Property description
Carwen Farm House is a beautiful grade II listed 4 bedroom family home located in the rural hamlet of Carwen on Bodmin Moor.
The property itself offers extremely spacious living accommodation which includes 3 reception rooms together with a generous inner hallway which could serve as a library or games area coupled with an attached two store annexe which does need some refurbishment work.
The property is entered into what is currently being used as a dining room which features wonderful original features such as the sash windows and a granite fireplace with open fire. From this area access is provided to the study as well as the inner hallway.
The majority of the ground floor accommodation benefits from slate flooring which is a wonderful feature of this period home. The formal drawing room, located at the rear of the property, was added many years ago and provides an impressive area for entertaining and features a large fireplace which becomes the focal point of this room.
At first floor level there are four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom itself provides en suite bathroom facilities. From the front facing two bedrooms there are some impressive views on offer through the hardwood sash windows overlooking the front garden towards the rolling countryside in the distance.
Attached to the main accommodation is a two storey annexe which currently consists of a shower room, utility room and first floor bedroom area. This area is in need of some refurbishment works but could easily be transformed into ancillary accommodation for a dependent relative or teenage child. Alternatively this area would suit a purchaser wishing to operate a business or work from home as there is independent access into the annexe via a rear entrance porch.
Carwen Farm House is approached through a wonderfully manicured garden which is mainly laid to lawn and houses a mature range of specimen plants and shrubs. There is also a gravelled driveway which provides parking for a number of vehicles.
The land at Carwen Farm House lies to the south east and comprises of 3 paddocks totalling approx. 11 acres. There is a gate at the bottom of the formal gardens which lead to a spacious and sizeable stable yard which consists of a double height timber barn with 4 stables and machinery store area within. There is also a detached concrete stable block with a further 3 stables within. A 40x20 sand school is also within the immediate vicinity together with generous driveway parking and great access leading straight onto the paddocks.
There is also a small lake located within the boundary of the property which offers a peaceful location to sit and enjoy the view either across the lake or out across the wonderful rural countryside.
All in all, Carwen Farm House provides a spacious family home coupled with some outstanding equestrian facilities located in a rural yet easily accessible location on Bodmin Moor. Property such as this rarely comes into the market place and we would therefore suggest an early internal inspection to appreciate what this superb property has to offer.
