3 bed cottage for sale

Upton Cross, Liskeard, Cornwall PL14

Rural yet not remote, secluded but not isolated, Treovis Farm Cottage dates back several centuries and was originally two separate cottages. It now stands as a charming and spacious home at the heart of a peaceful hamlet, elevated above the wooded River Lynher Valley. In more recent times, the property has been thoughtfully extended to offer light and airy accommodation with a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Owned by the current vendors since 2004, the property is set amidst beautifully maintained gardens that wrap around the home. A stable door leads into a welcoming tiled reception hallway, with a ground floor utility room/WC just off. The main lounge is particularly striking, featuring a granite, floor to ceiling fireplace with a clome oven and a multi fuel burning stove, creating a wonderfully cosy ambiance.

The adjacent dining room features exposed beams and ample space for a generously sized dining table. Double doors open to an aluminium framed glazed porch, which provides access to the outdoor areas. The study is light filled and offers an ideal space for home working. The dual aspect kitchen is fitted with solid maple units and includes an electric cooker with a built-in extractor fan.

Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is dual aspect and benefits from into eaves storage, while bedroom two includes a built-in wardrobe. The family bathroom is fitted with a matching four piece suite, including a separate shower cubicle with a Mira electric shower. Additional features include oil fired central heating, UPVC double glazed windows, and a mix of lighting throughout, including recessed downlights and spotlights.

The property is approached via a private shared lane leading to a five bar gate, which opens onto a gravelled driveway with parking for two cars and the single garage with an up and over door. Attached to the house is the workshop, originally the garage, now fitted with power, lighting, and sink.

The gardens are a particular highlight, surrounding the property on all sides and offering an ever changing palette of colour throughout the seasons. Lovingly created and maintained by the current owners, the grounds include a patio with a pergola, a productive vegetable garden, a greenhouse, and established fruit trees. There is something for everyone, whether relaxing outdoors or enjoying the fruits of the land. Two original stone piggeries provide additional useful storage.

Treovis Farm Cottage stands proudly in a rural setting on the edge of Bodmin Moor, a designated area of outstanding natural beauty.
