This lovely old farmhouse, with its 17th Century origins, has been extended over the years to create a very comfortable and spacious family home rich in character and period features. It is oil fired centrally heated and double glazed. Approached over its own lane, shared by only 2 other properties comprising quality barn conversions.
Nicely set back from the Holsworthy/Launceston road, the property is approached over a private stone lane which serves only 2 other properties comprising quality barn conversions (maintenance shared between the 3 properties). The property nestles amidst rolling countryside with far reaching views and is literally just a few minutes drive from the village of Clawton with its local primary school Ofsted rated as Outstanding. A short drive away will be found the bustling market town of Holsworthy with its weekly Pannier Market, good range of national and local shops together with a Waitrose supermarket. There are a whole range of amenities within the town including a heated swimming pool, sports hall, bowling green, cricket club, 18 hole golf course etc. Bude on the North Cornish coast is some 12 miles. Okehampton, Dartmoor National Park and the market town of Bideford are some 20 miles distant, whilst Barnstaple, the Regional North Devon Centre is some 30 miles. Launceston, Cornwall's ancient capital, is some 12 miles distant. Holsworthy is in the heart of Ruby Country, named after the famous local Red Ruby cattle, and its excellent website is well worth a visit.
Directions
From Holsworthy proceed on the A388 Launceston road, passing through the village of Clawton, and after a further mile the entrance drive leading to Cholditch will be found on the right hand side with a Bond Oxborough Phillips 'For Sale' notice clearly displayed. Turn right here and Cholditch Farm will be found right at the end of the lane.
