Spacious rural home with large gardens, outbuildings and strong renovation potential.
Half-acre plot with panoramic countryside views
Set on about half an acre with commanding countryside views, this detached three-bedroom dormer bungalow offers spacious outdoor amenity and private parking. The raised living/dining room with picture windows and wood burner creates a bright, sociable heart to the home, while the principal bedroom occupies the first-floor dormer with its own ensuite and the same far-reaching outlook. Outbuildings, garage and a summerhouse add practical storage and workshop space for hobbies or garden projects.
The house is of traditional construction (pre-1900 granite/stone plinth, slate roofs) and benefits from double glazing and solar panels. Accommodation includes a fitted kitchen with utility, two ground-floor double bedrooms, family bathroom and the first-floor principal bedroom with ensuite. The generous, sloping lawns, planted borders and vegetable patch provide plenty of scope for family life, entertaining and growing produce.
Important practical points: heating is by an oil-fired boiler to radiators (not on a community system), and the walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, so energy running costs may be higher than modern homes. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is average — factors to consider if regular home working or heavy internet use is required. Council tax is described as expensive. The property shows potential for modest internal reconfiguration or extensions (subject to planning), making it well-suited to buyers wanting to adapt a rural home to their needs.
This is a good match for families or purchasers seeking space, privacy and strong outdoor amenity in a small rural community, within easy reach of Totnes for shops, rail connections and services. The village has a primary school, pub and church nearby, while the A38 and Totnes station give wider regional access.
