A character-filled period home offering spacious, flexible living and stunning countryside views - set within generous gardens in A peaceful cornish village.
The Property
Situated in the peaceful rural village of Boyton, just a short drive from Launceston, Queens Acre is a much-loved detached home with 250 years of history. Unlisted and rich in original features, it blends traditional charm with modern comfort and offers flexibility for future alterations if desired.
The welcoming entrance hall, with its flagstone flooring and fireplace with wood burner, sets the tone for the period character found throughout. The drawing room is bright and elegant, featuring a period open fireplace and French windows with original shutters. At the heart of the home is a spacious open plan kitchen and dining area with an oil-fired aga, electric oven and hob, plate warmer, and under counter fridge. A utility room with shower and the oil fired boiler sits just off the kitchen, while a downstairs WC adds further convenience.
A separate office provides a quiet space to work or study. The formal dining room, with wood-burning stove and a large front-facing window, offers a warm, welcoming space for entertaining. The Sitting Room, with another open fireplace and shuttered windows, completes the generous ground floor layout. Upstairs, the large open landing leads to five bedrooms and two bathrooms. The impressive principal bedroom has an end suite shower and far-reaching countryside views towards Laneast. A second spacious double enjoys garden views, built-in storage, and its own basin. Three further double bedrooms—one slightly smaller—are well suited to family or guests. A family bathroom and additional shower room serve the remaining bedrooms.
The Location
Queens Acre is situated in the quiet rural village of Boyton, surrounded by rolling North Cornwall countryside. The setting offers a peaceful lifestyle with easy access to local walking routes, bridleways, and open farmland—ideal for those who enjoy nature and outdoor pursuits.
The nearby town of Launceston is just a short drive away, providing a range of amenities including shops, schools, healthcare, and leisure facilities, along with historic landmarks such as Launceston Castle. The, north Cornish coast, including the popular seaside town of Bude, is also within easy reach for beach days and coastal walks.
Despite its tranquil setting, the property benefits from good transport links via the A30, offering straightforward access to Exeter and the M5. This combination of rural seclusion and accessibility makes the location well suited for both full-time residence and those commuting or working from home.
Outside
Queens Acre sits on a substantial plot that offers privacy and space to enjoy outdoor living. The gardens include lawned areas, a productive vegetable patch, and a generous greenhouse, making it ideal for keen gardeners. A gravelled driveway offers plenty of gated parking. The property also features a range of useful outbuildings, including a detached workshop or home office space that is fully insulated with electricity connected and water supply ready for installation subject to planning. Additional storage areas and garaging add further practicality, while a separate outbuilding to the rear offers more storage options.
