A delightful 3/4-bedroom period property situated in the heart of Modbury, thoughtfully extended and with an abundance of character.

This home, located at the top of Modbury, offers the best of both worlds, being conveniently situated just a few steps from the high street and benefiting from a walled south-facing garden. It is now being offered on the market for the first time in 25 years. The property has been thoughtfully extended during our client’s ownership and provides light and airy accommodation with a free-flowing layout.

The front door opens into a cosy sitting room with a log burner, with doors leading into a wonderfully spacious second reception room and the kitchen. The kitchen area continues into a sunroom, providing plenty of space for family dining. It has been fitted with a range of units and includes space for a breakfast table and chairs. Also downstairs is a lovely shower room as part of the new extension. The bedroom accommodation is generous in proportion, with three double bedrooms plus a spacious family bathroom. The master bedroom enjoys a superb aspect with far-reaching views over Modbury. The property further benefits from a useful utility area and a spacious home office/fourth bedroom.

Outside, the south-facing garden is a particular feature of the home and provides a perfect space for entertaining family and friends. From the rear of the garden, a gate leads to a private parking space and garage.

Modbury is a picturesque Georgian town situated in an 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty', and is only about 4 miles from the nearest beach. Some two hundred years ago, it was extremely prosperous, being the local market town and a centre for the wool trade. Today, there is a good range of local shops, including a butcher, baker, grocer, hardware store, chemist, delicatessen, and a number of cafes, gift shops, and art galleries. Modbury received worldwide media coverage when it became the first town in Europe to become plastic bag-free. Other amenities include a primary school, health centre, dentist, veterinary surgery and mobile library, and Lloyds bank. For more comprehensive shopping, Kingsbridge is to the South, and Plymouth is about 12 miles to the West. Modbury is on the main bus route and is also only about 5.5 miles from the A38. Nearby, there are fine cliff top and coastal walks, other beaches and coves, with sailing at Salcombe and Newton Ferrers, 18-hole golf courses at Thurlestone and Bigbury, and Dartmoor National Park is several miles to the North.
