A spacious and comfortable home set in 5.5 acres occupying a commanding and elevated rural location with no immediate neighbours, but easily accessible, and with far reaching views in every direction over open countryside including Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor.
At first glance the home appears to be a traditional residence, but modern and contemporary features abound within; there is underfloor heating throughout the entire home, a ground source heat pump, and solar thermal panels that fuel the hot water system - all of which contributes to a more energy-efficient living experience.
As soon as you pass through the oak porch and into the bright and airy entrance hall, you will notice an abundance of space and light. There is a triple aspect sitting room with a brick inglenook style fireplace housing a wood burner and French doors that open onto a paved area that is hidden beneath the veranda that wraps around the back of the property. Along the hallway, you will also find storage and a separate office / occasional ground floor bedroom. At the centre of the home lies the 35ft quadruple aspect kitchen / family room laid with slate flooring. There is an abundance of wall and base mounted cupboard units, an integrated dishwasher, slate worktops, a central island, and a sunroom with windows along the back and sides with uninterrupted views of the garden, paddock and surrounding countryside. A feature brick fireplace with oak lintel houses a solid fuel Rayburn. Through French doors, you can step out onto the paved terrace. Conveniently situated off the kitchen is a utility room with the necessary plumbing for appliances and hot water cylinders, as well as a side entrance porch / boot room with its own separate shower room.
Head upstairs and you will find yourself on the bright and airy gallery landing which has doors that open to four double bedrooms, and a family bathroom with both a luxurious roll top bath and separate shower. The master bedroom, in particular, deserves special attention - it is of impressive size with triple aspect views, and there is a large ensuite bathroom with a composite bathtub, shower cubicle, toilet, and wash basin. All bedrooms have built in wardrobes with ample storage space.
Outside, the residence is just as impressive. A private driveway allows for ample parking and turning space, and there is a single garage with additional storage at the rear, along with a pump room that houses the filtration equipment for the private water supply. Furthermore, there is a large block-built barn that is ideal for those looking for equestrian facilities or other livestock, and a large wooden log store.
The formal garden offers an array of plants, shrubs, and borders. There is a large soft fruit area and small orchard. Various enclosures, previously used to house chickens and ducks, are currently used for growing vegetables. The property is spread over an area of 5.5 acres, and the gently sloping paddock extends over 4.5 acres creating a stunning living experience. It must be seen to be fully appreciated - words and pictures alone cannot do justice to this beautiful residence and the awe-inspiring views it offers.The property is located a short distance from the sought after village of Lifton with its various amenities including primary school, church, a public house, two hotels, doctors surgery / dispensary, post office / store, community centre and award winning farm shop. The property is within a few minutes drive onto the A30 dual carriageway and, given Lifton’s location on the Cornwall / Devon border, provides superb communication east and west.
The nearby former market towns of Launceston (4 miles) and Okehampton (17 miles), and the World Heritage town of Tavistock (6 miles), provide a fuller range of social, commercial, and shopping facilities. Additionally, there is a direct train link from Okehampton to Exeter. Beyond, Plymouth (32 miles) provides continental ferry port and intercity rail links. To the east of Lifton via the A30 is the cathedral city of Exeter (39 miles) providing an intercity rail link, international airport and M5 motorway link.
In all directions from Lifton there is scenery of outstanding natural beauty. To the north the rugged coastline of North Cornwall and North Devon features surfing beaches and quaint former fishing villages. To the west, the open spaces of Bodmin Moor provide superb walking and riding, and to the east is Dartmoor National Park. Running south from Lifton the river Tamar valley steeped in 18th Century mining history is famed for salmon fishing and country sport activities.
