The ancient stannary town of Ashburton is little changed in a century and a half. The facades of the properties in West Street date mostly from the Georgian and Victorian period, and often have much earlier origins.
This delightful mix of period properties gives Ashburton its charm and number 42 West Street has the added advantage of a very pleasant south easterly front aspect over towards St Andrews Church.
This is a bright flat with large sash windows, high ceilings and some period features remaining such as decorative coving and dado rails. Flat 2 is particularly well presented with taseful decor and has the comfort of gas central heating via a recently replaced combi-boiler.
Local shops and amenities are a short stroll away including butchers, bakery, delicatessen, greengrocers, fish-deli, award winning post office, public park and a well supported community arts centre. Ashburton is located between the cathedral city of Exeter and naval port of Plymouth, both easily accessible via the A38 expressway at Pear Tree. The town lies within Dartmoor National Park and some of the most beautiful and picturesque parts of the moor are within easy reach.
