Situation
Shaugh Prior is a small South Hams village set on the south-west edge of Dartmoor just inside the National Park. It has a village pub, a primary school and historic Parish Church. Secondary schooling is at the Ivybridge Community College for which free transport is provided. There is a strong sense of community and the village is less than five miles from Plympton which has a good range of shops, schools and services, less than five miles from Yelverton which has a range of local shops and only ten miles (or less than half an hour) to Plymouth city centre. For lovers of the countryside, the wonderful open spaces of Dartmoor are right on the doorstep and the picturesque Shaugh Bridge crosses the rivers Plym and Meavy at the foot of the hill. From here are beautiful walks and along the riverbank through National Trust woodland to Cadover Bridge and past the Dewer Stone, a mecca for local rock climbers. The Plym cycle trail is also nearby. Plymouth itself is an historic and vibrant waterside city, well provided with colleges, grammar and public schools, modern university, the Peninsula Medical School, Theatre Royal and cinemas, a wide variety of shops, cafés, bistros and restaurants. The leisure facilities are outstanding with superb water-sports in and around Plymouth Sound.

†Traditional auction
Exchange occurs at the end of the auction. This means that if the reserve is met or exceeded and the auction timer reaches zero, the successful bidder is legally obliged to pay the purchase price and the seller will be legally obliged to sell the property. To ensure that the successful bidder proceeds, the buyer is automatically charged a holding deposit, which is held in a secure client account, pursuant to the terms of a holding deposit agreement.
* Pricing Information
The Guide Price amount specified is an indication of each seller's minimum expectation. It is not necessarily the amount at which the property will sell. Each property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the property will not be sold) which we expect will be set no more than 10% above the Guide Price amount.
