This lovely character stone manor property is in a peaceful location in a quiet small hamlet along the back lanes of Peumerit Quintin. The property has a private gravel off road parking area to the side and access into lovely gardens that surround the main house and extend past the group of outbuildings that also belong to the property. The gardens are laid mainly to lawn with a good variety of mature shrubs and trees giving good screening and lots of privacy in a peaceful and tranquil setting.

 

The manor house has lots of original charm and character and has been sympathetically updated to retain its original features, including exposed beams that have been professionally treated, exposed stone walls with niches and recessed windows. There is a large stone fireplace in the lounge with fitted wood burner. The property has a spacious open plan ground floor lounge which leads through to the kitchen and dining/breakfast area and also carries the staircase to the first and second floors.

 

The kitchen has a range of fitted wall and base units and the tiled floor continues throughout the ground floor. On the first floor there is a family bathroom and two double bedrooms and on the second floor there are two additional bedrooms with a second bathroom.

 

To one side of the house there is a large detached stone building which has a new roof and recently laid ground floor with full insulation and offers a straightforward conversion project to provide a spacious home, guest annexe or gites. To the side of that is another stone barn currently used for storage which has a galvanised roof and could also be converted (subject to planning consent). Finally there is a third small stone outbuilding that was once used for animals and could also be converted into a workshop or studio. The gardens are particularly lovely with ample screening and lots of hidden areas including natural woodland. The property being in a hamlet does have neighbours but has lots of privacy. If you are looking for a 15/16th century manor property with lots of original charm and character then this property is well worth viewing and is sure to attract a lot of interest.
