Situate in a quiet area, Medrose is toward the outskirts of the village but still within reasonable walking distance of the village amenities, shops, post office, churches, pub, primary school, bus stop, garage/filling station, etc.

The House comprises:
GROUND FLOOR
Side Entrance half-glazed door into
SMALL HALL (6’3”x4’2”), with doors to wash-room, living room and entrance to kitchen.
KITCHEN (6’7”x9’3”). Windows to side and rear. Single drainer stainless steel sink, plumbing for washing machine, electric cooker point.
WASH-ROOM (6’x3’6”). Window to side. Lavatory and wash-hand basin.
LIVING ROOM (11’4”x 8’minimum to 13’6”maximum). Window to rear. Open fireplace with back boiler supplying hot water. Airing cupboard with hot water tank, which has a back-up immersion heater. (The back-boiler and tank insulation are efficient, and I have only needed to use the immersion heater when the fire has not been lit at all for many days.)
From the living room there are doors to the small hall and to the main hall, and a walk-in cupboard with window to the side, and also a 5’ wide opening to the front room. This archway is hung with curtains, which, when they are open make a “through–lounge” of the two rooms together.
FRONT ROOM (11’6”x10’) Entered only through the opening from the living room. Window to front. Open fireplace.
MAIN HALL (11’6”). Window to side. Half glazed front door at one end, passage to door to living room at the other. Stairs with cupboard under rising to first floor.

FIRST FLOOR
Small LANDING with window to side. Doors to 3 rooms and bathroom.
ROOM1 (Currently used as double bedroom) (12’7”x9’5”) window to rear.
ROOM2 (Currently used as spare bedroom) (10’5”x9’2”minimum to10’4”maximum). Window to front. Fitted cupboard in chimney alcove. Loft hatch.
ROOM3 (Currently used as Office) (9’2”x6’9”). Window to rear.
BATHROOM. With white bath, sink and lavatory. Electric shower over bath. Window to front. Second loft hatch

LOFT SPACE. The loft is insulated with glass-fibre matting and partially boarded to give useful storage space. There is a switched twin power point within easy reach of the room2 loft hatch, so you can turn on the lights before you go up there. The loft is unobstructed and would convert fairly easily into extra living space.

OUTSIDE
The house is encircled by a low wall, enclosing a small front garden/parking space for one vehicle, a pathway running the length of the house side where an outside tap is located, and around the back to a small alcove outside the living room window. To the side of the wall there is a right of way over a very wide private track giving vehicular access to the front, and pedestrian access to the side door of the house.

SERVICES ETC.
Water from South West Water is by metered supply.
Electricity presently from EDF, on general tariff. Meter and fuse box in kitchen.
Council tax Band ‘B’.
Telephone, currently BT.
Mobile telephone reception on the Orange network is good in this area.
There is no mains gas in this area.
I have no television receiving equipment (aerials, dishes, masts etc.) nor wiring for same, but I understand from neighbours that Television reception hereabouts is good.
General household rubbish is collected by the council weekly and recyclable waste is collected fortnightly on Fridays.

THE AREA
Delabole has 2 general grocers, a post office, a bakery, a filling station and 2 motor servicing businesses, a fish and chip shop (excellent!) a church and a Methodist Chapel, and a primary school. There are some other retail businesses, and an excellent builder’s merchants.
Delabole is served by 2 G.P. practices, who hold branch surgeries in the village.
Delabole is famous for its ancient slate quarry; the biggest man made hole in Europe. The quarry is working, but there is a visitor centre there and a public footpath circles the workings. It is a curiously spectacular sight.
The fabulous North Cornwall coast is less than 2 miles as the crow flies, somewhat further by road or footpath. The nearest beaches accessed by road are Trebarwith Strand to the north and Port Gaverne to the south. And it is only a few minutes further to Tintagel, Boscastle, Port Isaac, and a little more for Polzeath.
The nearest town is Camelford. Wadebridge is 10 miles and Bodmin about 15. in these towns may be found full ranges of shopping facilities, and secondary schools.

There is also the OPTION TO BUT SOME OR ALL OF THE ADJOINING LAND AND OUTBUILDINGS including a substantial 2 room outbuilding, (this would adapt into a further dwelling subject to appropriate planning consent) single garage, 2 block and stone sheds. There is plenty of further parking space around the grounds. The property is arranged as follows:

SINGLE GARAGE. Up-and-over door. Clear UPVC corrugated roof. No services.
The garage is located in the yard behind the house and is accessed by a shared vehicular right of way over the private track to Medrose Street. The garage is not available for sale on its own.
Price for House and garage together £210,000.


The remainder of the property is arranged in 3 areas. Extending from Medrose Street along the side of the house plot is the
TRACK/SIDE YARD (approx) 46’ long , by 28’ wide tapering to 17’6” where the coal shed sticks out. This lets into the
“HOUSE YARD" (41’ by 33’ approx.) which runs behind the house and from which are accessed:
SINGLE GARAGE (as above)

COAL SHED (6’6”x6’4” internal). Small window. No services.
TOOL SHED (11’8”x7’9”) window to front. Electricity, but no water. This shed could be extended to the front to make it long enough to provide another garage.

Between the tool shed and the garage a
DRIVEWAY (approx. 18’ by 12’)connects through a 11’ single gate into
“CHEQUERS YARD”(39’ by 7’ approx.)(the outbuilding located here is known as “Chequers”)

“CHEQUERS” is located at the far end of the property. A pathway runs all round the building which fronts onto the concrete yard. There is an outside tap in “Chequers Yard”.
ROOM 1 (20’4”x9’). Currently used as a workshop. Main entrance door from yard. Windows to front and rear. Door to room2. Electricity meter and mcb consumer unit.
ROOM 2 (20’6”x19’). Currently used for garaging space and storage, and extra work space from workshop. Up-and-over garage type door from yard. Windows to front and side, vent to rear. Single drainer stainless steel sink. Electric water heater over. (Note: the water supply to “Chequers” is on a separate metered supply of its own. The meter is near the middle of the track where it meets Medrose Street.)

Rough sketch plans exist for developing “Chequers” into a 2bedroomed dormer bungalow. There are other possibilities for a dwelling on this plot, most of which would require planning consent.

Price for all house and adjoining land and outbuildings £325,000
