This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached house sits on the edge of Ashburton within Dartmoor National Park, a short walk from the town centre. The home offers comfortable, traditional accommodation with gas central heating, uPVC double glazing and a large southwest-facing wrap-around garden that enjoys good sun and country views.
The plot is a major asset: generous lawn, patio with summer house and space with potential to create off-road parking. Importantly, planning permission (Dartmoor NP 0045/22) has been granted to build an additional three-bedroom detached dwelling on the garden, including four parking spaces, subject to a section 106 agreement — giving clear development or investment potential.
Practical points to note: the property is sold freehold but an occupancy restriction applies (you must have lived or worked in Devon for the required period). The EPC is rated E and some elements are dated (double glazing installed before 2002; cavity walls assumed uninsulated), so energy performance and insulation upgrades would improve running costs. The site has a medium flood risk — this should be checked by buyers' advisers.
Overall this is a family-friendly, commuter-accessible home in a desirable small-town setting. It will suit buyers seeking immediate comfortable living with scope to add value via planned development, insulation or cosmetic updates.
