SITUATION
Cornwall is famed for its spectacular coastline which frames an historic landscape. The magnificent Bodmin Moor, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, splits the north and south coasts and has some of the most exhilarating views in the county, it is a haven for walkers and nature lovers alike. Hosting the country's highest peaks, Brown Willy and Rough Tor, the moor is also home to a number of pretty villages and two large lakes which provide water sports and fishing. Cartuther Barton is situated in an easily accessible location just 1 mile south east of Liskeard, a bustling market town which boasts an interesting range of independent retailers and supermarkets. Waitrose lies within approximately 11 miles on the outskirts of Saltash. The nearest coastal town is Looe, an historic fishing port and tourist destination centred around its delightful harbour and sandy beaches. Slightly further afield are a plethora of fishing villages including Polperro, Polruan and Fowey together with sandy beaches and cliff-top walks on the South West Coast Path. Keen golfers can visit a number of local clubs including St. Mellion, a challenging course designed by Jack Nicklaus. The central location also allows ready access to the spectacular north coast, with its renowned surfing beaches, whilst the splendour of Dartmoor is also within driving distance. The city of Plymouth lies within commuting distance and offers a fantastic range of shopping and other facilities together with the cross channel ferry port and a mainline railway station linking directly to London Paddington.

INTRODUCTION
Fortescue Hitchens and Samuel Drew gives an insight to the property's early history:- The manor of Cartuther, on which formerly stood a chapel dedicated to St Nicholas is described by Leland as a goodly lordship and old manor-place of a hundred pounds by the year'. This, prior to Leland's days, belonged to the family of Heling or Eling who resided here; and who from this residence, we suppose to have taken the name of Cartuther. An heiress or co-heiress of this family of which the male branches became extinct about the year 1400, brought this property to the Beckets; of which Cartuther became the habitation. At a subsequent period, this estate passed to the Morsheads, who for some time resided here. But they subsequently sold to Samuel Kekwich of Peamore near Exeter who was responsible for erecting the bakehouse and piggery at the rear.' Today, Cartuther Barton provides an elegant family home with well proportioned light filled rooms full of interesting architectural features. The house currently provides spacious 4 bedroom accommodation and an adjoining self contained one bedroom annexe cottage and has further potential to extend the living space into the second floor attic rooms currently used for storage. At the rear of the farmhouse are a wonderful range of traditional outbuildings currently providing excellent domestic offices and storage but could be utilised for a range of uses. A particular feature of the farm is the highly attractive range of traditional stone buildings set around a courtyard to the north of the house. Planning consent has been granted to convert this range of buildings to three dwellings. In addition, useful modern general purpose and livestock buildings serve the 179 acres of land comprising mainly productive arable and pastureland together with areas of woodland and ponds offering high amenity and sporting potential at the southern end of the farm.
