Noss Mayo, Plymouth, PL8 1EN

Thoughtfully renovated to an excellent standard, Sunnymead occupies an elevated and enviable position close to the centre of Noss Mayo. Dating from the 1930s, the sun streams into this delightful property, which has undergone a programme of modernisation in recent years. Whilst retaining many of its charming period features, Sunnymead has been remodelled and beautifully appointed to suit modern living requirements. From the moment you arrive at its charming red front door, a feeling of cheerfulness flows throughout this home, which is positioned perfectly to make the most of the natural light through its large bay windows, typical of a 1930s property. The newly fitted kitchen, utility and bathroom create a fresh, contemporary feel, and the exceptionally spacious sitting/dining room, with large bay windows, overlooks the surrounding countryside and the beautiful coastal village of Noss Mayo. The property also enjoys two generous bedrooms. Outside, the front terrace is perfectly positioned to enjoy the surrounding views. The drive is owned by the property and widens towards the top to provide parking. The neighbouring property has a right of way over the drive for access. Agents' note: The property previously had the benefit of planning permission (now lapsed) to create a substantial, light-filled dormer bungalow in this much sought-after location. The design encompassed a series of extensions, creating two full-size double bedrooms, plus an extra-large principal bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and dressing room. In addition, it would have provided an extensive kitchen with a spacious adjoining dining area. A proposed first-floor living room, with the addition of two dormers and the change from hip to gable ends, would have created a bright, spacious room with high ceilings and picture windows to the front and rear, taking in the surrounding views. This might be something a future owner might wish to explore again. The twin villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo straddle the Yealm Estuary. The property is in a secluded position within yards of Noss Hard. Long walks are available from the doorstep, along the estuary and around the National Trust headland of The Warren. Both The Ship and The Swan inns are a short walk away, and there are well cared-for tennis courts around 50 metres from the property. Newton Ferrers has a range of facilities including a shop, post office and primary school, while more comprehensive amenities can be found in nearby Yealmpton (about four miles away), Modbury, Ivybridge and Plymouth (about 12 miles distant). Deep-water moorings and slipway facilities are located around the Yealm Estuary.
