Rick Meadow, Yeolmbridge, Launceston, Cornwall, PL15

This bungalow has been in the ownership of our client for over 40 years. It was individually designed and features high ceilings, sociable light and airy rooms and presents an opportunity for a buyer to modernise to suit their own tastes. There are many modern comforts such as oil fired heating, double glazing and a PV solar array which minimises outgoings.

The open plan split level reception space has an imposing high ceiling and room for dining, relaxing and entertaining. The lounge area has a wood burning stove and leads out to the large ‘L’ shaped conservatory that was added many years ago. From the dining area a spiral staircase ascends up to the mezzanine study which is perfect for those who work from home. The kitchen has a built-in electric hob and oven and a fridge/freezer and leads through to the utility room which has further units, large sink and a separate WC. From here the integral double garage is connected by a side porch.

The three bedrooms are large enough to accommodate double beds and the larger two have built-in wardrobes and storage; bedroom one has a small private balcony which makes the best of the views over the garden and Ottery Valley. The family shower room is fully tiled and includes a generous shower tray.

Externally, the level south facing gardens are well enclosed and colourful with many mature shrubs, bushes, patio areas and lawn where both sun and shade can be found throughout the day. A summerhouse provides escapism and a lower patio is designed for BBQ’s. There are views over rooftops towards the Ottery Valley and surrounding farmland. The driveway has plenty of parking and beyond is the double garage with an automatic up and over door. There is a separate workshop at the side. The bungalow would suit a wide range of buyers in particular those who wish to enjoy a village location yet be within a few miles of Launceston.

Yeolmbridge lies approximately three miles north of Launceston which offers a wide range of shopping, commercial, educational and recreational facilities. Werrington Village is one mile away where there is a County Primary school. Yeolmbridge lies adjacent to the B3254 between Launceston and Bude making the coastal resort of Bude (renowned for its coast line walks and sandy beaches) reasonably accessible. The A30 dual carriageway is found within two miles of the property giving excellent access to Truro and West Cornwall in one direction and Exeter and beyond in the opposite direction. Further comprehensive shopping, leisure and transport links can be found at either the Cathedral City of Exeter (45.5 miles) or the Continental Ferryport and City of Plymouth (28 miles). Miles of countryside walks can be enjoyed direct from your front door.
