Coming to the market for the first time in over 30 years, this much-loved family home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful country cottage set in a truly idyllic rural location.
Brimming with original features and homely warmth, the cottage has been cherished for decades and is now ready to begin its next chapter. The current vendor has advised that all external walls have been fully insulated, enhancing comfort and energy efficiency throughout the seasons.
At the heart of the home lies the inviting kitchen, fitted with base-level units and centred around an oil-fired Aga that not only adds rustic charm but also serves as a cosy heat source during the colder months. French doors open directly onto the garden—perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or tending to a kitchen garden.
The living room exudes character, with a striking stone fireplace and a feature stove creating a cosy focal point. Natural light pours in through the front-facing windows and rear patio doors, which open out to the garden and seamlessly connect the indoor and outdoor spaces.
Upstairs, the cottage offers two spacious double bedrooms and a generously sized single, each featuring charming exposed beams that reflect the home’s rich history. The single bedroom also benefits from a walk-in cupboard, ideal for use as a wardrobe or a compact study nook. A modern shower room is fitted with an enclosed shower, WC, and basin, while additional storage is available on the landing within the eaves.
Externally, the property enjoys a private driveway, a carport, and a handy storage cupboard with power—ideal for tools or outdoor gear. A detached double garage offers further storage or workshop space, with one half benefitting from a gardener’s WC and sink.
The garden is a true highlight: Generous, well-established, and beautifully planted with mature shrubs and flower beds. It enjoys far-reaching views over the surrounding countryside and includes a rear gate opening onto a small, securely fenced paddock—perfect for those with equestrian or smallholding interests.
There is an option to rent a three acre field within walking distance of the property.
Townlake is a peaceful hamlet located just outside the highly sought-after village of Horsebridge, nestled along the picturesque banks of the River Tamar. Horsebridge is known for its charm and community spirit, offering a mix of attractive properties and the well-regarded local pub, The Royal Inn, which is popular with residents and visitors alike. Conveniently positioned almost equidistant between the bustling market towns of Tavistock and Callington, the area enjoys easy access to a wide range of shops, amenities, and services. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, the location is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, with an abundance of scenic footpaths perfect for walking, cycling, and exploring the unspoilt landscape.
