Bere Alston edge

A very well positioned detached 2 bedroom bungalow in need of complete modernisation on the market for the first time in many years and with fantastic potential for the creation of a lovely home in a great spot.

The property is located on the edge of the much favoured village of Bere Alston, which is near the River Tamar, being a busy, pretty village surrounded by beautiful countryside with good walks and with adequate shopping and other facilities, including one of the top primary schools in the county. The village is situated approximately 6 miles from Tavistock and about 10 miles from Plymouth. There is a regular train service to and from Plymouth and a regular bus service to and from Tavistock.

Tavistock is approximately 6 miles away and is a thriving market town situated on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park. It has been voted top of a list of 120 market towns in 2004 in a survey run by the Council for the Protection of Rural England in its countryside character campaign based on retaining individuality and distinctiveness, sensitive planning and new development, architecture, sense of history, thriving shops and business, and community spirit. It has good shopping facilities, a full range of state schools plus the renowned Kelly College and Mount House public school, including preparatory and sixth form colleges. Recreational facilities include golf courses, cricket, rugby, football and tennis clubs and all indoor sports. Scenic walks abound. Tavistock is 15 miles from Plymouth where there is an airport offering regular internal and continental flights, a cross Channel ferry service to Brittany and northern Spain and a British Rail Inter City service to London, Bristol and the North.

A well positioned detached bungalow on the market for the first time in many years located in an elevated position on the outskirts of the village opposite open countryside. Whilst in need of complete modernisation the accommodation is both spacious and versatile, having been extended also many years ago. The property is mainly Upvc double-glazed and there is an oil fired central heating system with a boiler in the garage (not tested). The accommodation flows well but lends itself to alteration and enhancement. From the entrance hall doors lead to the kitchen and the main bedroom at the front of the property. The hall runs through to the rear with further doors to the bathroom, the very spacious sitting room and also the dining room from where there is an arch to the sun room which can also be accessed via a door from the sitting room. The second bedroom is accessed by a door also from the sitting room and has access to the rear garden as well.

Outside, the bungalow is accessed from the front over a driveway which provides good level parking and leads to an integral garage. The gardens are mainly hard landscaped to the front and rear, are also in need of attention and re-cultivation.
