Semi-detached house for sale in Palm Cross Green, Church Street, Modbury PL21

Christopher’s South Hams are delighted to market this truly special Georgian townhouse commanding views across Modbury and surrounding countryside.

Description

Coming to the market for the first time in 25 years, this period home delivers all the features expected of its era including high ceilings, sash windows and ornamental fireplaces.
An original front door with antique knell welcomes you directly into the sitting room with log burner taking centre stage. Downstairs also offers a double aspect dining room and a third reception room which lends itself to a variety of uses including home office or bedroom for a dependent relative given the access to the luxurious downstairs shower room. The kitchen/breakfast room flows through to a recently added garden room, flooded with natural light from the roof lantern and bi-folding doors to the terrace.
Upstairs there are three charming double bedrooms, two of which feature ornate fireplaces. An incredibly spacious family bathroom, again with feature fireplace, completes the upstairs accommodation.
Framed by pretty wrought iron railings, a low maintenance front courtyard invites you to the front door. To the rear, and accessed from the garden room is a pretty wall gardened currently laid to paving offering a perfect private entertaining space, soaking in its south-facing aspect. A pedestrian gate in the rear wall gives access to the rear driveway and garage that has light and power connected.
This home is a superb illustration of its period and has two fantastic advantages; a garden and garage as well as not being listed.

Situation & Amenities

There’s a pretty spot as you enter the picture-postcard town of Modbury from the Plymouth direction, which has been in the care of Devon Wildlife Trust since 1986. Follow the footpath through woodland and discover ancient hedge banks and small streams. This area is known for rare species of flower and is home to brown bats, dormice, blue tits and nuthatches.
Modbury is an architectural delight with dignified Georgian terraced townhouses, slate-hung walls, quaint shop windows, and classical doorways; an historical urban landscape within a charming rural setting. It is the rich history and traditional charm that draws many people to visit and want to live here, along with a wealth of boutique shops, cafes, supermarket, fishmongers, primary school, churches, post office and health centre which all add to the community’s attraction. For the foodies, there’s a butcher and deli, not to mention two local pubs, one of which was a 14th century coaching inn. Modbury Primary School with its Forest School is currently rated as Good by Ofsted and has close links with the pre-school on the same site. Nestled between moors and coast, Modbury boasts excellent transport links situated on the A379 putting Plymouth and Kingsbridge within easy reach as well.
