Detached house for sale in Laddenvean, St. Keverne TR12

The property

Built in 1997 this energy efficient property provides in excess of 1,600 square feet and is full of natural light. Sitting in an elevated position Tarragon is fortunate to have wonderful views over a portion of the village, farmland and a distant view of Falmouth Bay. Our vendors have lived and enjoyed this home for the last 11 years . Sold with no onward chain!
Looking like a Swiss chalet from the outside but with a much more English layout inside. The sitting room is large and opens into the dining room which in turn leads to the kitchen and a utility room. Also on the ground floor is a breakfast/reading room that makes the most of the morning sun and a downstairs bedroom with a shower room next door (ideal for those who have elderly family members staying). Upstairs there are three double bedrooms with the master having en-suite shower facilities and a wonderful balcony to sit and enjoy the views. Storage space, a loft area and a bathroom are also accessed via the first floor. All is well-presented and thanks to the current owner’s future planning, the new owner will benefit from the solar panel income for many years and the air-sourced heat pump that gives energy-efficient heating and hot water. UPVC Triple-glazed windows throughout and UPVC double glazed doors. The property is approached via a private no-through lane that services just three properties and at the top of the lane there is ample parking on the gravelled area. The curtilage of the property extends to all sides and there is a real feeling of space and freedom rarely afforded in a village location.

The location

Tarragon is situated on the Lizard Peninsula in a fantastic location, with commanding views over unspoilt farmland and in the distance to Falmouth Bay. Nowadays, properties in natural and special locations like this one are very hard to find, especially being so elevated with wonderful views. The thriving village of St Keverne has an active community and a good range of amenities including a Primary School, village shop and post office, butcher, church, two good public houses and there is also a health centre with dispensary. St Keverne Silver Band is famous and talented and the focus of several annual summer events such as the ox roast. Clubs and societies include the wi, historical, gardening, snooker, bowling and pantomime to name a few. Roskilly's Farm is just on the outskirts of the village, providing gastronomic delights, lovely artisan ice cream and family entertainment throughout the year. Also close by is The Greenhouse Restaurant a small modern Bistro and The Fat Apples.... Home to a lovely family and offering very tasty food and events throughout the summer. (Highly recommended to visit). Two miles from the village (although a much shorter walk across the fields and footpath) is the beautiful sandy beach at Coverack. Coverack is a time capsule of a fishing cove and a safe place to swim or enjoy the wind-surfing, kayaking or bodyboarding that can be rented at Sams Quay. Areas of surrounding countryside and coastline are spectacular and enchanting. The nearby Helford River, with its waterside pubs and tree lined creeks and tributaries, provides some of the loveliest day sailing waters imaginable. The former market town of Helston is approximately eleven miles away and includes an extensive range of facilities including shops, schools, banks, pubs and restaurants, supermarkets and leisure facilities. Further a field is Falmouth harbour town, approximately 18 miles and Truro cathedral city 21 miles. Newquay Airport (approximately 28 miles) flies regularly to London.
