Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • A secluded, detached bungalow offering three bedrooms and in need of modernisation.
  • There are 2.25 acres of natural woodlands and garden providing plenty of safe habitat for local wildlife.
  • Single garage and private drive providing off road parking for numerous vehicles.
  • Easy access to the A30 dual carriageway.
  • No close neighbours.
  • No onward chain.
Brentor View is situated just off the old A30 close to the Cornish town of Launceston and the west Devon village of Lifton. It is conveniently placed approximately a mile from the more modern dual carriageway. Arguably the closest neighbours reside on other side of the natural woodland that surround this detached bungalow.

This secluded property is entered via a private drive that along with the single garage provides off road parking in tandem for numerous vehicles. The rendered bungalow is hidden from the road behind hedges, trees and established planting. We are told is was built during the mid 1930’s. Our vendor has lived there since 1990 and have prided themselves on how they have preserved the 2.25 acres of grounds that is mainly made up of woodlands. They have encouraged lots of natural wildlife to visit including many species of birds, rabbits, hedgehogs along with deer and hares. A large area, close to the bungalow has been securely fenced off so safe for dogs to use the garden without roaming too far from home. They have built a timber summer house, an ideal spot to sit and quietly observe the comings and goings of this enchanting habitat. There are also two other useful sheds and some bird coops.

The bungalow is entered at the front via a small porch and then into the light, bright living room that offers a comfortable place to rest and watch television. The dining room offers space for a table and chairs, as well access to a simple shower room with a white hand basin, matching WC and glazed shower unit.

Bedroom three is single in size and bedroom one was formally two single bedrooms, large enough now to accommodate a double bed and wardrobe. Bedroom two was formed by an extension and is accessed from the kitchen. The kitchen enjoys an array of cupboards both wall and floor mounted. There is plumbing and space for a washing machine and under counter fridge, as well as an electric cooker. A short lobby takes you to a WC and then outside to a covered area and animal pen and store.

The bungalow is heated by calor gas central heating and most of the windows are double glazed. This secluded property will suit buyers looking to put their own mark on their home, as well as enjoying plenty of outside space and nature.

Within two miles is the village of Lifton which has a traditional range of facilities such as a Village Post Office and Stores, a County Primary School, a Doctors Surgery, Petrol Filling Station, Hotels, Public Houses and Community Centre. Further comprehensive shopping, commercial and recreational facilities can be located in either Launceston (7 miles), Okehampton (14 miles), or the Devon Stannary Town of Tavistock (11 miles). Excellent transport links by road, rail and air (Exeter International Airport) can be found in the Cathedral City of Exeter which is about 37 miles distant and the Continental Ferryport and City of Plymouth is approximately 26 miles distant.
