Location:
Callington, Cornwall
Description:
A charming attached period country cottage, parts believed to date back some 500 years with later extensions, constructed of rendered stone elevations under a slate roof. The property has been well maintained and improved over the years, most recently by installing a new multifuel stove/boiler and stainless steel chimney liner and overhauling the upstairs heating. It still retains much of its period charm and character including feature fireplaces with cloam ovens in both reception rooms, flagstone floors, exposed stone walls, sash windows and stripped timber doors, whilst enjoying a light and airy aspect throughout.
The versatile and deceptively spacious accommodation is arranged over two floors and comprises an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, country-style kitchen/breakfast room, utility room and cloakroom on the ground floor, whilst on the first floor there are four bedrooms and a large family bathroom. The cottage also has the benefit of a good sized stone garage accessed internally through the utility room; its pitched roof provides excellent additional storage space. There is a small front garden and an enclosed courtyard to the side of the cottage. We highly recommend that The Haven be viewed internally to appreciate its size.
SITUATION
The property is located in the heart of the sought after hamlet of Lower Metherell, approximately 4 miles from Callington, 8 miles from Tavistock and within easy commuting distance of Plymouth at 16 miles.
Metherell is an attractive small hamlet, situated in the Tamar Valley with its own inn, The Carpenters Arms. There is a post office/general store and primary school at Harrowbarrow less than a mile away.
Callington is a pleasant small town with a good range of shopping facilities, including a new Tesco supermarket, its own primary school and comprehensive schools, branches of three major banks and a modern health centre. The Country Club of St Mellion is 3 miles away with its famous golf courses. Bodmin Moor, Dartmoor and both the north and south coasts of Cornwall are within easy reach. The busy market towns of Liskeard, Launceston, Saltash and Tavistock are all within 8-10 miles.
Tavistock is a thriving market town adjoining the western edge of the Dartmoor National Park and was in 2004 voted the winner of a nationwide survey undertaken by the Council for the Protection of Rural England involving 120 other market towns. Among the assets taken into consideration were history, architecture, community spirit, planning sensitivity, recreational facilities and individuality of shops and businesses. Additional attractions include a hospital, a bustling Pannier Market and a full range of schools both State and Private. Indeed Tavistock can claim to have everything adding up to a quality of life which would be hard to rival.
