SITUATION The property enjoys a particularly tucked away setting at the end of a no through lane, shared with only a handful of neighbouring properties, whilst still being within walking distance of the popular village of Tregadillett. The village offers an excellent range of day to day amenities including a well regarded primary school, Post Office, community hall and church, together with the popular Eliot Arms public house. The A30 dual carriageway lies within approximately 1 mile, providing excellent access eastwards towards Exeter and westwards towards Truro. The historic market town of Launceston is within easy reach and offers a comprehensive range of shopping, commercial, educational and recreational facilities.
DESCRIPTION This highly individual detached stone barn, converted in 2007, offers well presented and characterful reverse level accommodation, combining modern benefits with a wealth of charm. In brief, the accommodation comprises an entrance hallway, four bedrooms including two en suite facilities, family bathroom, first floor living/dining room and fitted kitchen together with an attic room providing flexible additional space. The property benefits from timber double glazed windows throughout. The lower ground floor has been fully insulated helping the barn to gain an EPC rating of C which is excellent for this style of property.
The barn successfully blends character features including exposed timbers and vaulted ceilings with modern day practicality, creating a highly versatile family home.
ACCOMMODATION A particular feature of the property is the impressive first floor living/dining room, enjoying a vaulted ceiling with exposed A-frames, a wood burning stove and solid oak flooring which continues throughout much of the barn. Doors open directly onto a sunny decked terrace to the rear, and a balcony to the front allowing the reception area to make the very most of the surrounding outlook. The kitchen is fitted with a modern range of units incorporating built in appliances and offers easy access onto the decked seating area, ideal for al fresco dining. From the living/dining room, stairs rise to a highly useful attic space, ideal as a study area, hobbies room or additional storage.
Stairs descend from the living space to the ground floor where a welcoming entrance hallway leads to the bedroom accommodation. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, featuring an exposed A-frame and vaulted ceiling, together with a walk-in wardrobe, en suite shower room and French doors opening onto a sheltered side patio, perfect for a morning coffee. A further double bedroom also benefits from a vaulted ceiling and exposed A-frame and provides an excellent guest suite. There are two additional bedrooms together with a spacious family bathroom.
OUTSIDE Externally, the property is approached via a substantial concrete yard providing ample off road parking and turning space. Access extends around both sides of the barn to the generous gardens which are laid principally to lawn and extend in all to 0.45 of an acre.
At the far end of the garden is a productive orchard planted with a variety of fruit trees including Cox and Bramley apple trees together with plum and cherry trees. Closer to the barn are attractive and well stocked flowerbeds, whilst a decked terrace runs along the rear elevation and enjoys a sunny aspect for much of the day, providing an ideal space for outside dining and entertaining. Located opposite the barn is a useful outbuilding currently utilised as storage, a garden shed and workshop, all benefitting from power and light connected.
