Latchley, Gunnislake

Far-reaching countryside views, light-filled interiors and thoughtfully landscaped gardens give Beech House an inviting sense of space. Set in the Tamar Valley village of Latchley, this recently refurbished detached home combines a peaceful setting with accommodation that can adapt as life changes.

Four bedrooms occupy the first floor, while two additional reception rooms downstairs offer space to work from home, create a separate snug or accommodate visiting guests. A spacious sitting room and dual-aspect kitchen/dining room provide the heart of the home, with the gardens offering inviting places to dine, entertain and enjoy the outlook.

Recent improvements include refurbishment throughout, landscaping and the rebuilding of external boundary walling. Offered with no onward chain, Beech House is ready for its next chapter.

Accommodation

A welcoming entrance hall leads into the sitting room, where countryside views and a fireplace with a slate hearth, stone surround and oak mantel create an appealing setting for relaxed evenings.

The dual-aspect kitchen/dining room is a sociable space for everyday meals and entertaining. Integrated appliances include a double oven, induction hob, extractor, Bosch fridge freezer, Neff dishwasher and wine cooler. An adjoining utility room provides further storage and plumbing for a washing machine.

Two further ground-floor rooms bring valuable flexibility to the layout. Whether used as a home office, playroom, snug or occasional guest bedroom, they allow different activities to have their own space. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys countryside views, built-in wardrobe storage and an en-suite shower room. Three further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, with built-in storage in bedrooms two and four and an airing cupboard on the landing.

Gardens & Grounds

The landscaped gardens wrap around the house, combining lawns, established beech hedging and attractive stone walling with terraces for outdoor living.

A sunken patio provides a distinctive setting for summer lunches and evening drinks, while a further terrace to the rear offers another place to sit and unwind. The elevated position brings open countryside views into everyday life, whether enjoying a morning coffee or spending an afternoon in the garden.

A driveway provides parking for two to three vehicles.

Location & Lifestyle

Latchley lies on the Cornish side of the Devon–Cornwall border, within the Tamar Valley National Landscape. The surrounding countryside, wooded valleys and riverside scenery offer plenty of opportunity for walking, exploring and enjoying a quieter pace of life.

Gunnislake provides local amenities and a rail connection to Plymouth, while the market town of Tavistock offers independent shops, cafés, restaurants and a wider range of everyday facilities. Dartmoor and the South East Cornwall coast provide further possibilities for days out.

Beech House will particularly appeal to buyers seeking a countryside home with room for family life, guests and home working, without taking on a refurbishment project.
