Although located on the Northern edge of the small Devon town of North Tawton, surrounded by fields and with Dartmoor views, The Old Coach House is only a third of a mile from the centre of the town and all its amenities are within easy reach. Being in a cul de sac, there s no passing traffic, it s private and the large gardens encompass the house. The property was built in the 1980s by a local builder. Subject to obtaining any necessary approvals, the additional detached two bedroom annexe just across the courtyard might provide ancillary accommodation.

Internally, there s plenty of space on offer with large living spaces throughout. The kitchen dining room opens on to the rear courtyard and has a large additional walk in pantry and utility room which is a lovely addition. There s the option of cooking on a gas range or the AGA depending on the time of year and there s solid granite tops too. The main living room with its woodburner gives a cosy feel during the shorter winter days and in the summer, the large adjoining conservatory comes into its own. Drawing the garden inside, it s a great entertaining space which again opens out to the garden. The ground floor also has a dining room, that might alternatively be used as a snug or study, giving extra living space and flexibility plus the ever useful ground floor WC. The staircase is split level and gives access to the four bedrooms. The master bedroom has it s own shower room with walk in shower and the family bathroom serves the other bedrooms. There s a fifth room which was formerly a single bedroom but could be used as an office which houses the solar plant.

The annexe is a detached brick building offering two bedrooms and two bathrooms over the two floors. There s a great sized open plan living space with a well fitted kitchen. It s a home from home and feels substantial and welcoming.

Outside, the property is approached via a drive from the head of the cul de sac. The house can t be seen from the road but the drive sweeps in to an ample courtyard with plenty of parking. Within the boundary, the drive has recently been upgraded with a resin finish which is not only smart but practical. There s a double garage 5m x 6m with electric door which provides useful storage and lots of water butts utilise the roof run off. Dotted around the gardens are various seating areas to find or escape the sunshine depending on the time of day, each with a different feel. The entire plot extends to just under half an acre giving plenty of space to enjoy. Currently the garden is lawned, surrounded by hedging which provides a soft border to the surrounding fields.

This is a fantastic opportunity for two homes in one, all in a great plot and location with no onward chain.
