Tucked away on the fringes of Yelverton within Dartmoor National Park, this detached two-bedroom bungalow sits in an unusually large, private plot with mature trees and level lawns. The single-storey layout includes two double bedrooms, two reception rooms plus a conservatory, offering comfortable, flexible living for those seeking ground-floor convenience in a peaceful rural setting. The property is offered chain free, making it straightforward for a buyer wanting to move quickly.
The house is ripe for modernisation and presents clear scope to put your own stamp on the interior and exterior. Key advantages include extensive gardens with wooded areas, ample driveway parking and a detached garage. The oil-fired boiler, dated fittings and an EPC rating of E45 mean upgrades to heating, insulation and windows will significantly improve comfort and running costs. External walls appear to be traditional granite/whinstone with little or no insulation.
Practical considerations are set out plainly: the bungalow requires renovation and garden clearance, the main heating is oil (not a communal supply), and the property sits in a relatively remote, low-crime location with average mobile signal. Council Tax sits at Band E. For buyers who value privacy and a large plot on Dartmoor’s edge, this home offers strong potential for extension or reconfiguration subject to planning.
This will suit downsizers who want single-storey living with space for gardening and outdoor leisure, or buyers looking to renovate a characterful property in a highly desirable, affluent area. The balance of peaceful seclusion and easy road links to Yelverton, Tavistock and Plymouth makes it practical as well as picturesque.
