Property description
A characterful country cottage, sympathetically restored and beautifully presented, in a quiet rural hamlet just four miles from Tavistock. Entrance Porch; Kitchen; Sitting/Dining Room; Two Bedrooms; Bathroom; Sealed Unit Double Glazing; Oil Fired Central Heating; Detached Piggery/Store; Ample Parking; Decked Seating Area; Gardens.
The cottage is situated in a quiet rural hamlet, surrouned by open countryside and farmland, approximately one mile from the popular village of Lamerton and four miles from Tavistock.
Lamerton is an attractive village situated some 3 miles from Tavistock and provides a range of usual village facilities, a well known inn and a local primary school.
Tavistock is a thriving market town adjoining the western edge of the Dartmoor National Park and was in 2004 voted the winner of a nationwide survey undertaken by the Council for the Protection of rural England involving 120 other market towns. Among the assets taken into consideration were history, architecture, community spirit, planning sensitivity, recreational facilities and individuality of shops and businesses. Additional attractions include a hospital, a bustling Pannier Market and a full range of schools both State and Private. Indeed Tavistock can claim to have everything adding up to a quality of life which would be hard to rival.
Plymouth is only 15 miles away with fast Inter City rail links to London, Bristol and the North. Also there is a Civil airport offering regular internal and continental flights plus ferry services to Roscoff, Brittany and Santander, Northern Spain.

There is a detached piggery/store providing a useful range of outbuildings, ample off street parking, a decked seating area to the rear of the cottage and an area of lawned garden across the lane.
