Set within almost an acre of orchard and paddock, this detached two‑bed bungalow offers peaceful rural living within easy reach of Modbury and South Hams beaches. The single‑storey layout is practical for downsizers or those seeking a low‑maintenance country base, with a sitting room featuring an open fire and a kitchen/diner opening to the garden.
The land is a key asset: post‑and‑rail fenced paddock suitable for horses or smallholding, generous lawned areas and mature trees provide privacy and wide countryside views. The plot and garage provide parking and storage for rural pursuits; there is clear potential to adapt or extend the property subject to planning permission.
Buyers should note material points: the property has an EPC rating of F, electric night storage heating, and timber‑frame walls with partial insulation, so thermal upgrading and modern heating may be required. Services are rural — private water supply and septic tank drainage — and the location has a high flooding risk which will affect insurance and any future alterations.
Overall this is a modest, well‑situated bungalow offering significant outdoor amenity and scope for improvement. It will suit purchasers prioritising land, privacy and countryside access who accept the practical, environmental and running‑cost considerations of a mid‑20th century rural home.
