Two bed terraced house to rent in St. Thomas Hill, Launceston, PL15

Wanted - Quirky Tenants To Make This Eccentric Cottage Their Slightly Odd Home. This modernised 19th century terrace combines the best of old and new but there isn’t a square room in sight. Even the gorgeous multi-level back garden is a funny shape!

This superb two bedroom cottage was built in a bygone era where they adapted the design to fit the local landscape.

That’s resulted in an unconventional layout where the property is much wider at the front than it is the back! It’s unorthodox but it just works!

The cottage has been decorated in a cool grey modern colourscheme that actually brings out the best of the period features. There’s no shortage of exposed beams, traditional doors and random bits of woodwork jutting out here and there.

The stylish brand new kitchen is certainly from the 21st century - as is the combi boiler you’ll see fitted to one wall. Unlike many period properties in this part of town, you do get the benefit of gas central heating. Toasty.

You can head out of the stable-style split back door to the lovely multi-level, low maintenance back garden.

It’s a fabulous place to sit out and enjoy the sun, landscaped to make the most of the rooftop views.

The first floor has a double bedroom and a single bedroom that would be ideal as a home office or study.

The bathroom is another room which combines old and new to good effect. Despite being at the rear of the property (therefore the smallest part of the house) there’s room for both a bath and a shower cubicle.

It’s a 10-15 minute walk to the town centre where you’ll find a range of local independent pubs, shops and cafés, a Tesco superstore and M&S.

Be sure to seek out somewhere for a tasty treat as you’ll have burned off a fair few calories - it’s a bit of an uphill trek!

If you fancy hitting the beach it’s only half an hour’s drive to Bude. If you need to head further afield you can head down the A30 - Truro is around an hour to the west and Exeter a similar drive to the east.

Chances are if you like straightforward modern homes this won’t be for you. But if you’re prepared to embrace the unconventional you may have found your perfect new home.

You’ll need to get in quick to secure it. Contact us now to arrange a viewing.
