Property description

An outstanding four bedroom classic Georgian Farmhouse which has been sympathetically updated and modernised taking the age and character of the property into consideration. With a fabulous fully fitted kitchen/family room which opens into the rear courtyard.  There are two separate reception rooms with period features, to include an exposed brick wall and Inglenook to the sitting room.  There is a separate Snug/Study.  The spacious landing opens into four bedrooms, the master having a large en suite shower room.  Externally, the property has a large frontage and garage, providing ample parking and a private, secluded rear garden.  We understand from the current owners that there may be additional land available to rent, for those that need it, for a horse or pony.
 
SITUATION
Enjoying a lovely peaceful location in a tiny hamlet of just a handful of other properties, in the northern most parish in Cornwall, Mornwenstow.  The parish benefits from an OFSTED rated ‘outstanding’ primary school, a well-respected public house, numerous coves including Duckpool and Marsland Mouth, rugged cliffs and national trust owned Coombe Valley.  There are superb coastal and inland walks to be enjoyed and the parish is one of the most picturesque parts of North Cornwall.  The self-contained village of Kilkhampton lies approximately four miles distant with a CO-OP, Premier Stores and Spar for day to day shopping plus a butchers and many more small businesses.  Bude, the closest major town, is some five miles further on and has the main comprehensive school, a choice of supermarkets, a rejuvenated canal area, plus two sandy beaches.  Bideford, to the north, also has a range of excellent facilities and there is easy access onto the north Devon link road leading to the M5, Bristol and beyond.

All measurements are approximate.  There are numerous power points throughout.  None of the fittings have been tested by ourselves.
