Set on circa 5.5 acres in an elevated, private rural location, Hornbrook House is a substantial four-bedroom detached home that balances traditional character with modern energy-efficient systems. The house offers spacious reception spaces, a 35ft kitchen/family room with sunroom, and a triple-aspect sitting room that opens to a sheltered terrace — all benefitting from far-reaching views over Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor.
Practical modern features include underfloor heating throughout, a ground source heat pump and solar thermal panels for hot water, which together reduce reliance on fossil fuels. The property also includes a detached garage, extensive off-road parking, a large block-built barn suitable for equestrian or agricultural use, a private water supply with a pump room, formal gardens, orchard and productive vegetable/soft-fruit areas.
The house will particularly suit a family or buyer seeking a spacious country home with agricultural or smallholding potential and excellent privacy. It is easily accessible by road, a short drive to Lifton and within convenient reach of Launceston, Tavistock and the A30. Note practical constraints: the location is remote (hamlet/isolated dwelling) with very slow broadband, average mobile signal and council tax above average. There is no flooding risk recorded.
Overall this is a roomy, versatile rural residence with strong energy credentials and significant outbuildings and land — ideal for buyers who value seclusion, panoramic countryside and scope for equestrian or hobby farming activities.
