SITUATION The property occupies a convenient and very central position within the popular village of Kilkhampton, a thriving North Cornwall community offering an excellent range of day-to-day amenities including a Co-op, Spar/post office, primary school, two public houses, places of worship and a variety of local businesses. The village is well served by regular bus routes providing access to the surrounding area. The dramatic North Cornish coastline is within easy reach, with the nearby National Trust-owned Sandymouth Beach, Duckpool and Coombe Valley providing spectacular scenery and excellent opportunities for walking, surfing and enjoying the outdoors. Kilkhampton Common, situated on the edge of the village, offers further attractive walking routes and open countryside. The popular coastal town of Bude lies approximately 5 miles to the south and provides a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and educational facilities including secondary schooling, larger supermarkets, independent shops, restaurants, cafés, sporting facilities and two renowned sandy beaches.
DESCRIPTION Offering considerably more accommodation than may first appear, this versatile property combines comfortable family living with the benefit of a substantial games room that forms part of the former shop/post office premises. This area presents an opportunity for those seeking to establish a tea room, café, retail outlet or other commercial venture, whilst equally lending itself to a variety of domestic uses, subject to any necessary consents. The property has genuine possibilities to be used for dual family occupation, having been 2 separate dwellings in the past.
ACCOMMODATION The accommodation is arranged over two floors and briefly comprises an entrance hall leading to a spacious sitting room featuring an exposed stone wall and fireplace with electric fire. Positioned to the rear of the property, this room enjoys a more peaceful setting away from the road. The kitchen is fitted with a stylish range of contemporary wall and base units incorporating a built-in Zanussi oven and AEG ceramic hob, together with ample work surface and storage space. Beyond the kitchen is a useful rear lean-to with tiled flooring and a door opening onto the rear patio. Also on the ground floor is a study and the substantial games room, providing extensive additional 'funky' space and offers considerable flexibility for either residential or commercial purposes. On the first floor are five well-proportioned bedrooms and a generous family bathroom. A particular feature of the property is the attractive first floor living room, a characterful space with exposed floorboards and an electric fire set within a decorative fire surround.
OUTSIDE To the rear of the property is a patio area accessed from the lean-to. It should be noted that two neighbouring properties benefit from rights of access to reach their respective homes, set to the rear of the property. The Post Office also enjoys a right of access along the path situated in front of the neighbouring cottages leading to the garden. The detached rear garden is a particularly appealing feature, being predominantly laid to lawn with a patio seating area and backing directly onto open fields. Enclosed by a variety of mature trees and shrubs, the garden enjoys a good degree of privacy and seclusion, providing an attractive setting for relaxation, entertaining and family enjoyment. There is a driveway to the side of the house, which offers 2 off road parking spaces and access into a block built and rendered workshop just opposite the side entrance door.
