Summary - TORLANDS, NEWTON ABBOT, MANATON TQ13 9UA
2 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Quiet hamlet location with large garden and scope to extend STPP.
Detached two-bedroom bungalow on over ¼ acre plot
Set on over a quarter-acre in the quiet hamlet of Manaton, this detached two-bedroom bungalow offers a peaceful Dartmoor retreat with scope to personalise. The large, established gardens and outbuilding (with power, light and water) create immediate outdoor enjoyment and practical storage or workshop space. A generous driveway and car port provide parking for several vehicles—rare for such a tucked-away location.
The single-storey layout suits downsizers or anyone wanting level living; rooms are bright with garden views and character features such as exposed beams. There is clear potential to extend subject to planning permission (STPP) if more space is required. The property’s traditional granite walls and detached position deliver privacy and countryside character.
Buyers should note a number of practical issues: the home is older (constructed before 1900) with assumed uninsulated granite walls, an EPC rating of E, and oil-fired heating via boiler and radiators. The roof and some interior elements will benefit from modernization. Broadband is slow and mobile signal is average, reflecting the remoter rural setting. These are straightforward considerations for purchasers seeking a rural project with long-term energy and connectivity upgrades.
Overall, this bungalow will appeal to someone wanting turn-key outdoor space and a peaceful location now, with the option to invest and extend later. Its proximity to Dartmoor walks, Lustleigh and Bovey Tracey makes it a good base for countryside living and local village amenities.
