SITUATION
This detached bungalow is situated within a located in a well-regarded area of Tavistock, approximately 500 yards from open moorland at Whitchurch Down yet within extremely easy reach of all of the town's amenities and facilities, including shops, schools and transport links.. The bungalow benefits from an elevated position which affords attractive, westerly countryside views from the rear-facing windows and the garden. Tavistock is a thriving market town in West Devon, rich in history and tradition dating back to the 10th century. Today, the town offers a superb range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities, including the sought-after private and independent school, Mount Kelly, whilst the largely 19th-century town centre is focused around the Pannier Market and Bedford Square, in which regular farmer's markets are held. Plymouth, some 15 miles to the south, offers extensive amenities with the added attraction of its coastal access and the Mayflower Marina. The cathedral city of Exeter lies some 40 miles to the northeast, providing transport connections to London and the rest of the UK via its railway links and the M5 motorway.

DESCRIPTION
Having been built for its original and only owners, circa 1960, this individual bungalow is now offered to the open market, chain-free, for the very first time. The accommodation is bright, and offers great versatility, and now offers tremendous scope for modernisation and alteration, including the potential for remodelling and extension - either outwards or upwards - subject to any necessary consents and approvals. The bungalow is complemented externally by attractive front and rear gardens, with the rear garden in particular being a good size, in addition to a garage and driveway parking for several vehicles. The property presents an excellent opportunity for a new owner to create a practical, comfortable home, with the added appeal of being within a short distance of the town centre and open moorland.

ACCOMMODATION
The property is accessed from the front into an open, central hallway, although it has the added benefit of a convenient side entrance from the driveway into the kitchen. The accommodation briefly comprises a rear-facing sitting room with an electric fireplace and large French doors opening out onto the garden, a dual-aspect dining room (or potential third bedroom), separate kitchen, two double bedrooms - one front-facing and one rear-facing, plus a bathroom and separate WC. Of particular note is the opportunity to reconfigure the accommodation for modern living; it would no doubt be possible, with the relevant permissions and approvals, to create a large kitchen/dining room opening the existing rooms into each other. Alternatively, the roles of the current dining room and second bedroom could be reversed. There is ample space at the rear of the bungalow to consider an extension, creating further options, and it may also be possible to extend into the high-pitch loft space, again subject to any necessary consents or approvals.

OUTSIDE
To the front of the property there is a pretty lawn garden with planted borders set back from a low-rise wall, featuring a selection of colourful shrubs and plants. The property has the advantage of having a single garage with power and lighting connected, plus a private driveway suitable for additional parking for several vehicles and a side entrance gate to the rear of the property. The rear garden is has historically been well-maintained with planted borders, a variety of specimen shrubs and ornamental plants. A paved path runs down the lawn and there is a timber shed to one side. Within the garden there is plenty of space and huge opportunity for budding horticulturalists and those looking to establish a productive vegetable garden. At the top of the garden, outside of the sitting toom, there is a paved, southwest-facing sun terrace, perfect for entertaining family and friends or just to sit back, relax and enjoy the country views.
