Property description

A most impressive south facing family home which has been renovated and extended to a high specification with a great sense of light and space. Four bedrooms (vaulted en-suite master bedroom with Juliette balcony), two reception rooms and a well-appointed kitchen/dining room. Double garage, ample parking, level landscaped gardens and views over adjoining open countryside.

SITUATION
Situated within the very quiet and peaceful hamlet of Virginstow, nestled amidst glorious rolling countryside on the Devon/Cornwall boarder.  Virginstow is located about mid-way between the friendly villages of St Giles on the Heath and Ashwater, which offer a good range of local amenities.  The market towns of Holsworthy and Launceston between them offer an excellent range of local/national shops, professional services, leisure amenities and schools.  Virginstow is surrounded by some the South West’s finest countryside, and a real bonus is the nearby Roadford Lake with its excellent watersports and fishing opportunities.  For those wishing to travel further afield/commute, the A30 dual carriageway is only about a 10 minute drive and this brings the Cathedral City of Exeter and the M5 to within a comfortable 40 minute drive.
