This period home dates back to the nineteenth century and has a wealth of features throughout including many dual aspect rooms. Our client has lived in the house since the 1980s and many improvements have been made during this time. The internal accommodation includes a large triple aspect south facing entrance porch which was added in more recent years. It is a lovely light space that is often used to relax in. The reception space includes the dual aspect lounge which is a light room and has a fireplace with inset bottled gas fire. The formal dining room is also dual aspect and has a fireplace with a log burning stove inset and space for both a large table and sofa. The kitchen is equipped with a range of matching wood fronted wall and base units, included in the sale is an electric oven, hob and extractor. Completing the ground floor is the side porch and separate WC.
On the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom which has a white suite and a shower attachment located over the panelled bath.
Hillcrest Farm has the benefit of innovative ground source heating, PV solar panels and UPVC double glazing, this all helps minimise the running costs of the home.
The house has a semi-circular driveway with a feature well. There is ample parking and at the side of the house a detached tandem double garage which has power, light and storage above with a motorised roller door. A number of further buildings are found including a large wooden framed workshop which has power and double entrance doors. The workshop would accommodate several cars within and therefore would be perfect for those who like to collect such items. In addition is a block-built store and wooden garden shed.
One of the main features of Hillcrest farm is the indoor swimming pool which is contained in a separate purpose built light and airy building. The filtered pool is heated via the ground source heating and is a continuous depth throughout. The building could be modified if so required to be able to accommodate those with hobbies or potentially be changed into a large office or games room.
The gardens amount to about 0.21 of an acre and are mainly lawned and have an agricultural access. For the keen gardener there is a greenhouse and space to grow fine produce. Many shrubs and bushes feature in the garden which presents a good opportunity for a purchaser to develop and landscape to their own taste. With the lack of an immediate neighbour they are private and in many areas the best of the views across to the surrounding countryside can be enjoyed. The area is a rich haven for a variety of wildlife and birds.
The little hamlet of Maxworthy is situated in the parish of North Petherwin approximately 9 miles equidistant between the North Cornish Coastline and the town of Launceston. Launceston features a wide range of educational, recreational and commercial facilities and lies on the A30 leading to West Cornwall, Newquay and its international airport in one direction and Exeter, its international airport and the M5 in the other. Within approximately three miles there is a shop at Week St. Mary, general stores and primary school are located in the neighbouring village of Whitstone and at Wainhouse Corner there is a general store/sub post office, garage filling station and public house.
