Exeter Road, Okehampton, Devon, EX20

Set within an easy walk of the town, with level gardens, the property is in need of modernisation. The property has been tested and has Grade "B" Mundic (in parts of its footings), which means that although it is mortgageable the number of lenders who would lend on the property will be reduced. With high ceilings and working fireplaces, the property has its own charm.

Mundic Footing Solutions
The method is commonly known as: Twin-wall lining (also called structural lining or wall encapsulation) In technical terms, it may also be described as: Structural inner and outer leaf construction Concrete infill wall system Reinforced cavity wall replacement Permanent formwork encapsulation How it works A new inner wall is built inside the original mundic wall. A new outer wall may be built outside (if access allows). The cavity between them is filled with: Reinforced concrete, or Concrete blockwork tied structurally The new walls are tied into: Foundations Floors Roof structure The original mundic wall is effectively left non-structural. If it deteriorates, it cannot move or collapse because it is “sandwiched” and no longer load-bearing.

Location
Okehampton also benefits from good transport links. The town is located just off the A30 road (England), which provides a quick route to Exeter (around 23 miles away) and the M5 motorway, as well as connections west into Cornwall. Rail services have also improved since the reopening of the Dartmoor Line in 2021, with regular trains from Okehampton railway station to Exeter St Davids railway station taking around 40 minutes. These strong road and rail connections make Okehampton an attractive place to live while still offering easy access to the wider region.

Situation
Okehampton is a historic market town in West Devon, adjoining Dartmoor National Park. The town sits in a sheltered valley where the East Okement River and West Okement River meet, giving it direct access to the beautiful Dartmoor countryside and nearby landmarks such as High Willhays, the highest point on Dartmoor. The town has a long history dating back to Saxon times and grew around the historic Okehampton Castle. Today, Okehampton is a welcoming rural town that serves as a local centre for shops and services and is popular with walkers, cyclists, and visitors exploring the moors,
