Location
Buckfastleigh is a small market town situated beside the A38 Devon Expressway, providing a direct link to the cites of Plymouth and Exeter as well as the M5, which makes it a great location for commuters. The town itself has a Primary school, Health centre, Post office, Newsagent and Co-Operative store, along with a variety of cafes, shops and pubs.

The town offers a wide range of tourist attractions, such as an open-air swimming pool, the historic Buckfast Abbey and grounds, Dart Rock climbing centre, Pennywell Farm, the Butterfly and Otter sanctuary and the South Devon Railway.

The Norman town of Totnes is approximately 7 miles away providing a wide range of amenities and shops, including a mainline railway station getting to London Paddington in approximately 3 hours.

Description
This Grade II listed cottage has wealth of character features, it is deceptively spacious, and comes with two good sized double bedrooms, an attic room, two reception rooms and a detached garden. Located on Fore Street, it is a short level walk to all the local amenities, including the primary school and medical centre.

On entering the property, you are greeted by the first reception room, this room is a good size and has some beautiful original features including exposed stone and woodwork. There is space for freestanding furniture and has the added benefit of a wood burner. This room leads through to the second reception room on the right-hand side. The second reception room is currently being used as a living room/cosy snug area.

The kitchen is a generous size and sits at the rear of the property, it has a range of low-level cupboards with space for a range cooker, dishwasher, and fridge-freezer. There is also space for a 4-seater dining table if required. There is a back door from the kitchen that leads out to an undercover porch area, this is a great space for muddy shoes and coats. You can also access the detached garden via the back door.

Leading off from the kitchen is the utility space, this houses the gas combination boiler and has plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer. From the utility you go through to the family bathroom. The bathroom has a white suite with shower over the bath.

On the first floor there are the two good sized double bedrooms. The master bedroom is a generous sized room, with plenty of space for a king size bed and offers a built-in walk-in wardrobe space. The second bedroom is also a good-sized double with built in storage.
From the second bedroom there is a door leading up to the attic room. This room has been partially converted and could be used as a home office/studio space; the current owners are using it as accessible storage.

The detached garden sits just stone's throw from the property, this is a sunny space with plenty of room for a table and chairs and is a blank canvass for a keen gardener to make it their own. This property has a lot of character and charm, a viewing is highly recommended.

Places of interest

    Modern Move is based in the beautiful market town of Buckfastleigh which sits on the edge of the stunning Dartmoor National Park and a short distance from the River Dart, making it a hotspot for outdoor activities including hiking, kayaking, climbing and riding. It is also located conveniently just off the A38 Devon Expressway, providing a direct link to the cities of Plymouth and Exeter as well as the M5, so is a perfect location for commuters. Buckfastleigh not only lies at the foot of Dartmoor but also at the gateway to The South Hams, with beautiful rolling countryside and picturesque beaches and coastline this is a very desirable area, and a popular holiday destination. The reason we decided on Buckfastleigh as our location is not only due to living locally, but it gives us the perfect position to cover the whole of the South Hams and South Dartmoor, two areas that we love.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
