For sale by Informal Tender, a 4-bedroom cul-de-sac bungalow, close to open moorland and needing total renovation, complete with a driveway and overgrown gardens. For Sale by Informal Tender; Closing - Thurs 28/11/24 at 12:00pm; Detached 4-bedroom Bungalow; Complete Renovation Required; Opportunity to Remodel/Extend (STP); Driveway and Good Size Rear Plot; Quiet, Private Cul-de-sac; Popular Village Close to Open Moors; Freehold; Council Tax Band: D; EPC Band: E.

Situation - This detached bungalow sits within a quiet, private cul-de-sac on the edge of the Dartmoor village of Dousland. Open moorland is available within half a mile, at Yennadon Down, leading on to the full expanse of Dartmoor, and the property is also in close proximity to Burrator Reservoir, a well-known local beauty spot and nature reserve. The property is within extremely easy reach of Plymouth city and commutable distance of both Derriford Hospital and the city's schooling options, whilst also being within proximity of Yelverton and the popular market town of Tavistock.

The village of Dousland has a popular public house and benefits from a central bus connection, whilst the smaller village of Meavy lies around a mile away and features a primary school, quintessential country pub, and an active village hall, and holds an annual summer fair. The desirable village of Yelverton is less than 2 miles away, providing an excellent range of day-to-day amenities with its parade of shops featuring a mini-supermarket, local butchers, delicatessen, cafe and pharmacy, whilst the village also has a GP Surgery, Texaco fuel station, Post Office and Veterinary Surgery, as well as a selection of eateries and a popular Free House, The Rock Inn. For sports enthusiasts, there are golf, cricket, tennis and bowling clubs. In all, Yelverton and Dousland offer a very high standard of living with a wonderful sense of community.

Description - This is a rare opportunity to acquire an adaptable, detached bungalow in a sought-after location, needing complete renovation but offering an incoming owner the chance to mould the property to their tastes and requirements. In our client's family for 30 years, the bungalow offers well-proportioned living accommodation with up to four bedrooms, which could be reconfigured to suit different requirements and lifestyles. In brief, internally it is comprised of a porch, hallway, sitting room, kitchen, shower room and separate WC, plus the four bedrooms, of which we understand one to have been converted from the property's integral garage. In total, the property amounts to almost 1,200sq.ft and opportunities to extend the accommodation further may exist, subject to any necessary consents or approvals.

Externally, the house is set back from the road by a front garden area, whilst the principal garden can be found at the rear. Whilst of a good size, the rear garden is extremely overgrown at present and, as a consequence, it is inaccessible. To the side of the bungalow is a driveway and a general-purpose timber shed.

Services - Mains water, electricity, and drainage are connected to the property. Oil-fired central heating. Superfast broadband is available. Limited mobile voice/data services are available through Vodafone (Source: Ofcom's online service checker.) Please note that the agents have neither inspected nor tested these services.

Method Of Sale - Informal Tender - The Property is offered for sale as a whole by Informal Tender. The closing date for tenders to be submitted is Thursday 28th November 2024 at 12:00pm midday. An informal tender form is available from Stags; tenders are to be submitted in writing to Stags, Tavistock. Should an offer be accepted we will require proof of your funding. In addition, under Money Laundering Regulations 2017 it is a requirement for Estate Agents to perform due diligence checks on purchasers to verify their identity. This will be an online check undertaken by Stags. Please refer to the informal tender form. The vendors do not undertake to accept the highest or any offer received.

Agent's Notes - 1. The kitchen has recently suffered a small fire. No significant structural damage is believed to have been caused to the bungalow although any party must satisfy themselves through inspection and investigation.
2. Viewers are advised to take care when visiting the property as the floors are failing in some areas.
3. Yennadon Down quarry is located within half a mile.
