Set on the very edge of Dartmoor, this detached stone bungalow offers direct access to open moorland and wide countryside views from a large, private plot. The single-storey layout, bay-windowed sitting room and mature gardens deliver immediate rural character and easy ground-floor living. Chain-free sale and single garage add practical convenience.
The bungalow was built in the 1920s and retains period features such as high ceilings and bay windows, while recent PVCu double glazing improves thermal performance. Accommodation includes three good-sized bedrooms, three reception rooms, a cellar, and a small kitchen with an adjoining breakfast room and Rayburn. Both the oil-fired boiler and the Rayburn provide heating and hot water, and there is a useful outbuilding and outside WC.
The property requires updating and some renovation throughout: the layout offers scope to create an open-plan kitchen/dining area, add ensuites where plumbing exists, or extend subject to planning in this National Park-edge location. Practical considerations include private drainage, oil heating, slow broadband in the village, and a Band F council tax charge. Viewing is advised to appreciate the plot, privacy and direct access to Dartmoor.
This home will suit buyers seeking a secluded country bungalow with strong potential to modernise or personalise, and those prioritising location and outdoor access over turnkey condition.
