Description

A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire an idyllic rural smallholding, occupying a glorious countryside setting with far-reaching views across rolling farmland towards the majestic backdrop of Dartmoor. Set within just under two acres, this detached two-bedroom bungalow offers an increasingly scarce chance to embrace a peaceful country lifestyle, whilst enjoying the convenience of a central position between the historic market town of Holsworthy and the ancient capital of Cornwall, Launceston.

Approached via a shared private lane from the parish road, the property enjoys an enviable sense of privacy and tranquillity. The accommodation is complemented by generous lawned gardens, extensive off-road parking, a substantial workshop, and a useful outdoor store. Beyond, a gently sloping pasture paddock provides excellent grazing, making the property perfectly suited to those with equestrian interests, livestock, or aspirations of creating a manageable smallholding.

Offering tremendous scope for sympathetic modernisation and, subject to the necessary consents, further extension, the bungalow presents purchasers with the opportunity to create a truly exceptional countryside home tailored to their own requirements. Properties of this nature, combining acreage, outstanding rural views, practical outbuildings and excellent accessibility to both Devon and Cornwall, rarely become available within this price range, making this an exceptional lifestyle opportunity.

EPC Rating: E. Council Tax Band: C.

Tucked away and approached via a shared private lane, yet conveniently close to the main Holsworthy–Launceston route, this property enjoys a tranquil rural setting near the welcoming village of St Giles on the Heath. The village provides a range of local amenities including a Post Office/General Stores, pub, primary school, village hall, and recreational spaces for all ages. Just 4 miles away, the historic town of Launceston—Cornwall’s ancient capital—offers an excellent selection of shops, schools, and services, along with access to the A30 for rapid connections to Okehampton, Exeter, and beyond. Approximately 9 miles to the north lies the bustling market town of Holsworthy, home to a Waitrose supermarket, sports hall, swimming pool, golf course, and library. For coastal pursuits, the popular seaside resort of Bude is around 18 miles away, famed for its sandy beaches and breathtaking Atlantic scenery. This location strikes the perfect balance between peaceful countryside living and convenient access to well-connected towns and lifestyle amenities.

Directions
From Holsworthy proceed on the A388 towards Launceston for just over 8 miles and look out for a turning on the left hand side to East Panson. Turn left along this Parish Road whereupon the entrance lane leading to property will be found within a short distance on the right hand. Proceed up the lane and Meadow Park will be found on the right hand side.
