Full Details for 7 Bedroom Detached for sale in Launceston, PL15 :

Named after the Duke of Northumberland who acquired the Werrington Estate in 1775, the property sits beside Launceston’s oldest church dedicated in 1259 and has lovely views southwards to the old town of Launceston including the Castle which the Duke of Northumberland was responsible for landscaping and opening to the public in the early 19th
Century.  

Northumberland House is the dominant property of St. Stephens Green, beautifully constructed of solid stone walls beneath pitch roof with natural slate cladding.   The property has been in the same family for three generations and provides spacious accommodation which can be moved into with the minimum of disturbance being well appointed, well maintained and well decorated.    
  
The property has the benefit of mains gas central heating and gas fired Rayburn.

Northumberland House has a commanding presence overlooking St. Stephens ancient church and green.     Nearby is the town’s superb 18 hole hilltop golf course, the much acclaimed independent St. Josephs School and St. Stephens primary school.   

Within 1/2 a mile of the property are the facilities of the Newport area of the town including food supermarket, popular public house, convenience store and petrol filling station / shop. This is a pretty riverside area of the town with ancient pack horse bridge, Kensey Vale bowling club and the town’s small gauge steam railway.   Full social, commercial and shopping facilities are available in Launceston town centre which is approximately 1 mile.

Launceston, midway between north and south coasts, enjoys a better balance of travel distance to all parts of the two counties than any other centre.  East of Launceston the City of Exeter (some 42 miles) provides intercity rail link, international airport and M5 motorway link.  To the south of Launceston the city of Plymouth (28 miles) provides continental ferry port and intercity rail link. 

In all directions from the property there is unspoilt countryside of outstanding natural beauty.  To the north the rugged North Cornish coast famed for popular family surfing beaches.  To the west the open spaces of Bodmin Moor ideal for walking and riding.  To the east is Dartmoor National Park and to the south the hidden treasures of the Tamar Valley steeped in 17th / 18th century mining history.
