Gunnislake train station is also 2 miles away and provides a direct connection to the City of Plymouth.

The accommodation provides up to four bedrooms, including three doubles, three bath/shower rooms and two reception rooms in addition to a triple-aspect conservatory. This flexibility should appeal to a variety of buyers, including growing and active families, as well as couples of all ages. The house also benefits from wonderful large gardens, a garage and ample parking space within a gated driveway.

Outside - A good-sized gated driveway provides excellent off-road parking and leads to the garage, which has power and lighting. Surrounding the house on three sides are the property's beautiful, large gardens, providing extensive lawned space interspersed with a range of colourful, established shrubbery and specimen trees. With an open rear aspect, the gardens offer considerable space for active families and those interested in horticulture or wildlife, and contain a tool shed and separate machinery store.

Agent's Notes - East Cornwall is well-known for its history of metalliferous mining. WE understand that a mineral lode runs through the upper part of the rear garden, although our clients possess a mining search, dated 2013, which states that there is no risk to the house itself.
