Lower Metherell, Callington

A large, detached five bedroomed family home with front and rear garden and private parking nestling in the heart of the pretty Cornish hamlet of Lower Metherell. Offered for sale with No Onward Chain.

SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
This large, detached, family sized home provides spacious and versatile living accommodation arranged over two floors and including a 20’ sitting room, conservatory, a 25’ kitchen breakfast room, separate dining room plus five spacious bedrooms (master ensuite), a family bathroom and separate shower room.

The house benefits from PVCu double glazing throughout and is warmed by oil fired central heating served by a floor standing Worcester boiler. The house has been generally well maintained and is ready to move into immediately but is old fashioned in parts and would benefit from a degree of modernisation and refurbishment.

Callington, which is just 4.5 miles from Metherell, is an attractive small town situated within easy commuting distance of the city of Plymouth which is 15 miles away with its fast Inter City rail links to London, Bristol and the North as well as ferry services to Roscoff, Brittany and Santander, Northern Spain. Callington has a good range of shopping facilities, including a Tesco supermarket, and its primary school and comprehensive schools. There is a full range of sporting facilities in the area, including the Country Club of St. Mellion, 3 miles away with its famous golf courses. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, Callington is a very short distance from the Tamar Valley, Bodmin Moor, and Dartmoor. The busy market towns of Liskeard, Launceston, Saltash and Tavistock are all within 8-10 miles.

OUTSIDE
At the front of the house, there is a private parking area sufficient for three cars parked side by side. A gate in the fence leads to the front garden which is predominantly laid to lawn and edged with well-established flowering beds and borders, plants, and shrubs. A path leads to the paved sun terrace and the front and side entrance doors. A useful, lockable storage hut is provided.

Pedestrian side access leads around the house to the rear courtyard which is private and sheltered and a perfect spot for outdoor eating and entertaining.

From here, steps lead up to the main garden where there is a large, paved patio complete with brick-built BBQ, a large, decked seating area and level, lawned garden curtailed by substantial timber panel fencing and neatly trimmed Laurel hedging.

From the decked seating area, there are pleasant views over the hamlets of Lower and Higher Metherel to the open countryside beyond.
