Bovey Tracey is a popular and accessible Devon town also known as the “Gateway to the Moors” with the rugged slopes and tors of Dartmoor on the doorstep.

Other amenities include a health centre, veterinary clinic, library, primary school, restaurants, cafes, inns and churches. The town also benefits from good sporting facilities, including a swimming pool, sports field, 9-hole golf course, cricket pitch, bowling green, football pitches and tennis courts. There are also local cycle tracks such as the Wray Valley Trail leading to Moretonhampstead. The South Devon Coast with the sandy beaches and boating facilities of Teignmouth and Torbay is only a short distance away.

The A38 dual carriageway, linking Exeter and Plymouth to the M5 motorway is within two miles of the town and there are mainline railway stations to London Paddington at both Newton Abbot and Exeter. Exeter International Airport is within easy travelling distance. There are well regarded primary and secondary schools nearby, plus several independent schools.

Description

Built in 1997 and owned since new by the current owners, this well-presented home has been well cared for during that time. The property is traditionally constructed with attractive brick elevations below the pitched tiled roof and being set in an elevated location benefits from far reaching views to the south from the rear, also meaning the garden gets the best of the sun throughout the day.

Accommodation is laid out over two floors and briefly comprises of three bedrooms, one with an en suite shower and basin, family bathroom, living room, fitted kitchen, cloakroom/WC and conservatory. Outside there is a single garage with parking to the front, front garden and an attractive south facing rear garden. The property is presented in very good order inside and out and benefits from uPVC double glazing and gas central heating.

Accommodation

Stepping through the front door you can immediately tell that the current owners take pride in their home. Recently renewed carpets in a modern neutral shade extend throughout the house. Off the hallway is the cloakroom/WC just beyond which stairs rise to the first floor. At the end of the hall is the kitchen which was refitted only a few years ago with a range of flat fronted wood effect units above and below grey granite effect worksurfaces with an inset 11⁄2 bowl composite sink and drainer below the widow. Integrated appliances include an inset gas hob with extractor over, oven/grill, microwave and dishwasher. There is also space for a fridge/freezer. To one side of the room is a versatile breakfast bar. The back door opens to a covered area between the house and garage where the owners have ingeniously had low doors fitted to the side of the garage that open directly to the (not included in sale) washing and drying machines as well as a freezer. The sitting room looks to the font of the property with a gas coal effect fire and is open to the dining room and in turn the dining room is open to the conservatory providing another sitting area and lots of light to the living room.

On the first floor there are three bedrooms off the landing. The largest of which is to the rear of the house with terrific views over the surrounding area and countryside. This room also has an en suite shower and wash basin. Bedroom two is to the front and is also of a good size, and bedroom three is currently in use as a study. All three bedrooms have a range of fitted cupboards and wardrobes. The family bathroom has been fitted with a shower cubicle but could easily be changed back to a bath if required.

Outside

From the driveway paved steps lead down to the front of the house set just below the front garden area giving a feel of separation and privacy. There is plenty of space for bin storage and a further sloped path providing bin access. A wooden gate between the house and garage leads to a covered walkway past the aforementioned utility cupboards past the back door to the garden. A gate to the other side of the house accesses a side garden with raised vegetable beds and green house linked to the back garden. Steps from the conservatory lead out to the back garden which has been cleverly landscaped over two levels giving several different areas to enjoy. Immediately off the rear of the house is a terrace with a covered seating area, the terrace then extends to a wooden summer house at the back of the garage. A brick paved path with flower borders winds down through a topiary arch to the lower garden where there is a further terrace with space for garden furniture and garden shed. A brick paved path borders the conservatory below which is a rockery, he path then leads round to the side of the property and the vegetable planters. The garden is bordered with wooden fencing and hedging and benefits from an usually high degree of privacy from the neighbouring properties. The single garage has an up and over door, power and light.
