Description
Situation - The property enjoys a most enviable rural location on the outskirts of the parish of Altarnun. The village has an impressive church, commonly known as the Cathedral of the Moor, village shop and post office catering for day-to-day needs and public house The Kings Head at Five Lanes. The former market town of Launceston is approximately 9 miles to the east with shopping facilities including 24-hour supermarket, fully equipped leisure centre, two testing 18-hole golf courses and numerous sporting and social clubs.
The A30 trunk road can be accessed at Altarnun which links the Cathedral Cities of Truro and Exeter. At Exeter there is access to the M5 motorway network, mainline railway station serving London Paddington and international airport. The property lies on the fringes of the majestic Bodmin Moor which possesses some of the finest riding out in the South West and accredited competition venues can be found at Tall Trees Equestrian Centre at Davidstow, the Duchy College at Stoke Climsland and further riding out on Dartmoor National Park.
Description - This charming, detached, stone cottage boasts an abundance of character nestled in a tranquil location on the fringes of Bodmin Moor. The accommodation is clearly illustrated on the floorplan overleaf and briefly comprises the dual aspect sitting/dining room with down lighting and multi-fuel stove, a part glazed door leading to the wooden lean to, which offers access outside to an additional seating area and the beautiful rear garden. From the sitting room, a second door leads to the hallway with doors to the kitchen, bathroom and stairs rising to the first floor.
The kitchen comprises a range of cream base units with rolled edge work surfaces over and tiled splashbacks, 1 1/2 bowl stainless steel sink unit, space and plumbing for a fridge and washing machine along with an integrated electric oven with hob and extractor over, beamed ceiling and slate floor. The bathroom comprises a pedestal wash hand basin, low level WC, electric radiator, panel enclosed bath accompanied with an overhead electric shower, beamed ceiling and slate tiled flooring. The bright and airy dual aspect master bedroom offers impressive rural views to the surrounding countryside and moorland beyond, exposed beams and a built in wardrobe over stairs.
Outside - From the country lane, a wooden pedestrian gate provides access to the side of the property where there is a gravel and paved patio area ideal for al fresco dining. There are also two useful wooden garden sheds to the side of the patio suitable for storage. From the patio a further wooden gate leads to the private, tranquil garden mainly laid to lawn, bordered by a variety of herbaceous shrubs, plants and mature trees all surrounded by Cornish bank and hedging.
