Property description



Glovers is located at the end of a no through road with an idyllic outlook over adjacent farmland. A grass meadow on the opposite side of the lane to the house, runs down to the river Ter. It is understood that the original property dates back to the early nineteenth century and still has many of its original features, including inglenook fireplaces, exposed studwork and cast iron fireplaces. The current owners have during their time, undertaken a major redevelopment of the property, sympathetically adding a substantial two storey extension to the side. Some older period homes can struggle with light, that certainly is not the case with Glovers, the three ground floor reception rooms all have windows to at least two aspects. The spacious kitchen diner looks out over the gardens to both front and side creating a light room ideal for family's and entertaining alike. A very useful utility room and downstairs shower room complete the ground floor. To the first floor there are four double bedrooms the master of which has its own en-suite shower room with the other three being served by the well appointed family bathroom. A stair case leads up to the second floor, whilst there is restricted head height here, this really is a very usable space as evidenced by the current owners who have it set up as a home office. With windows to both ends of this attic room there are some quite stunning views to both front and rear. Externally the gardens and grounds have been landscaped to create a most attractive outlook with mature well stocked beds and borders. There is ample parking at the property with a sweeping shingle carriage driveway and double cart lodge. The situation and setting of this property are really something special, call us today and come see for yourself.

Cart Lodge The cart lodge measures approximately 25ft x 15ft, there is connected power and lighting to the building.

There is also a rear gate giving access to the rear boundary for maintenance. There are raised shrub beds directly behind the house which are well stocked with mature bushes and plants.
