SUMMARY Set just moments from the centre of Moretonhampstead, Candles is a surprisingly generous two-bedroom ground-floor home offering more than 900 sq ft of accommodation arranged entirely on one level.
Behind its town-centre frontage is a well-proportioned interior with a large sitting room, separate kitchen and dining room, two bedrooms and a particularly spacious bathroom with both a bath and walk-in shower. A separate utility and laundry room adds valuable practicality, while the second bedroom benefits from its own WC and wash basin.
With shops, cafés and everyday amenities only a short, level walk away, Candles will appeal to buyers looking for convenient single-storey living, a lock-up-and-leave Dartmoor base or a well-positioned investment in the centre of this popular moorland town.
A new 999-year lease will be granted on completion of the sale. A shared side access through and across the courtyard will be granted. There is no allocated parking and no private outside space.
THE PROPERTY The front door opens into an entrance lobby before leading into the kitchen and dining room. Brightened by a large front-facing window, the kitchen and dining room is a generous and practical space with room to cook, eat and gather in one place. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, extensive work surfaces and a peninsula arrangement that helps define the cooking area without closing it off from the rest of the room. Integrated appliances include a fridge freezer, microwave, gas hob and eye-level oven, while built-in cupboards and shelving provide useful additional storage. The dining area gives the room a more sociable feel and has space for a full-size table, making it equally suited to everyday meals and entertaining.
A bright and generous sitting room forms a comfortable centrepiece to the home, with a fireplace providing a natural focal point
An inner hallway leads away from the main living areas to the bedrooms and bathroom. The principal bedroom includes fitted wardrobes with mirrored sliding doors, together with additional built-in storage.
The second bedroom offers flexibility for guests, occasional use or home working and benefits from its own WC and wash basin.
The main bathroom is fitted with both a bath and a separate walk-in shower, alongside a wash basin, WC and heated towel rail.
Beyond the second bedroom is a separate utility and laundry room with a sink, work surface, shelving and plumbing for a washing machine. Steps rise from here to a rear entrance door, providing an additional point of access to the property.
