The following is a quotation from the home owner:
“Myself and the family have enjoyed our time at The Coach House, having purchased the property as a redundant barn and seeing it form into a family home. This year was the first year we hosted Christmas Day having the extra space for family to stay was great. We found the property great for entertaining having hosted a couple of parties, the living room being above the kitchen certainly helps this, it would have been nice to have used the patio and garden for some summer BBQ’s.”
Launceston, the Ancient Capital of and acknowledged gateway to Cornwall sits astride the A30 one mile from the Devon/ Cornwall border, in an area of considerable beauty and charm with easy access to both North and South Coasts as well as to the cities of Exeter, Plymouth and Truro.
Dating back to Celtic times the whole of Launceston is steeped in history and is dominated by its Castle built by Brian de Bretagne the first Norman Earl of Cornwall in the 11th Century. Once the site of the Royal Mint and the only walled town in Cornwall the Launceston of today has much to offer and to reward both business and leisure interests.
There is a town trail for visitors to follow which highlights the ancient architecture and historical features including the 16th Century Church of St. Mary Magdalene which has one of the most lavishly carved exteriors of any Church in England. There are three other churches as well as a Methodist Chapel and Kingdom Hall, three Primary Schools, one private school and Launceston College, so both spiritual and secular needs are well served.
The town has a range of shopping, commercial and leisure facilities, with supermarkets, its retail park and leisure centre. Nearer to the property is the challenging 18 hole golf course and many delightful walks along the Kensey Valley.
From Launceston Town Centre proceed down the A388 (St. Thomas Road). Upon reaching the roundabout at Newport continue straight ahead up into St. Stephens along the B3254. Upon entering St. Stephens, pass the Church on the right hand side and The Coach House will be found on the right hand side marked with a Fine and Country For Sale Board.
