Description
Yelverton provides a useful selection of shops, a bank, garage and hotel, whilst the ancient stannary town of Tavistock 6 miles and the historic naval port of Plymouth about 10 miles collectively offer extensive educational, recreational, cultural and shopping facilities. The community is served by local buses and county bus services whilst the A386 Tavistock to Plymouth road facilitates easy access to the A38, just north of Plymouth and the A30 at Sourton, both dual carriageways to Exeter and the M5 motorway. Sporting and leisure facilities in the area are excellent. The Dartmoor National Park extends to over 300 sq. miles and provides ample opportunities for walking and riding. Sailing and other water sports are available within the Tamar and Tavy estuaries as well as from a number of venues along the south coast. Whilst there are golf courses at Yelverton, Tavistock, Saltash and St Mellion. There are also opportunities to fish by arrangement on the rivers Tamar, Tavy and Walkham.
DESCRIPTION A rare and exceptional example of a contemporary home built in 2007 and nestled within the boundary of Dartmoor National Park. The property offers a wide range of energy efficient and sustainable products and materials. It was constructed by Tortown developments using a variety of natural local Yennadon stone cladding materials and an insulated concrete Beco wallform. The property has a Worcester Bosch Geotherm underground heating system providing underfloor heating throughout combined with solar panels for hot water and specialist designed low energy lighting resulting in ultra low running costs. Landscaped gardens encompass the house which complement the views across the tranquil Dartmoor countryside with Sheeps Tor on the horizon. There is also an adjoining paddock of approximately 1 acre with stock proof fencing and the possibility of acquiring a further paddock of approximately 2 acres subject to separate negotiation.
The inverted accommodation capitalises on the stunning views and a wrap around balcony along the front of the house which is ideal for entertaining. The open plan full height sitting room opens onto the balcony and offers a light and airy space with a glass cupola above the centre of the room allowing even more light into the heart of the home. The accommodation comprises a hall, open plan sitting room with kitchen and dining areas, study, shower room and utility room. To the lower ground floor are four bedrooms, three with en suite facilities, family bathroom and a playroom/office which could make an ideal cinema room. There is also a plant room housing the heating system and inner hall leading to the gardens. Outside there is an integral double garage with a large sweeping gravelled driveway.
