SITUATION
The property is well positioned on the outskirts of Launceston set amongst a generous plot and enjoying rural outlooks over the neighbouring farmland and beyond. Conveniently located on the fringes of Launceston, the town centre is approximately half a mile distant whilst Launceston itself offers numerous shops, sporting and social clubs, a fully equipped leisure centre and two 18-hole golf courses.

There is access to the A30 trunk road, which links the Cathedral cities of Truro and Exeter. The bus stops just outside the entrance to the property and provides access either way to the town of Launceston or Okehampton, which is roughly 18 miles away with access then to Exeter via train. At Exeter there is access to the M5 network, main line railway station serving London Paddington and an international airport.
DESCRIPTION
A well cherished detached home constructed traditionally of stone and brick under a slate roof set amongst a generous plot with gardens, ample off road parking and a variety of useful outbuildings. The property and buildings offer a number of opportunities subject to gaining any necessary permissions, whilst the outbuildings offer a fantastic space for those looking for workshops and storage for campervans, classic cars and such like.
ACCOMMODATION
The accommodation throughout is presented in fantastic order with a versatile layout and 2 staircases offer privacy in the principle bedroom away from the other accommodation. The side entrance from the parking area leads into the kitchen, fitted with a range of base and wall mounted units and space for freestanding appliances (the freestanding cooker, fridge/freezer and dishwasher can be included in the sale if required). Wooden interior doors lead on to the rest of the ground floor which presents a breakfast room, separate dining room and large sitting room with windows overlooking the front lawns. The sitting room has a prominent fireplace to one end with a multifuel burner and a store cupboard. The property is not short of storage with an understairs store cupboard, ground floor hanging space and separate cloakroom with WC and plumbing for a washing machine.
The first floor is separated by 2 staircases, with the principle bedroom having beautiful exposed wooden floors, windows with rural views and a separate shower room servicing this bedroom. The other side of the accommodation presents 2 further bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate WC.
OUTSIDE
The generous plot that the property sits within, offers a huge amount of space for parking, storage and gardens. Currently, the formal lawn to the front of the property is bounded by a feature stone wall and gated with a pathway to and flower beds around. The vibrant colours of various shrubs and flower beds continue around the parking area, laid to hardstanding with ample parking and turning space. A paved patio alongside the kitchen provides the perfect area to enjoy the afternoon sun whilst overlooking the gardens and neighbouring fields. The lower garden allows for a separate space currently used as a vegetable plot, with various outside taps and electric points around the premises.
The outbuildings are a huge bonus for those looking for workshop space, a gym, or for storing a range of vehicles with wide openings and high clearance for small tractors or campervans. Upon entering the property, the first set of outbuildings on the left hand side are the largest, divided into various rooms for parking, workshop space and storage. Power and light is connected with either large sliding doors or dual wooden doors. The car port in the top corner of the plot is currently used as a log store with stone and block walls whilst adjoining that is the remains of a redundant stone barn. Adjoining the property is an additional garage space, with power, light and water connected including drainage, offering the potential to be incorporated within the property (subject to gaining the necessary permissions).
