PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

It offers plenty of original features and character, two reception rooms, a kitchen and three first floor bedrooms. There is a splendid private walled garden and off road parking. EPC rating C.

Situated within a quiet established location between the town centre and Newport, this one-of a-kind, historic Grade II Listed cottage has been lovingly improved and maintained by our vendors over the ten years of their ownership. They are reluctantly ready to leave their detached home. Though it is described as a cottage, the ceilings are not particularly low and some rooms enjoy multiple windows, most of which are painted hardwood sash in style so it feels quite light and bright most of the day.
         
A small enclosed, gated front garden allows access via a glazed rustic porch into the hallway where the original rag slate floor and polished wood staircase are still in place. The sitting room enjoys wooden shutters to the multi pained sash window and a multi fuel burner is situated within an ornate fireplace on a slate hearth. A separate dining room has a polished timber floor and a corner feature fireplace with a marble hearth. The kitchen is situated within an established extension and offers light oak units above and below a marble effect, roll top working surface. The Neff electric oven and gas hob will be included within the sale. There is plumbing for a dishwasher and washing machine, along with space for a fridge/freezer. A useful cloakroom/WC with hand basin completes the ground floor accommodation.
         
Upstairs, bedroom one enjoys use of the en-suite shower room and dual aspect views with one window looking over the rear garden, as well as, the church tower of St. Stephens in the distance and the other looking out at the ancient Duchy grazing land and Launceston Castle.
      
The double front bedroom has an original fireplace with a slate surround and mantle. The third bedroom is a good size single. The modern family bathroom has a separate tiled shower cubicle and a white three piece suite. Heating and hot water for the whole house is provided by a regularly serviced, mains gas boiler that our vendors had installed about three years ago.
      
Outside, the private rear garden is enclosed by both timber fencing and an ancient local stone wall that offers a great deal of protection to the vast array of established plants which include many small trees and tender plants. Our vendors have had built a substantial timber sun room which they enjoy sitting in whilst observing their pretty garden. A useful stone shed/workshop is in place and parking is provided by a paved driveway that can facilitate a space for one vehicle.
