3 bed detached house for sale

Church Park Road, Newton Ferrers, South Devon PL8

Description

Luscombe Maye is delighted to bring to the market a rare opportunity to acquire this three bedroom detached home located in the heart of the popular coastal village of Newton Ferrers.

The property has enormous potential for re-configuration, extension and modernisation to create a beautiful home, set within generous, south facing, terraced gardens and enjoying glorious 180° Yealm estuary views.

The property is currently accessed down a flight of steps from road level, the main living room, with open fireplace, optimises it's elevated position above the gardens, to enjoy the panoramic views from a corner window and patio doors opening onto a small balcony with steps leading down to the full width sun terrace. The primary bedroom sits on the same elevation with a south-facing window overlooking the river with Noss Mayo beyond.

To the rear of the ground floor is a 2nd double bedroom, shower room, separate WC and kitchen with door leading into a potential utility and pantry located beneath the garage.

The lower ground floor is accessed from the path leading to the garden and is currently arranged into two main rooms with a simple shower room and large storage areas built into the bank.

Outside, there is a single garage with off-road parking in front and a large garden, landscaped with terraces to optimise the outlook.

No EPC available due to the extensive modernisation required.

Situation

The twin villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo enjoy a delightful riverside setting on the wooded slopes of the estuary of the River Yealm.

This sheltered, deep water harbour is much favoured by yachtsmen and lies within a truly beautiful valley in the unspoilt South Hams countryside, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Special Area of Conservation.

The villages share a number of facilities including a post office, pharmacy, Co-operative store, three public houses, two churches, yacht club with bistro, tea-rooms and good Primary School.

The holiday retreats and full-time residences have found a comfortable balance that propel this thriving community with countless clubs and activities available for the more sociable and active, or long picturesque walks for those that simply want to enjoy the peace and tranquillity.

Bus services run to Plymouth city centre which is within easy commuting distance. The main route from Plymouth to Exeter (A38/M5 Devon Expressway) is only a few miles away. Intercity trains run regularly from Plymouth to Paddington. The Continental Ferry port in Plymouth is also easily accessible. Plymouth itself is an historic and vibrant waterside City, well provided with colleges, grammar & public schools, modern university, the Peninsula Medical School, Theatre Royal & cinemas, a large department store and shopping mall, cafes, bistros & restaurants. The leisure facilities are outstanding with superb water sports in and around Plymouth Sound and numerous marinas.
