Description

Nestled in a peaceful cul-de-sac on the outskirts of Tavistock, this semi-detached house presents a promising canvas for those looking to modernize or expand their living space. With no onward chain, you can begin your renovation journey without delay. Constructed in 1974, the property has been well-maintained and retains many of its original features, including a spacious conservatory that adds natural light to the home. The layout includes three generously sized bedrooms and a family bathroom on the upper level, while the ground floor boasts an open-plan lounge and dining area with patio doors that lead directly to the garden. A fitted kitchen and welcoming hallway complete the ground floor configuration. The outdoor space is particularly appealing, featuring well-tended gardens that back onto charming open fields, allowing for serene views and beautiful sunsets. Practical amenities include gas central heating, double-glazing for energy efficiency, a garage, and driveway parking. Orchard Close is part of a development established in the 1970s, set against a backdrop rich in history—once home to Abbotsfield Hall, which acted as the Divisional Headquarters for an American Infantry Division during World War II. The location combines modern convenience with historical significance. This property not only offers comfortable living but also presents ample opportunity for investment. Whether you envision updating interiors or potentially extending (subject to planning permission), this home allows for personal touches that could significantly enhance its value over time.
