House For Sale £250,000
Description Occupying a large plot extending to approximately ¼ of an acre this detached 1930's bungalow with double fronted bay windows overlooks its own south facing gardens and views of the Castle. The property is in need of modernisation and updating, offering scope to create a superb residence in this quiet residential road on the fringes of Launceston. The property is of traditional construction under a tiled roof and boasts potential to be extended or redeveloped subject to the necessary consents. Enjoying this south facing position, the gardens are in need of landscaping, being very overgrown at present. The property is approached through private timber entrance gates leading onto a tarmac driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles. Ridgegrove Lane is a popular quiet road on the fringes of Launceston.
Location Launceston is a historic market town situated in North Cornwall right on the Cornwall/Devon border offering good access to the Cornish coast and Bodmin Moor. The town is famous for the castle which dates back to medieval times and dominates the landscape sitting proudly at the highest point.
Launceston benefits from facilities including several supermarkets, schools and well-regarded local butchers, and bakers. Launceston also plays host to the Launceston Butter Market which is held on the 1st Saturday of every month from March to December in the town square. The market is an excellent place to browse the stalls and purchase local produce, gifts and cards.
