Detached house for sale in Dunheved Road, Launceston PL15

Offered with no onward chain. Situated on a sought after residential road is this substantial reverse-level detached 5 bedroom family home. The layout could suit dual-family occupancy, with the option to reconfigure the lower ground floor into an annexe, either as a rental or Airbnb (stpc). Extensive parking and west facing large rear gardens.

Now offered with no onward chain. In recent years this large reverse level family home has been refurbished, including a modern contemporary Kitchen/Breakfast room, new mains gas central heating boiler and hot water cylinder, rewired including multi-function lighting and Oak veneer internal doors throughout.

The property currently has bedrooms and bath/shower rooms on both floors and therefore the layout is suitable for dual family occupancy. In addition, the lower ground floor has the potential to create a self contained annexe, by undertaking some internal modifications. This could then perhaps provide an income from letting or Airbnb. There is also an external door from this floor leading to a part covered area, ideal as a patio and a driveway to the side which could be used for tenants or holiday makers to park.

Outside there is ample parking for several types of vehicles and an extensive West facing rear garden and sun balcony which is accessed from the Lounge/Dining Room.

Location

Conveniently located near the end of this sought after residential area of Launceston and within easy walking distance of the social, commercial and shopping facilities of the town centre. Close at hand is the secondary school, Launceston College and the main park with Leisure Centre including swimming pool and squash courts.

The town shopping facilities include quirky independent shops with a monthly butter market selling local crafts and produce, together with big names such as Marks & Spencer Food Hall, Tesco, Iceland, Argos and Pets at Home on the outskirts. The town's skyline is dominated by the ruins of a Norman castle that stands high on a hillside with dramatic views over Bodmin moor and Dartmoor. The castle was a strategically important building after the Norman Conquest and its green was used for executions until the 19th century.

Launceston is situated between the north and south coasts, so is convenient for beaches and the Cornish countryside. The surrounding area offers leisure for all types including two golf courses and Roadford Lake Country Park where visitors can fish, sail, windsurf, cycle, row, kayak and camp. The A30 is adjacent to the town and will see you onto the M5 at Exeter in under 45 minutes and the A388 will get you to Plymouth in under an hour. The seaside resort of Bude is just 17 miles away. The nearest mainline train stations can be found in Gunnislake and Liskeard, being approximately 16 and 20 miles respectively from Launceston.
