Lawhitton, Launceston, Cornwall, PL15

This high quality country residence was individually designed and constructed in the mid 1980’s. The residence presents a high quality, flexible space suitable for a wide variety of purchasers, although is in need of some cosmetic improvement in places. Many who work from home could make use of the large office suite, with a separate WC and utility storage space, or has the potential to house multi-generational families.

Externally, the property has a sweeping in and out driveway, attractive gardens with an adjoining pasture paddock. The stable block is ideal for those with horses although they have been repurposed as storage and workshop space currently. A sociable bar area and snooker room, a great space for relaxing, is located within the block, which adds to the appeal.

Beyond the quality exterior lies the deceptive, split level, reversed accommodation which opens into the welcoming reception dining hall, which is a room in itself and gives access to the former double garage which was converted many years ago into a large office suite, benefiting from plenty of natural light. This room has a separate WC and a further utility/storage room within. The current two bay integral double garage has two double opening doors opening onto the front drive.

The dual aspect family kitchen/family/breakfast room is light and airy and has views over the field. Fitted with a range of matching cream units and breakfast bar the kitchen benefits from a fitted 'Cata' ceramic hob with extractor, a 'Blomberg' double electric oven, a 'Russell Hobbs' microwave and an integrated 'Bosch' dishwasher. From this area, the best of the views can be enjoyed over the surrounding gardens and farmland and has a very useful larder.

The central sitting room, as well as the kitchen/family room, have access to the front balcony, which is the perfect position in which to sit to enjoy the morning sun and the outstanding views. The sitting room features a wood burner and also has access to the rear sun trap patio area.

The master bedroom suite has a range of fitted furniture to include wardrobes, cupboards, dressing table, drawers and further bedside units and benefits from an en-suite bathroom/WC with a separate shower cubicle. The second bedroom lies to the rear, with access to the rear patio, and is extremely spacious, with two further bedrooms and a shower room/WC completing the accommodation.

Pound Court has hardwood sealed unit double glazed windows and warmth is supplied by LPG fired central heating.

At the front, adjacent to the driveway, a feature pond has been created with two further ponds (with a pump) located at the foot of the garden, one of which has an island and feature bridge. The lawn sweeps around the side of the property, encompassing an ancient Oak tree and at the immediate rear, the patio courtyard area is extensive and offers plenty of space for outside dining during the warmer months, with the summerhouse elongating the use in the colder months.

Behind, there is a further hard standing turning area for the positioning of further vehicles or motorhomes, with a static caravan in situ at the top of the drive.

The stable block complex is a huge asset to Pound Court. There are two loose boxes measuring 12 foot by 12 foot (3.66m x 3.66m), a ride on lawn mower shed and a further pump room which houses the mechanics for the private water supply.
