Property description
A substantial three bedroom detached house with a one bedroom annexe in a pleasant rural location with far reaching countryside views. The property sits on a very good sized plot and benefits from a very large garden, off street parking and workshop.
Located in the centre of the village of Lapford, a three bedroom house with adjoining one bedroom annexe, and potential for redevelopment.The house, which is in need of modernisation and cosmetic improvement, provides an ideal opportunity for those looking for dual family occupation, and houses with potential like this, and in this budget are very rare to the market. The house has a modern kitchen, with oil fire Aga, and retains many period features, including exposed ceiling beams, and a large inglenook fireplace. Outside the gardens are large, with a useful workshop/store, and a children's play room upstairs that the vendor built for his children. There is also lighting and power, and the power from here has previously been used as a supply for the Lapford Revel held in the neighbouring field.
