4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

Nestled within a sought-after conservation area, this exceptional period home spans three floors and offers breathtaking views across the surrounding countryside. Steeped in character, the property retains many original features, including an elegant bay window in the sitting room framing the panoramic rural outlook, charming fireplaces, intricate ceiling roses, ornate coving, and tastefully chosen Karndean flooring throughout the hallway, kitchen, and utility room.

Carefully enhanced in recent years, the home now seamlessly combines timeless elegance with modern comforts. Thoughtful updates include the installation of high-quality, multi-pane sash windows, a mains gas-fired central heating system with bespoke radiator covers, and a full redecoration to a high standard. The heart of the home is a beautifully crafted kitchen/dining space, featuring sleek granite work surfaces and integrated appliances, designed to complement the period style of the property.

The ground floor welcomes you via an inviting hallway with a feature staircase, leading to two stunning reception rooms and the stylish kitchen/dining area, along with a practical utility room and access to external garden stores.

Upstairs, the first floor accommodates three well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted furniture, while the third bedroom enjoys particularly fine views. This floor is served by both a family bathroom/WC and an additional shower room/WC.

A further staircase rises to the second floor, offering a versatile loft-style space ideal for use as a fourth bedroom, a home office, or a gym. Additional built-in storage adds practicality to this upper level.

To the rear, the distinctive slate-hung façade overlooks beautifully landscaped gardens, which have been thoughtfully planted with an array of perennials and flowering shrubs. The main patio provides an idyllic spot for al-fresco dining, while a winding path leads through the lawn to a secondary terrace that maximises the countryside panorama. Below, a lower garden area offers potential for a kitchen garden or informal planting.

Please note, the property does not include off-road parking. However, the current owners hold a private parking arrangement for one vehicle directly opposite the home, at a cost of £200 per year. Buyers are advised to verify the continuation of this agreement independently.

Conveniently located, the property is a short stroll through the historic Castle grounds to the vibrant town centre, which offers a range of independent shops, cafés, eateries, and local amenities. Larger supermarkets, a community-run leisure centre, schools, and healthcare facilities, including a minor injury unit, are also within walking distance.

Launceston's prime position just off the A30 ensures excellent connectivity, with Truro and West Cornwall to the west, and Exeter and the M5 to the east.

Agents Note: A section of the garden’s stone boundary wall is Grade II Listed.
