A character-filled Victorian terrace offering a practical family layout and rare direct access onto Castle Meadow. The house sits elevated on Alpha Terrace with clear views of Totnes Castle and a pleasant rear garden that opens straight onto the meadow — ideal for children’s play and riverside walks. The open-plan ground floor, granite kitchen worktops and clean-air wood-burning stove combine period charm with considered modern updates. Solar panels and an EPC band C support lower running costs.
The accommodation spreads over three floors, with three bedrooms on the first floor and a spacious attic room currently used as a fourth bedroom or home studio. Practical features include a ground-floor utility, modern shower room and mains gas central heating. The property is chain free and within comfortable walking distance of the High Street and Totnes station, making school runs and commuting straightforward.
Buyers should note a few material points: the mid-terrace walls are original solid brick (no confirmed added insulation), so additional insulation work may be needed to maximise thermal performance. Double glazing is in place but install date is unknown. On-street parking is available via a permit (£30 per year) and there is no private driveway. Crime statistics for the immediate area are higher than average, which prospective buyers should consider.
Overall this is a well-located family home with strong lifestyle appeal — character features, ecological upgrades and direct meadow access — but with some retrofit and parking considerations to factor into a decision.
