Tavistock is a thriving market town (voted best Market town in 2004) situated on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park in West Devon. Within Tavistock there is an excellent variety of educational, recreational, cultural and shopping facilities, including primary and secondary schools (State and Private including Mount House, Kelly College, Tavistock College), a health centre, veterinary practice, banks, churches, hotels, shops and offices. The Historic Naval city of Plymouth, 16 miles to the South, offers extensive further amenities including a regular train service via Exeter to London; an airport with links to London and seasonal ferry services to France and Northern Spain. There are local bus and school services, whilst the A30, just 8 miles to the North, and the A38 at Plymouth, both facilitate rapid access to the South-West, Exeter (38 miles) and the M5 motorway. Sporting facilities in the area are excellent. The Dartmoor National Park extends to over 300 square miles providing ample opportunities for walking and riding. Sailing and other water sports are available from a number of venues along the North and South coasts, whilst golf is available on the courses at Whitchurch, Tavistock, Yelverton, Saltash, Launceston and St. Mellion or at the driving range at Yelverton. There are opportunities to fish (subject to Water Authority and riparian owners licences) on the rivers Tamar (Endsleigh), Tavy and East and West Dart. Lake fishing, coarse and game is also available in the area. Greystoke comprises a delightful, semi-detached late 19th Century family house set well back from the Plymouth Road approximately 250 yards from the centre of Tavistock. This fine house, which is Grade II listed as being of Special Architectural and Historic Interest, was originally a Mine Captains House, constructed circa 1890 and is built in the traditional manner of local stone, rendered and colour washed with predominantly sash windows under a slate roof. Greystoke has been beautifully restored and maintained in recent years in sympathy with the original character associated with a property of this era. On the ground floor an entrance hall opens to a cloakroom and the staircase hall, which boasts a fine, balustraded staircase serving all four floors. There is a drawing room and separate sitting room, both well-proportioned high-ceilinged rooms, on the ground floor, the latter overlooking the lawned rear garden. On the garden floor, there is a beautifully fitted kitchen/breakfast room, a quest room/bedroom 5 and a utility room, the latter retaining a WC. Ascending to the first floor, there are two bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room, whilst on the second floor, there are two further bedrooms and a bathroom. To the front of the house there is a lawned garden and gravelled drive with parking for several cars, whilst to the rear there is a walled, lawned garden with raised deck area, garden stores and pedestrian gate to the canal. An internal viewing is the only way to fully appreciate this fine family home.
