Chapel, Launceston, Cornwall, PL15

This substantial house comes to the market with no onward chain offering a versatile home to a variety of purchasers. Thought to have been built by a local builder during 2004 it is situated within a private location offering some fine views of Launceston town which is less than a mile away. The detached property is approached by a private drive passing a well kept lawn. The tarmac driveway offers space to park numerous vehicles and a double garage.

On entering into the double glazed porch, double doors open into a welcoming reception hall that offers access to one flight of stairs and a large sitting room enjoying the view towards the town and the front drive through large double glazed picture windows. There is also a useful study and a cloakroom/WC.

Five steps lead up to a landing area with access to the dual aspect dining room which has sliding patio doors opening onto a rear decked area. There is also a generous garden room and a utility room housing the mains gas boiler and the collector for the central vacuum system. Within the utility room there are full length cupboards, as well as a range of shaker style cupboards with granite effect worksurfaces, a stainless steel sink and drainer inset and a washing machine which is included in the sale. A generous conservatory provides a perfect all season vantage place to admire the garden. The kitchen is fully furnished with a vast array of shaker style units with a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, electric oven, hob and extractor fan all integrated and included within the sale. There is a matching central island.

The next level offers two double bedrooms both with unusual triangular dormer windows. One has fitted wardrobes and exclusive use of a tiled en-suite shower room and the other has some bespoke shelving. The top floor hosts the remaining two double bedrooms, one of which has wall to wall built-in wardrobes and the tiled family bathroom which has a corner shower cubicle as well as a bath.

The property is heated by mains gas central heating and is double glazed. There is also a mechanical ventilation system installed that helps clean the air within the home as well as cooling it during the hot summer months.

Outside, the rear garden has been sympathetically planted with relatively easy to maintain plants and has a network of paved pathways and patios as well and a shielded area that houses a useful timber garden shed and green house. A good quality log cabin with power supply and a small mezzanine landing forms a big feature of the garden. It could have a whole host of uses including a home office, garden room, child's play space or hobby room.


The property is located on the outskirts of the town and yet is within a walk to many town facilities including a local primary school, Launceston College and the Asda store on Western Road. The busy town centre has as well as recreational facilities including the community run leisure centre. Slightly further away, and still within a decent walk, are a choice of supermarkets, Launceston hospital and medical centre and walks out into the open countryside can be enjoyed within a few steps of the house, with a pedestrian access to lovely country walks towards Trebursye and, in opposite direction, St. Catherines Hill and the Chapel area of the town.

Launceston lies adjacent to the A30 dual carriageway providing great access to Truro and West Cornwall in one direction and Exeter, the M5 and beyond in the opposite direction. The city of Plymouth is within 25 miles and has more extensive facilities and a Continental Ferryport.
From Launceston town centre head along Western Road towards Pennygillam. Take the first right hand turning just after the pedestrian crossing and head down the hill. As you head up the other side turn sharp right at the junction with Meadowside and take the immediate sharp right hand turning into Chapel Park. Follow the road round to the left and head up to the top of Chapel Park. The entrance to Oaklands is directly opposite, marked with a Webbers For Sale board. Bear left as you enter the driveway and you will find Oaklands situated at the end of the drive.
