St Breward, Bodmin 5 bed character property for sale

A most appealing traditional farmhouse that has been extended and improved to provide very comfortable family accommodation, that would now benefit from general refurbishment and redecoration. It comprises three reception rooms, two of which have open fireplaces, a study/office, generous kitchen/breakfast room, utility room and a downstairs bathroom. At first floor there are four bedrooms and ‘Jack & Jill' style bathroom. Many windows are uPVC double glazed and the house is warmed by oil-fired central heating.

The Property
The holiday cottage called ‘Lavender Barn' is presented as a comfortable one bedroom home and has in the past been used as a holiday let.

In addition to the cottage there are various other outbuildings, notably a large garage, workshop and barn extending to over 2,200sqft plus a further 243sqft garage.

The whole property is hidden away within approximately 2.7 acres of gardens that have been carefully and diligently created by the current owners over the last 35 years or so. Secreted amongst the mature trees and plethora of shrubs are two wildlife ponds and two polytunnels.

Agents note 2nd August 2024. It has been disclosed that Japanese Knotweed exists within the gardens. The sellers have agreed to pay for a 5 year insurance backed treatment plan that will be acceptable to the majority of mortgage lenders.

Situation
A wonderful opportunity to ‘get away from it all' with this delightful property. Tucked away off a cul-de-sac lane, with only two neighbours, there is a definite feeling of being miles from anywhere, yet the village of St Breward, with its popular public house and primary school, is just 1½ miles away. The secluded setting is also well-situated for easy access to larger towns such as Camelford, Bodmin and Launceston offering a wide range of shopping, schooling, health and leisure facilities being 7, 12 and 21 miles respectively. Cornwall's arterial route, the A30, is 6 miles distant putting the likes of Truro, Exeter and Plymouth within regular commuting distance.
