An immaculately presented south-facing detached home set in around 6 acres with spectacular views over the Tamar Valley
Occupying an elevated, south-facing position above the River Tamar, Lamerhooe Lodge is a former fishing lodge which benefits from spectacular far reaching views over the Tamar Valley.
Offering generous and versatile reverse level accommodation over two floors, all of the principal rooms benefit from large windows creating an abundance of light and maximising the views and stepping into the spacious and welcoming entrance hall really sets the tone for what is to come. The well-equipped kitchen / breakfast room is integrated with a range of appliances including a double oven and a gas hob. There is also a utility room / boot room with access to the integral garage and a walk-in pantry off the kitchen. The dual aspect dining room is great for entertaining whilst the drawing room really provides the wow factor. Generously proportioned, with a wood burning stove and glazed doors to the balcony, it is the perfect place to take in the views or to have a sundowner on the balcony. Beyond the living accommodation there are two large, dual aspect double bedrooms, family bathroom and a cloakroom on the ground floor.
The lower ground floor continues the spacious and light theme and offers a further en suite double bedroom with glazed doors to the terrace, an additional double bedroom, a study and a family bathroom which can also be accessed from the bedroom. There is a second sitting room with French doors onto the terrace as well as a family room which incorporates a kitchen area meaning that the lower ground floor could be self contained. Accessed from the family room is the swimming pool which is fully enclosed with sliding doors to the garden.
Gardens and Grounds
Outside, Lamerhooe Lodge continues to delight and the formal gardens are simply exquisite. Approached via a gated driveway, there is ample parking as well as an integral double garage. To the rear, there is a full width terrace which is accessed from either the garden or the lower ground floor rooms which has a covered area which is the perfect spot for alfresco dining under the wisteria. Steps lead down onto a lovely, flat lawned area and into the parklike grounds. Carefully landscaped and planted throughout the gardens are largely laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs and seating areas dotted around to take in the wonderful views. The pond is a haven for wildlife while the kitchen garden complete with greenhouse is well stocked. Beyond the formal gardens is a stable block and store as well as a sloping paddock which extends to just over 4 acres.
