Calstock, Cornwall

This spacious period home is far more than meets the eye. Not only is it doused in history and been used over the decades as a tailor, outfitters and photographers, but the accommodation in fact is arranged over three storeys offering versatile accommodation.
There are three double bedrooms and family bathroom on the first floor, A large open plan dual aspect living space with two further reception rooms which could easily be used as further bedrooms on the ground floor and beyond here there is a staircase leading down to an impressive kitchen dining room, further bathroom and family room.
From both the kitchen and family room you can access the rear courtyard garden offering a pleasant area to sit and enjoy some outside space along with a useful timber garden shed.
We believe this property demands an internal inspection to be fully appreciated for it size, character and versatility.

The village of Calstock, in South East Cornwall, is set on the banks of the River Tamar, 7 miles west of Tavistock and 18 miles north of Plymouth. The village is within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a World Heritage site.

The village is defined by narrow streets that climb the side of the Tamar Valley affording wonderful views down the river and over surrounding countryside, dominated by a magnificent railway viaduct. Built in 1907, the viaduct is still in operation today, providing regular branch line rail services from the village station to Plymouth.

Calstock is a thriving village with 2 pubs, a social club, an active Village Hall and a well regarded primary school. Further amenities can be found in nearby Callington and Tavistock, a thriving market town adjoining the western edge of the Dartmoor National Park.

Calstock has a lively arts scene. This includes an excellent contemporary art gallery, 2 local choirs and Calstock Arts, a busy venue for live music, film, comedy and talks. (calstockarts.org)

About a mile downstream is the National Trust property Cothele. This is a mediaeval house and estate offering over 1000 acres of managed countryside, with many miles of wooded paths opening onto views of the river, providing wonderful walking opportunities from the village.

The river Tamar is navigable from above Calstock and there is a village quay, boat yard and deep-water moorings, making it an ideal base for boating enthusiasts. There are golfing facilities in the area, including St. Mellion, which is about 6 miles away.
