Ware House occupies a semi-rural setting in the valley of the River Dart between Buckfastleigh and Dartington. Communications are excellent with the nearby A38 Expressway at Dartbridge linking the two equidistant Devon cities of Plymouth and Exeter and the M5 beyond. The small town of Buckfastleigh lies on the edge of Dartmoor National Park and the historic town of Totnes with its bustling shopping centre and mainline railway station to London Paddington, is a fifteen minute drive. Ware House is a great spot from which to access Dartmoor and the lovely South Hams coastline.
Ware House is an elegant Victorian building which in recent years has been stripped back and renovated, retaining as many original features as possible whilst making it a warm and comfortable home for twenty first century living.
It has an impressive newly installed kitchen-day room, well proportioned living room and five double bedrooms, four of which are en-suite.
There is a basement area with cinema room, utility room and shower room/WC. This space has potential for an annexe.
Outside, there is a good sized lawned and lightly tree'd garden at the front of the house and a generous sized walled garden to the rear.
