Situated on the edge of the popular South Hams Village of Brixton this characterful mid-century home, built in the early 1950's is coming to the open market for the first time in over 70 years.

Offering a fantastic renovation opportunity, especially to those excited by mid-century homes, largely untouched the property still enjoys original details including wooden parquet flooring and original tiled fireplaces creating a sense of nostalgia throughout.

Nestled on the edge of the village the driveway provides plenty off-street parking for a car and/or a boat and gives access to the garage and adjoining workshop. A pathway leads to the back door with a useful entrance porch that opens into the kitchen. As is often typical of homes of this period the property is well-oriented with the principal rooms facing in a southerly direction overlooking surrounding countryside and woodland in the distance. Both the sitting room and dining room enjoy generous bay windows overlooking the garden, parquet flooring and original tiled fireplaces. The primary entrance to the property is situated to the east via an entrance porch, a perfect space for those who love tending indoor plants, opening into the entrance hall with guest cloakroom and stairs ascending to the first floor with mahogany banister.

On the first floor are three bedrooms, the principal and guest bedroom enjoy expansive southerly facing windows with views over the surrounding countryside and original fireplaces. Also on this floor is the family bathroom with separate w.c.

The garden has been lovingly developed over many years and includes mature shrubs and trees for the wildlife and birds to enjoy.

Situated in the beautiful South Hams village of Brixton with its extensive range of beautiful countryside walks located just six miles from the centre of Plymouth with the benefit of a regular bus service. Brixton has a good range of amenities including the CAMRA award-winning Foxhound public house, St Mary's Church, a popular fish and chip shop, Texaco garage and Otter garden centre. OFSTED have rated the C of E primary school as 'Outstanding'. For secondary schooling, the village lies in the catchment area Ivybridge Community College for which free transport is provided (years 7-11), and Plymouth has three Grammar schools (two girls and one boys). The nearby village of Yealmpton offers further facilities, including a health centre with dispensary, and Elburton Village, about 2.5 miles distant also has a range of shops. Many unspoilt South Hams beaches are within easy reach, and the yachtsmen’s haven of Newton Ferrers is 4.5 miles away. The M5 at Exeter is only 40 minutes’ average driving time away.
