The Main Cottage, a former Mine Captains house, needs some modernisation, but retains many original features throughout including oak beams in the living room and an original oak panel room divide in the main bedroom. The second bedroom has a pitched roof making a cosy space to relax and is accompanied by two further single bedrooms on the first floor. The bathroom is spacious with a slipper bath and a loo with the most spectacular view across open fields and countryside. Downstairs is a long living room divided by the staircase with an inglenook fireplace at either end. There is a galley kitchen leading to a handy utility room and downstairs shower room, as well as a large flexible room currently being used as a study. The orangery directly overlooks the sun terrace, perfect for viewing the ample birdlife with the first cuppa of the day.
The Annexe, originally three miners cottages, is detached from the main house, currently sitting within its own private plot and has its own access path. With slate floors and stone walls, the spacious entrance hall leads through to an open-plan living room and kitchen, with two bedrooms and a bathroom just down the hall. Perfect for a relative to reside or for use as a holiday let as an extra income.
Outside there are plenty of outbuildings including a large double garage next to a hard stand with parking for multiple vehicles, a stable block with three stables, a tack room and open fronted shelter, and the “ancient mariners” workshop, a large workshop with views across the valley.
Both the properties are situated in 10 acres of private peaceful land made up of rugged fields with natural stone features as well as a terraced patio taking full advantage of the views and winding pathways leading to secret lawns, woodlands and sheltered spaces perfect for the washing line and enjoying a G&T on a warm summer evening.
Set down a long private driveway, the property feels like the ideal rural retreat hidden away from the rest of the world, yet the towns of Callington, Launceston and Tavistock are all within easy driving distance as is the city of Plymouth and the south coast. Gunnislake railway station is nearby and you can get to London by coffee time. St Mellion Golf Club is only a short drive away, and the A38 and A30 are both accessible within a 20 minute drive so it is ideally placed for amenities and road links.
Agents Note
Two disused mine shafts and an opening to a disused adit on the land.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
