4 bed detached house for sale

North Petherwin, Launceston, Cornwall PL15

Enjoying a south facing position and commanding far reaching views over its own land amounting to 1.88 acres, this attractive farmhouse is set right at the end of a 1/3 of a mile wel maintained track, with just two other neighbouring barns.

Beamed ceilings, window seats and an impressive log burner are just some of the character features making this farmhouse so attractive.

The accommodation includes a lounge and a dining room with the lounge featuring a striking stone fireplace with a wood burning stove and a feature clome oven.

Moving through, the kitchen is well equipped with a range of matching units and included in the sale is the electric Range, located within an original chimmney recess. There is also a generous utility room, a useful utility cupboard with plumbing for relevant appliances and a downstairs WC. Concluding the ground floor is the guest bedroom with an en-suite WC. This room could be used as a further reception room or study if so required.

On the first floor, there are four bedrooms, three of which are double in size. The master bedroom has an en-suite shower room/WC with a large shower tray and electric shower. Bedroom five has an extensive range of wardrobes and units and is currently used as a dressing room.

One of the significant advantages of the farmhouse is that planning permission has been granted to extend the accommodation at the side. The decision was made by Cornwall Council in 2012 under application number PA12/09108.

The farmhouse has many modern comforts such as oil fired central heating and Upvc double glazed windows, and our client has overseen works including new tiles on the roof, the renewal of the slate hung west elevation and replaced the private drainage system. They have also added the one bedroom timber cabin, under permitted development. This adds to the flexibility when friends or family stay, and features an open plan kitchen/dining/living room, double bedroom and shower room/WC with electric heating. Easily used as an Air Bnb, it will be included in the sale fully furnished and sold as seen with all fixtures and fittings

Externally, the property is approached via a roughly 1/3 of a mile long track and meanders its way to the well enclosed parking area. The track and the gardens have the most wonderful views across miles of rolling countryside. There is a hardstanding driveway providing parking for many vehicles.

Closer to the house there are more formal gardens including a raised gravelled patio area ideal for Al-freso dining, a deck area to sit and enjoy the wonderful views and colourful flowerbeds. There would be scope to extend to the side, if required, with planning granted in the past for a two storey extension (now lapsed).

The plot measures 1.88 acres and could be easily divided into garden and paddock, if a buyer wanted to keep livestock, make a kitchen garden and add polytunnels/outbuildings for horticultural use.

Lower Troswell Farmhouse is located a short distance from the tiny hamlet of Troswell and within a few miles of North Petherwin village and Brazacott where there is a county primary school.

This peaceful location is also within the popular Holsworthy, Bude and Launceston triangle with all three towns offering an excellent range of shopping, commercial, educational and recreational facilities.

The A30 dual carriageway can be accessed at Launceston providing access to Truro and West Cornwall in one direction and Exeter and beyond in the opposite direction. Exeter offers extensive transport links including the M5 motorway, mainline rail network and a fast growing regional airport. The coastal resort of Bude is renowned for its sandy beaches, rugged coast line and miles and miles of cliff top walks.<br/>From Launceston head north along the B3254 road to Bude. Proceed along the road and at Langdon Cross, turn left signposted North Petherwin. Continue on this road and upon reaching the centre of North Petherwin turn right at the crossroads. Continue on this road without turning off until you reach Brazacott where you will pass the North Petherwin Primary School. Follow this road for exactly one mile and look out for a left hand lane where one of our team will meet you, so you can follow them to the property.
