A charming countryside retreat offering exceptional versatility, this beautifully arranged character home includes a self-contained annexe, multiple outbuildings, and expansive private gardens. Set in a tranquil rural hamlet near Launceston, it featu

Set within a peaceful rural hamlet, this beautifully distinctive home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the charm and privacy of countryside living while remaining connected to nearby towns and amenities.

The property presents a character-rich environment, composed of a principal residence and a series of versatile outbuildings, all nestled around a central courtyard and framed by far-reaching views and generous outdoor space.

From the moment you arrive, the property conveys a unique sense of place. A gated entrance opens to a paved courtyard that links the various buildings, including the main residence, a detached annexe, workshops, and summerhouses.

Each structure exudes rustic charm, with white-rendered walls, slate roofs, and timber finishes, all softened by climbing plants and well-tended potted greenery.

The main residence flows seamlessly between heritage and functionality, with an inviting entrance leading to an interior brimming with period character. Exposed beams, stone detailing, and wooden-framed windows provide warmth and texture throughout the home.

The living room features a charming hearth and wood-burning stove, perfect for relaxing evenings, while adjoining spaces accommodate both dining and day-to-day family life with flexibility and ease. French doors and multi-pane windows invite natural light into each room, with delightful outlooks over the gardens and surrounding countryside.

The kitchen offers a blend of traditional style and modern utility, with ample workspace and access to a walk-in pantry. A dedicated utility area provides further practical convenience, and multiple bedrooms across two floors allow for a variety of living arrangements.

The home also includes a tastefully finished bathroom with both a bath and a shower, plus a further ground-floor cloakroom with a hand-basin and a WC.

Across the courtyard, a beautifully finished detached annexe enjoys its own private entrance, offering open-plan living with a well-fitted kitchen, lounge area and access to a secluded paved patio - ideal for al fresco dining or morning coffee in the sun. A double bedroom and separate shower room make this an ideal guest retreat, work-from-home space, or potential letting opportunity, all tucked away from the main house.

The outdoor space surrounding the property enhances the overall sense of tranquillity and lifestyle appeal. A spacious lawn stretches from the main buildings, bordered by hedging and trees for privacy.

This area is home to two attractive summerhouses - ideal for creative pursuits, relaxation, or as occasional accommodation - as well as a potting shed, garden storage, and a variety of plant beds. The grounds offer space for enjoying nature, growing produce, or simply soaking up the quiet.

The property is situated just outside the market town of Launceston in east Cornwall, placing it within convenient reach of a broad range of educational, transport and green-space amenities. Local schooling is well covered, with top-rated options such as Altarnun Primary School for younger children and Launceston College (ages 11-18) available in the town.

Launceston Primary School, slightly beyond, also add flexibility for families. Transport access is straightforward - the nearby A30 trunk route provides speedy links across Cornwall and Devon, and local bus and foot-cycle path improvements are underway to enhance connectivity.

For green space and outdoor lifestyles, there are extensive trails, bridleways and countryside just beyond the doorstep, and new path and parkland projects have been developed around Launceston to improve walking and cycling links and encourage nature appreciation.

This combination makes the setting particularly attractive for families, countryside-lovers and those seeking a well-connected base in a rural yet accessible location.
