Set in 0.74 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens, this individual and well-maintained four double-bedroom detached bungalow enjoys a peaceful and private location right on the edge of Dartmoor, at Yeoland Down.

SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
Positioned on the edge of Dartmoor at Yeoland Down, this exceptional property offers both privacy and convenience. Its location makes commuting into either Plymouth or Tavistock straightforward, while the village of Yelverton is just two miles to the north.

Dartmoor National Park is literally on the doorstep, making this an ideal base for walkers, cyclists, horse riders, and anyone drawn to the great outdoors. Surrounding the home is green countryside in every direction.

Built in 1968 and owned by the same family ever since, this charming and exceptionally well-maintained home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a property with such space and potential. With four large double bedrooms, a flexible layout, and rooms overlooking the vibrant gardens, it offers a calm and comfortable environment. There may also be potential to extend the existing footprint or convert the loft, subject to planning permission.

The gardens are a particular highlight, having been lovingly landscaped and maintained over the years. The gated driveway provides secure access and leads to a double garage.

The layout is thoughtfully arranged with level access throughout. Entry is via a sheltered porch leading into a welcoming central hallway. The main living space is a bright, dual-aspect sitting room featuring a wood-burning stove. From here, sliding doors open to a separate dining area, which in turn connects to a bespoke conservatory with three walls of glass.

The kitchen, fitted with a range of modern cabinets and quartz worktops, includes a 5-ring gas hob, integrated Miele double oven, composite sink, and space for a dishwasher and full-height fridge/freezer. A separate utility room provides space for laundry appliances and outdoor access.

The principal bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room finished in elegant marble tiling. There are three additional generously sized double bedrooms and a modern, fully tiled family bathroom. Each room benefits from views over the surrounding gardens, creating a light and uplifting atmosphere throughout.

Outside, the gated driveway offers parking for several vehicles and access to the double garage, which includes lighting, power, a remote-controlled roller door, and an inspection pit; ideal for vehicle maintenance enthusiasts.
The surrounding gardens are thoughtfully designed and include a variety of mature trees, flowering shrubs, and carefully maintained borders. To the rear, a wide patio spans the length of the home and opens onto a lawned garden with fruit trees; including apple, pear, and plum and berry bushes.

The overall plot, extending to roughly 0.74 acres, offers scope for further development such as an annexe or outbuildings, subject to the necessary permissions. The outdoor space is a haven for keen gardeners and those who simply enjoy spending time in nature.

The property is close to amenities in Yelverton, which has a useful selection of shops, including the Co-op supermarket, a delicatessen, hairdressers, garage, doctor’s surgery, and dentist. The ancient stannary town of Tavistock is around 6 miles to the north, and it is particularly well located for a commute to the historic naval port of Plymouth about 10 miles to the south. Yelverton has regular bus services to both Tavistock and Plymouth, where the national rail network provides connections to London and countless other destinations. Plymouth also has cross-channel ferry services to both France and Spain, and has excellent sailing facilities, while Dartmoor National Park is on your doorstep. For golfers, the golf club is a stone’s throw away.
