Boyton, Launceston

Forge House is a period residence believed to have been built in the mid-Victorian era and stands prominently in the centre of the village of Boyton.

The home has spacious light and airy accommodation, including a lounge which has a large window plus a large useful under stairs cupboard and feature period style fireplace with a woodburning stove inset. The lovely formal dining room has a feature, electric fire mounted on a slate hearth. The dual aspect kitchen is well equipped with plenty of work surface and a range of matching wall and base units, included in the sale is a double electric oven, electric hob with extractor over. The ground floor also offers a delightful UPVC double glazed conservatory which enjoys a splendid outlook over the attractive rear gardens. A useful side porch/ boiler room and WC conclude the ground floor.

On the first floor there are three double bedrooms. The master bedroom has a built-in double wardrobe, bedroom two, like bedroom one also overlooks the front elevation, enjoying far reaching views towards Dartmoor National Park. The third bedroom has a freestanding, modern shower cubicle and plenty of space for a double bed. There is a family bathroom/WC offering a white matching suite.

Forge House has many modern comforts such as UPVC double glazed windows and warmth is generated by oil fired central heating. The exterior is particularly attractive with the brick quoins and the boundaries are clearly marked by mature stone walling.

Externally, the front garden is walled with a range of shrubs and plants. The well enclosed rear garden is particularly attractive with established mature planting along with an attractive paved path and patio area. It backs onto the graveyard of the neighbouring church. The property has a good size detached single garage, a greenhouse measuring 6’ x 5’ (1.83m x 1.52m) and a concrete driveway which is served by double opening five bar gates.

All in all, we believe Forge House will be suitable for a variety of purchasers and an internal viewing is highly recommended.
