Abbots Hendra Barns, St. Clether, Launceston, Cornwall, PL15

The Roundhouse Barn is a beautifully restored Grade II Listed barn, constructed of traditional stone beneath a slate roof. Thoughtfully converted to an exceptional standard in 2020 and subsequently enhanced by the current owners, the property showcases exposed stonework, vaulted beamed ceilings, traditional timber lintels, and a striking blend of wood, slate, and stone flooring.

Designed with a highly practical reversed layout, the principal living accommodation is positioned on the upper floor to maximise natural light and far reaching views, with a seamless connection to the landscaped gardens. This impressive space, featuring floor to ceiling glazing, forms the heart of the home and comprises a light filled open plan kitchen and dining area, with a utility area to the rear.

The kitchen is well appointed with matching units, a Siemens double oven, and a central island/breakfast bar incorporating a Neff induction hob. The adjoining living room enjoys high ceilings and a wonderful sense of space and openness, with attractive views across the courtyard and surrounding countryside.

A fourth bedroom/study, currently arranged as a home office, and a cloakroom complete the upper floor. A mezzanine level with wood flooring and lighting provides versatile additional space.

An open tread solid oak staircase with chrome and wire balustrading leads to the lower ground floor, where three bedrooms are arranged around a central hallway. Much of this level is finished with natural oak flooring. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, while a family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms open directly onto the courtyard.

Additional features include oil fired central heating, aluminium framed double glazed windows with timber internal finishes, and remote controlled electric blinds fitted throughout. There is fibre broadband connected to the premises.

The gardens to the front and side have been landscaped to create an attractive series of split level terraces, planted with shrubs, perennials, and well stocked beds retained by railway sleepers. A large paved terrace provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining and enjoying the afternoon sunshine. Within the communal grounds, the partly enclosed carport incorporates a substantial secure storage area.

History
The history of Abbots Hendra can be traced back more than 700 years. Recorded as early as 1302, its name is derived from the Cornish word Hendra, meaning “winter farmstead” or “home farm”. In medieval times, the property was held by the Abbot of Cleve and formed part of the Manor of Treglasta.

The Roundhouse Barn is nestled in the very heart of the North Cornish Countryside with good access to the A39 and A30. Amenities such as a general store/sub Post Office, County Primary School, Secondary School, Public Houses, and take away restaurants will be found at the town of Camelford approximately 8 miles from the property. The ancient former market town of Launceston lies approximately 9 miles to the east and has a range of shopping, schooling, commercial and recreational facilities.

Excellent transport links can be found in the Cathedral City of Exeter by road, rail and air (Exeter International Airport) which is about 52 miles distant. The Continental Ferryport and City of Plymouth is approximately 35 miles distant and has regular cross channel services to France and Spain.

Popular tourist areas of Port Isaac, Boscastle and Crackington Haven are within easy striking distance along with the coastal resorts of Bude and Widemouth Bay, well known for their excellent surf and sandy beaches. The rugged beauty of Bodmin moor with its myriad of wildlife, native ponies, walking and hiking opportunities is also within
