5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Launceston, Devon PL15

Nestled within a peaceful cluster of barns on the Cornwall/Devon border, South Barn combines rustic character with contemporary style. Originally converted in 2003 and further enhanced by the current owners, the property features exposed stonework, timber beams, slate details and vaulted ceilings throughout.

At the heart of the home is a bright, dual-aspect kitchen, redesigned as a sociable hub with a large island seating eight, a feature brick fireplace and modern integrated appliances. A utility/boot room with WC sits alongside. Living spaces include a cosy sitting room with wood-burning stove and French doors leading outside, plus a striking family Living Room with vaulted ceiling, bi-fold doors and a sunny south-facing outlook. Two further versatile rooms – currently a Dining Room and Hobbies room – offer scope for a home office, studio or annexe (subject to consents). The ground floor also includes a private guest suite with en-suite shower room.

Upstairs, the vaulted theme continues across four further bedrooms. The principal suite includes fitted wardrobes, a mezzanine storage area and an en-suite bathroom. A second en-suite bedroom provides comfort for guests, while two more doubles share a large family bathroom with separate shower. A flexible playroom or Office with some restricted head height provides further space.

The home is approached via a private lane to a gravel courtyard with ample parking, detached double garage, adjoining wood store and EV charging point. To the rear, the level gardens enjoy a southerly aspect with lawns, patios and countryside views reaching towards Launceston.

South Barn offers versatile accommodation, timeless character and a truly peaceful setting, making it ideal as a family home, countryside retreat or multi-generational living space.

South Barn sits in the beautiful Carey Valley, right on the Cornwall and Devon border. The setting is wonderfully peaceful, with rolling countryside, quiet lanes and meandering streams creating a sense of seclusion, yet without feeling cut off.

Everyday amenities and a welcoming community can be found in nearby villages, while the historic town of Launceston is just a short drive away, offering shops, schools and leisure facilities. To the north lies Tavistock, a thriving market town with a bustling pannier market, independent shops and access to the open moorland of Dartmoor.

The location also benefits from being close to the Tamar Valley, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and part of Cornwall and West Devon’s Mining Heritage site. It’s an area rich in walking routes, wildlife and heritage, perfect for those who enjoy the outdoors.

Despite the rural setting, excellent road links mean the A30 is within easy reach, connecting you swiftly to Cornwall’s coastline, Devon’s countryside and beyond.
