3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Bannawell Street, Tavistock, Devon PL19

Charming 3-Bed Period Home In Tavistock With Modern Comforts

Nestled in the heart of the historic stannary town of Tavistock, 31 Bannawell Street is a spectacular semi-detached home that seamlessly marries traditional character with the ultimate in modern luxury. Having undergone a comprehensive, no-expense-spared transformation between 2024 and 2026, this property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a home where all the hard work has been meticulously completed. The property has been stripped back to its core and rebuilt to an exacting standard, focusing heavily on structural integrity, energy efficiency, and premium finishes. Behind the attractive traditional facade lies a home that feels entirely new. The extensive envelope works include a brand-new roof with fresh tiling, felt, and integrated guttering, alongside fully cleaned and capped chimneys. Internally, the house has been future-proofed from the ground up: Every wall has been stripped back, waterproofed, tanked, and lined with high-performance Celotex insulation before being replastered. The attic is fully insulated and boarded, ensuring excellent thermal efficiency. Completely rewired with a modern consumer unit housed in a dedicated utility cupboard, and entirely replumbed with a new gas boiler, underfloor heating, and contemporary radiators, the property offers complete peace of mind and effortless comfort.

The ground floor living spaces have been thoughtfully redesigned for modern living and entertaining. The inviting lounge centres around a cozy log burner, set into a professionally cleaned and lined chimney with a handsome new mantelpiece. Moving through the home, the heart of the house is the magnificent open-plan kitchen and dining area. The kitchen has been beautifully opened out, featuring a stylish central island, integrated appliances, and new patio doors. Where a dated utility once stood, a structurally engineered, fully insulated dining room extension now sits under a flat resin roof. Bathed in natural light, this expansive dining area features further patio doors that blur the line between indoor and outdoor living. Upstairs, there is a spacious hallway and the theme of luxury continues. The master bedroom is a triumph of character restoration, featuring an exposed stone chimney breast, expertly tanked and framed by a beautiful cast iron fireplace and mantel. The remaining bedrooms are equally pristine, fully insulated, and decorated in a timeless, neutral palette. The family bathroom has been completely reimagined into a spa-like sanctuary, completely tiled and boasting an oversized walk-in shower, twin washbasins, and integrated spotlighting.

The outdoor space is a private, low-maintenance haven. The courtyard was dug out, fitted with French drains, and the rear elevation and boundary walls were fully tanked and painted. Now laid with sleek new paving, the courtyard boasts a built-in barbecue area, custom seating, and atmospheric outdoor lighting-offering the perfect, secluded microclimate for alfresco dining and evening relaxation, there are also terraced gardens, with views of the Viaduct, across Tavistock and beyond. 31 Bannawell Street is far more than a standard renovation; it is a complete, top-to-bottom transformation executed with care, vision, and structural excellence. A viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the hidden quality and exquisite finish of this exceptional Tavistock home.
