Te-Whare is a wonderful home set within 1.8 acres of beautiful grounds and mature woodlands. The attractive gated entrance leads to an extensive gravel parking area and garaging for three vehicles. Grand granite steps and double doors lead to the imaginatively designed interior which includes a large open plan split level principal living area with imposing granite fireplace. The high ceiling is enhanced by the exposed timbers dominated by the reclaimed ship's keelson. Steps lead down to the sun room with access to the garden.

The dining room, which could be described as baronial, has exposed granite, timbered apex roof and imposing fireplace with wood burning stove.

The study, with its harlequin tiled floor, mullion windows and soothing views over the grounds, provides an ideal home-working environment aided by good wi-fi.

For catering, the kitchen/breakfast room, again with mullion windows and stunning views, is fully fitted with freezer, dishwasher and Range cooker.

The utility room has ample storage and laundry facilities as well as the newly installed zoned gas boiler and heat store water system.

Both the principal suite and second bedroom are impressive with their double doors opening onto the balcony with far-reaching views over the
moors. This, with the two further bedrooms and family bathroom offer flexible accommodation on the first floor.

Outside, the maintained grounds with mature trees and shrubs are designed for easy maintenance. As well as the fully powered and insulated workshop there are further sheds for implements and log storage.


Stepping out of the gates onto the open moor, within easy walking distance is the iconic view of Burrator reservoir encircled by the impressive Sheep's Tor, Down Tor and Leather Tor. Also within walking distance are traditional moorland hostelries: The Royal Oak at Meavy, The Burrator Inn at Dousland and the Walkhampton Inn. Yelverton is one and a half miles away providing a host of facilities including GP surgery, pharmacy, post office and shops together with tennis, bowling and golf clubs.

There are four primary junior schools within the local area and the highly rated independent day/boarding school, Mount Kelly at Tavistock.

The historic stannary town of Tavistock, 7 miles away, is a thriving market town with a weekly cattle market and a daily pannier market as well as a host of family owned shops. The historic naval port of Plymouth is 11 miles away and offers extensive cultural, recreational and educational facilities. The port has regular cross channel ferry services to Brittany and Northern Spain. There is also a main line train service from Plymouth to London Paddington.
