The Plains, Totnes

Flat 2 is a large apartment in the centre of Totnes — a first-floor home with the proportions of a house, a private parking space and lift access.
The apartment is arranged over a single level and falls naturally into two halves. At the front, a bay-fronted open-plan living, dining and kitchen space runs the width of the building, with the bay windows drawing light in across the day. It is a room built for company: somewhere to cook while people sit, and to seat a proper table without moving the furniture.
At the far end, and quite separate from the main living space, is a second double bedroom with its own sitting area and en-suite bathroom. It is the kind of separation usually found only in a house — a genuinely private room for guests who stay, an adult child at home, a live-in parent, or a study with a door you can close. The principal bedroom and the second bathroom complete the accommodation.
The apartment is all-electric on the local Totnes Renewable Energy Club tariff. The EPC rating is currently D with a potential rating of C. Council Tax is Band C.
The service charge is £4,800 a year, with a ground rent of £80. It covers all external maintenance and roof repairs, external redecoration, buildings insurance, cleaning and lighting of the shared internal hallways and any repairs to them, fire system checks and maintenance, lift servicing and repair, and management and professional fees.
The Plains sits at the foot of the town beside Totnes Bridge, with Vire Island a minute's walk away in the middle of the Dart. The riverside path leads out along the Dart Valley Trail towards Dartington and the Dartington Hall estate; across the bridge, Steamer Quay opens onto the walks towards Sharpham and Ashprington. Bourton Woods, Totnes Castle and the open country above the town are all reachable on foot within ten to fifteen minutes. Dartmoor is a short drive north, and the South Hams beaches a short drive south.
The High Street, with its independent shops, market, cafés, pubs and arts venues, is a few minutes' walk uphill. Totnes railway station is about ten minutes on foot, with direct services to London Paddington from 2 hours 34 minutes, and Exeter and Plymouth both around half an hour away. The South Devon Railway steam line runs from Littlehempston, just across the river.
