Property description
DESCRIPTION
Gallows Hill is a unique modern dwelling built at the end of the 20th Century to discerning standards in terms of design, materials, landscape gardens, layout and setting.
The property is in many ways a ‘wolf in sheep’s clothing’ in terms of both the accommodation contained within, styling, infrastructure and fitment of the dwelling. A spacious detached traditional barn offers enormous further scope. All complemented by some 5 acres of land in a ring fence overlooked by the dwelling.
The property has mains gas central heating and cooking, double glazing, easy maintenance quality finished floors in many areas, LED lighting, generous supply of USB ports and a clever dog watch monitoring system.
All three bathrooms / shower rooms have Karndean flooring.
SITUATION
The pretty area of Launceston known as St. Stephens sits on the south facing slope of the Kensey Valley looking back at Launceston on the opposite hill. Huddled around a Norman Castle the pretty Medieval streets of Launceston have a superb collection of listed town buildings. The centre provides a range of social, commercial and shopping facilities with many superb boutique local shops and typical former market town historic charm.
Beside the property is Launceston’s beautiful 18 hole golf course, St. Stephens Church which is the oldest church in the town and St. Josephs Independent School.
Launceston enjoys a good balance of travel distance east and west to the pretty cities of Exeter and Truro with Plymouth a similar distance to the south. Consequently there is good access to M5 motorway link, intercity rail link, international airport and continental ferry port.
Midway between north and south coasts on the Tamar Valley which dissects Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor there is scenery of outstanding natural beauty in all directions easily reached from the town. A feature of the property is its private and sunny location. At any time of day there are paved areas one can utilise for tranquil relaxation, a unique gardenscape with many trees and stream running through.
