Introduction
Laira is a detached bungalow which has been in the same ownership for around 40 years. The property is sat towards the top of the plot with a gently sloping garden, which provides wonderful garden views with open moorland as a backdrop. It is in a superb edge-of-village location that is both private and tranquil. The garden is 0.60 acres, and adjoining it is a grass field of 2.23 acres. The field has its own gated access onto the lane, as well as a pedestrian gate from the garden.

This is a very rare opportunity to acquire a property that is ready for upgrading, along with land within Dartmoor National Park.

Location
Ilsington is a charming village nestled in the heart of Dartmoor National Park, renowned for its stunning natural beauty and rich history. Surrounded by rolling hills and dramatic moorland, this idyllic location offers a peaceful retreat for nature lovers and those seeking a slower pace of life. The village features traditional stone cottages, a welcoming community, and convenient local amenities, including a village shop and pub. Its proximity to the vast expanse of Dartmoor allows for endless outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, and exploring the unique landscapes. Ilsington is a perfect blend of rural charm and accessibility, making it an ideal destination for families and individuals alike looking for a slice of Dartmoor life.

The Inside
As you enter the property, you step into the porch, which has the main door into the entrance hallway. From here, there is a WC/shower room on the right. A door on the left of the hall opens into the dining room, which has lots of built-in storage. The room leads into the kitchen, which in turn leads to the utility room. The utility room has a door to the outside.
Back in the entrance hall, there is a door to the spacious living room. This is an ‘L’-shaped room that takes full advantage of the garden and moorland views. It also has a fitted wood burner, and patio doors lead out onto the patio.
To the right of the entrance hall are the bedrooms; there are three bedrooms in total and a bathroom.

The Outside
To the front of the property, there is a gated driveway with a good amount of parking. The driveway stretches the width of the property and rounds to the garages. There are three garages in total, each with an up-and-over door. To the side of the garages, there is a ‘lean-to’ greenhouse, as well as access to the utility room and garden.
The garden is a lovely size and is predominantly laid to lawn. It has established hedges on both sides and a small copse at the bottom. To the far side of the property there is a detached block built detached garden room with double doors. Towards the bottom of the left-hand side, there is a pedestrian gate that takes you into the field.

The field is 2.23 acres and is gently sloping. It has established hedges along its top border to the lane and a separate five-bar gate access on the far side.
