Property description & features

  • Detached freehold two bedroom bungalow
  • Built circa 1905
  • Potential rebuild and develop (stp)
  • Good sized garden
  • Carport and parking
  • Central dartmoor location
  • No upward chain
A rare opportunity to acquire a freehold two bedroom bungalow in this Dartmoor location with opportunities to develop (subject to planning). Believed to have been built circa 1905 it has been in the same family's ownership ever since and comes to the market for the first time in its history. Offered with no upward chain.

Situation
The property is located towards the eastern approach to Postbridge, a charming hamlet nestled within the sprawling landscapes of Dartmoor National Park between Princetown (5.6 miles away approx) and Moretonhampstead (8.7 miles approx). Renowned for its historic 13th century clapper bridge. Postbridge is a picturesque destination providing easy access to the surrounding moorland. Nearby attractions include Bellever Forest with its walking and cycling routes, the East Dart River. and the Bronze Age settlement at Grimspound. A shop can be found in the centre of the village and there is also a hotel and the famous Warren House Inn nearby, the highest pub in southern England.

Description
Sunnymead is an unlisted timber framed single storey structure believed to date back to circa 1905. Coming to the market for the first time it is located down a dead-end lane in a rural location on the edge of Postbridge with only a few neighbours. It's structure is in poor condition and in our opinion would benefit from being knocked down and rebuilt, subject to any necessary permissions.

Accommodation
To the front is a dilapidated porch providing access into the Living Room with a fireplace with door through into the main double bedroom (also with a fireplace) and hallway leading to the single bedroom and shower room. To the rear is a Kitchen overlooking the rear garden.To the side is a useful Lean-to Store which provides access through to the rear garden. There is a mixture of single and double glazed windows.

Outside
To the front and side is an area of overgrown parking adjacent to a corrugated metal Car port.The garden lies to the rear and offers a good sized level area which is lawned with some mature trees and shrubs and borders neighbouring farmland. The garden offers some far reaching views up onto the wild moorland in the distance.

Services
Mains electricity. Private water and drainage.Heating was via Radiators from the solid fuel Rayburn but it is presumed this is no longer working.
