Charming period property in Lydford

For over 300 years, Campion has formed part of what was the hub of the local community - attached to the Old bakery and the village shop and post office. The property has recently been reimagined, remodelled and updated, retaining much of its character and charm with added tweaks and flare to suit modern day living, creating a very unique property.

The kitchen features an original bakers oven, parque flooring, exposed brick work and a pretty window with views to the garden, alongside the comforts of a modern kitchen. A pantry and adjacent utility area cater for a busy household. The living space is unusually substantial in size and combines period features with modern comforts. Original flagstones underfoot, exposed beams, two separate fire places and windows on three walls create a very bright, spacious and comfortable living space.

And for a more intimate setting, there is a separate snug at the front of the property with fibre optic cabling installed, making it ideal for use as a home office. Given the convenient location with main roads and mainline trains within easy reach, Campion is ideal for those enjoying flexible working arrangements.

The first floor features 4 very generous sized bedrooms. All of the bedrooms host large windows, high ceilings and ample space for bedroom furnishings. Three of the bedrooms share a family bathroom which features a separate shower, free standing bath and a window which overlooks the rear garden. The primary bedroom is both charming and impressive. With vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, an ensuite and walk in robe - this is a very comfortable and peaceful retreat. Coupled with the option of access via a separate staircase the feeling of privacy within this suite is enhanced.


Outside
Campion features a pretty cottage style garden, with separate areas of lawn and paving, catering to different needs and desires. Doors open directly from the utility space adjacent to the kitchen, providing very convenient access for al fresco living. The garden is walled and a rear gate provides access to the car park, offering privacy and practicality.

Campions formal entrance faces the road and is flanked either side with large planters framing something quite unique inside. There is off street parking for one vehicle here. Running along the side of the Campion is space for parking for three vehicles. Additionally there is a separate car park with parking for a further vehicle.

A path running directly alongside the property leads through adjacent fields. Offering excellent walks through the local area and leading to Babcary.
