The popular harbour village of Boscastle on the north Cornish coast is around 3½ miles away and offers a good range of day to day amenities. The A39 Atlantic Highway is just over 2 miles away and provides an excellent link to the towns of Bude, Launceston, Wadebridge and Camelford, which offer a wide range of amenities.

Description
If you are after a project Anderton Farmhouse is it - a fantastic blank canvas set in a lovely quiet setting. Uninhabitable in its current state, the property requires complete renovation and modernisation. There are no services are connected.

The original part of the farmhouse is constructed of stone whilst later additions (thought to have been built in the War) are brick, under a slated roof. Partly built into the bank behind, there is a rear exit door on the first floor level with possible annexe potential.

Inside, the property is still divided into various rooms with some original flagstone flooring at ground floor level. Two staircases lead up to the first floor.

Set in 0.50 acres, there is a large level area to the front which would make a great garden with driveways to both sides.
