EPC Rating - E
Penlaurel is a striking detached period residence offering elegant and beautifully presented accommodation, set within generous private gardens in the sought-after hamlet of Daws House, just moments from Launceston and the A30.
The property combines classic character with modern comfort, with high ceilings, sash style windows and attractive fireplaces creating a home of real charm and presence. The ground floor provides a wonderful balance of reception space including a welcoming entrance hall, elegant living room and dual aspect drawing room, together with a characterful dining room featuring a log burning stove and cloam oven.
To the rear of the house a spacious kitchen fitted with solid oak work surfaces and range cooker flows naturally into a bright garden room, forming an excellent everyday living and entertaining space with views and access to the gardens. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor with
access to the wine cellar from the hallway. The first floor offers three generous double bedrooms, including a principal suite with dressing area and ensuite shower room, together with a well appointed family bathroom.
Outside the property enjoys established gardens arranged mainly to lawn with mature shrubs, flowering borders and patio seating areas. A large private driveway provides extensive parking, while a garage and hot tub pavilion add further lifestyle appeal. A beautifully presented period home offering space, privacy and convenience in equal measure.
SITUATION
Penlaurel is situated in the small and popular hamlet of Daws House, only a few minutes’ drive from the town of Launceston to the east and the village of South Petherwin to the west, which offers a local public house, village hall and primary school.
Launceston offers a wide range of social, commercial and shopping facilities including primary and secondary schooling, a range of supermarkets and a comprehensive retail centre. Launceston occupies a strategic location with a better balance of travel distance to all parts of the two counties than any other centre due to the A30 dual carriageway.
Exeter, to the east (42 miles), provides an intercity rail link, M5 motorway access and an international airport, whilst the city of Plymouth, 28 miles to the south, provides an intercity rail link and continental ferry port.
In all directions from Launceston is scenery of outstanding natural beauty, be it the North Cornish coastline or the open expanses of Bodmin Moor to the west. To the east is Dartmoor National Park and running southwards is the hidden secrets of the Tamar Valley steeped in 18th Century mining history.
