Canworthy Water, Launceston, Cornwall, PL15

This detached bungalow, we are told, was originally constructed during the 1930's and has been extended over the years. It is situated within a rural farming area close to the North Cornwall coast and beaches. Our vendors have made it their home for the past eleven years and have commissioned many improvements of their own including having a large, bright and airy conservatory installed, along with an elevated timber decked seating area and vantage point. They have also had a spacious and useful utility room added off the modern fitted kitchen.

The garden is currently divided into three areas with the front being mainly laid to lawn and edged with well stocked attractive flower beds. The side garden is more productive with a greenhouse and raised vegetable beds. The owners also keep chickens here. The large rear garden is mainly laid to lawn which in turn leads to a large concrete parking area and a useful block built shed. An attractive gate is in place to separate the parking from the road in front of the property.

Inside, the comfortable home benefits from double glazing and is heated by oil fired central heating which is underfloor in the kitchen, utility room and conservatory. On entering the property via a spacious and welcoming porch there are three double bedrooms accessed from the hallway, with two of them enjoying fitted wardrobes and one has the exclusive use of a tiled en-suite bathroom. There is also a smaller versatile bedroom, currently used as an office and a tiled family shower room. The living room has a bay window overlooking the front garden and an attractive electric fire installed onto the chimney breast. There is a step up to the dining area that also opens into the large conservatory, with doors opening out onto the decked patio. The kitchen has been refurbished with an array of modern units positioned both above and below an attractive composite working surface. The American fridge freezer, dishwasher, electric oven and hob, along with the extractor fan over are to be included within the sale. In the utility room there is space and plumbing for a washing machine, as well as further useful cupboard space.

This property will suit buyers looking to be privately situated within a rural community but also have the beautiful Cornish beaches close by.

Glen View is positioned close to the small North Cornish village of Canworthy Water, ten miles from Launceston town and eleven from Bude. It’s under six miles to the coast at Crackington Haven, where you will find a delightful small beach, café and a pub. The A30 dual carriageway is eight miles away, providing excellent road links to Exeter and Truro. Within a few miles at nearby Wainhouse Corner you will find a pub, post office/shop and a garage. There are two local primary schools at Jacobstow and Warbstow.

The ancient former market town of Launceston offers a range of shopping, educational and recreational facilities. For those seeking more extensive amenities both the Cathedral Cities of Exeter and Continental Ferry port of Plymouth can all be reached within an hour.

The property’s close proximity to the rugged North Cornish coast provides easy access to the South West Coast path and villages including Boscastle, Tintagel and Port Isaac for walks, beaches and places to explore and enjoy.
