The property enjoys far-reaching views towards the dramatic landscape of Bodmin Moor, including Sharptor, and lies just outside the International Dark Sky designation, renowned for clear starlit skies.
Despite its rural tranquillity, the property is well placed for access to Callington (3.5 miles), Liskeard (7 miles), Launceston (12 miles), Saltash (13 miles) and Plymouth (18 miles), with the A30 and A38 within easy reach. The Tamar Valley, Kit Hill Country Park, Whitsand Bay and the South Cornish Coast are all close at hand, offering outstanding opportunities for walking, riding, water sports and outdoor pursuits.

About Pilkington Estates, Stoke

Harscombe House 1Darklake View, Plymouth, PL6 7TL

Buying and selling property is both an art and a science. In the 21st century, the world of estate agency has blossomed in the digital environment, leaving many traditional firms left standing, eyeing the technology with confusion and suspicion rather than embracing it. The team at Pilkington Estates are digital natives, embracing everything the modern world has to offer to help present your home in the best possible light, and using technology to get the right message to the right buyer at the right time.

This contemporary, no nonsense approach is balanced by a sensitivity and empathy towards their customers, both buyers and sellers, that allows us to offer a truly one to one bespoke service.

We understand that every customer is different, and each client has different needs and requirements, so will customise any modern method of selling to suit individual requirements.

Whether you are an old hand with multiple sales under your belt, or whether you are selling a much loved family home for the first time, Pilkington Estates are careful to hand hold you through the process as much or as little as you need.

We can help keep your house hunting enthusiasm burning with intelligent recommendations or can take the strain of the entire relocation process by doing all the running around that you are too busy to do.

We sit comfortably in this fast-paced world, understanding your need for urgency. We bring an energy and confidence to the whole buying and selling process that will get the job done without the drama.

This is not an agency that likes to sit around waiting for the phone to ring!
