone, near Yelverton. Formerly the village shop and post office, the house now has change of use granted in April 2024 for residential purposes, with the vendors carrying out most of the work to make the former shop unit feel like a comfortable living space as well as achieving planning permission for a sizeable rear/side extension.
You currently enter the property to the side into a hallway area leading to the kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen has an attractive view over the garden with a good array of units and space for a small breakfast table in the corner. The bathroom has an immaculate white suite with an electric shower over the bath and fully tiled walls. There is another hallway leading to the dining room with stairs to the first floor and rear door and window. The dining room is a good size with a door leading out to a long store/utility room, which would form part of the new extension. At the front of the house is a spacious sitting room with quality wooden flooring, modern track lighting and the former shop window allowing plenty of light. Upstairs are three bedrooms, with the master spanning the width of the front of the house with two windows and an original fireplace adding a touch of character.
Externally the gardens are mostly laid to lawn with a pretty flower bed to the left hand side and a path leading to the garage, potting shed and patio area. There is also a gravelled area directly outside the back door. The potting shed is a useful addition and offers plenty of storage along with the single garage. The vendors have increased the amount of parking to the front of the house with space for three cars and a raised bed to the side.
Plans for the extension can be found under the reference number: 2415/24/HHO on West Devon Borough Councils planning section. The plans include a new front entrance, side extension, utility room + WC and the remodelling of the front windows with a period style veranda.
