Landabethick House
The history of Landabethick House is lost in the midst of time, although its origins are believed to be from the 1700s, comprising an ancient farmstead.
The principal stone house has been extended and now comprising extensive living accommodation (approximately 3,091 sq ft) over two floors.
The accommodation is mostly south westerly facing, making the most of the country views over its own land and ancient woodland.
An inviting Entrance Hallway leads to both the Sitting Room and the generous Living Room, the latter opening into a bright Conservatory with doors to an attractive Sun Terrace.
The ground floor also includes a Cloakroom, a well-appointed Kitchen, a separate Breakfast Room, and a practical Utility Room, offering excellent day to day convenience.
Upstairs, the first floor is arranged to provide a spacious Master Bedroom complete with Dressing Room and En Suite. A Family Bathroom, additional Cloakroom, and five further bedrooms, one currently used as a study.
Landabethick offers exceptional versatility for modern family life.
With multiple reception rooms, a dedicated breakfast area, and six additional bedrooms, the layout can easily accommodate changing needs.
The Conservatory and Sun Terrace create additional family leisure spaces, while the generous bedroom configuration allows for playrooms, guest rooms, or dedicated study areas as required.
Buildings
Of particular note is the opportunity to utilise outbuildings for alternative uses (subject to the necessary planning consents).
The two principal stone with slate roof Barns (one single storey and one with loft over) currently providing general garden and domestic storage.
Beyond these is a converted former farm building, now providing a Large Garage and Workshop with roller door; ideal for storage of your mobile home, caravan, classic car, or conversion for equestrian use.

About this agent
Kivells can be traced back to 1885 when William Thomas Kivell set himself up in business as an auctioneer and land agent, first in Pyworthy and then in Holsworthy. What follows is an account of the Kivell family over four generations in the development of the firm of Kivells, from its origins as a one-man business in the late nineteenth century to its position today as one of the leading firms of Auctioneers, property agents and chartered surveyors in the West Country. William Kivell went on to grow the business and was joined by his sons forming Kivell and Sons, selling farm property and holding livestock auctions. Kivells is a very different firm from that founded by William Thomas Kivell in 1885, however the nature of the business and its ethics remain the same all be it with a much larger area of operation. The firm has recently became a limited company with one of the five directors being David Kivell, a great-grandson of William Kivell. It is organised around five divisions:- Agricultural sales and auctions (including the 3 livestock markets at Holsworthy, Hallworthy and Exeter and on farm sales throughout the Westcountry). Farm, Residential and Commercial Property (covering sales, auctions and lettings). Professional and Valuation work (including surveys, property management, rent reviews and full project management) Machinery and Heritage department (specialise in the sale of steam engines and all manner of vehicles, agricultural and domestic bygones). Kivells now operate from 5 main offices (Exeter, Holsworthy, Launceston, Liskeard and Bude) and 3 market centres (Holsworthy, Exeter and Hallworthy) and the firm employs around 170 full and part-time staff.
