This detached bungalow is situated at the mouth of a quiet cul-de-sac in the popular village of Five Lanes which is conveniently close to the A30 dual carriageway. It is within walking distance of the famous Bodmin Moor. It would suit buyers looking for an active village life, as well as enjoying dog walks and outdoor pursuits.

Our vendors have made many energy efficient improvements over the ten years of their ownership including an array of solar panels situated on the south facing roof. They feed energy back to the grid, as well as into two batteries situated within the home. A new electric hot water boiler has been installed, as well as wall mounted modern heaters placed throughout the home. They have also had a large conservatory erected to the rear elevation which provides a perfect vantage point to admire the well stocked immaculate gardens.

Inside, most of the rooms are accessed via a central hallway from the front door. The kitchen/diner benefits from light coloured units both below and above a roll top working surface. The electric oven and hob will be included within the sale. There is space for a dining table and chairs. A separate utility room with plumbing for a washing machine provides access to the integral single garage and small useful rear porch. The lounge has a central feature of a multi fuel stove set into the feature fireplace and double doors leading into the conservatory. There are three bedrooms, one with a fitted cupboard and free standing pine wardrobes and drawers that will be included within the sale. All the bedrooms are served by the tiled family shower room.

Outside, the garden to the rear is enclosed and divided into interesting areas including a vegetable patch, formal lawn with established planting around the edge, paved patio, wildlife pond and hard standing for a few timber sheds. The front garden is also laid to lawn and enclosed. There is parking for numerous vehicles on the front drive and access to the garage.

The attractive Moorland village of Altarnun is within 1 mile, boasting amenities including a Post Office facility, village shop, County Primary School and Parish Church famously known as the "Cathedral On The Moor". From this property miles upon miles of walks can be enjoyed over Bodmin Moor. The ancient former market town of Launceston lies within 10 miles to the East and offers a range of shopping, commercial, educational and recreational facilities and is convenient to the A30 trunk road giving access to Truro and West Cornwall in one direction and Exeter and beyond in the opposite direction.
From Launceston Town Centre proceed into Western Road heading towards Pennygillam Roundabout. At the roundabout take the first left hand exit towards Bodmin. Proceed west bound along the A30 for approximately seven miles passing the Esso Garage at Plusha. Take the next left hand exit signposted Altarnun, Five Lanes and Trewint and follow the signposts into Five Lanes. Take a left hand turning in the centre of the village and proceed up the hill passing the Kings Head Public House on the right hand side. Turn left at the mini roundabout where No. 2 Thorn Close will be identified immediately on the left hand side marked with our Webbers For Sale Board.

Excellent access can be gained to the A30 dual carriageway and both Bodmin Moor and Dartmoor. The town is 17 miles from the coastal resort and rugged cliff tops of Bude. Our town square is a conservation area and has a pedestrian-friendly shopping area with cobbled streets.  The Church of St Mary Magdalene in the town centre is one of the most heavily engraved in the country. Typical out-of-town buyers come from the West Midlands and South East seeking retirement/a slower pace of life which is what our county epitomises.  We have a hard-working Launceston in Bloom committee passionate about making the town look attractive throughout all seasons and the Town Council does an excellent job of maintenance and grass cutting.  In 2011 HRH the Duchess of Cornwall opened up a new refurbished Town Hall.
