A rare opportunity to create A wonderful home in A delightful location close to the
Historic riverside village of st germans
description
Lanjore Farm Cottage and East Glasdon are currently a pair of semi-detached cottages occupying a charming site near St. Germans. Included in the sale are two further substantial outbuildings with great potential as well as a generous garden area. A full redevelopment and refurbishment will be necessary to create a unique personal country home, an increasingly rare opportunity in Cornwall. The final creation depends upon the wishes of the new owners but there is scope for one large home or a smaller home with a secondary residence attached. Letting potential or use by extended family are possible outcomes.

The location
St Germans, an historic and charming village, home to the beautiful Port Eliot Estate, stands adjacent to the River Lynher in a Conservation Area, within the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There is a community shop/post office, a doctor’s surgery and a fine church. Educational facilities include a primary school (Ofsted rated "Good") and a Montessori Nursery. Finally, recreational facilities include a public house, a wine bar/restaurant and a sailing club with quay and long frontage to the River Lynher. There is a mainline railway station (Plymouth to London Paddington 3 hours).
The Port Eliot Estate has a magnificent Grade 1 Listed Priory and House with gardens and parkland created by the renowned landscape gardener Humphrey Repton. It opens for various public events throughout the year. A wide range of shopping, including a Waitrose, and educational and recreational facilities are available at Saltash. St Mellion International Golf Resort (13 miles) has unique 4-star facilities including an aa luxury hotel, leisure centre, Elemis Day Spa, tennis courts, a European Tour golf course, a brasserie and an award-winning restaurant.
Plymouth is also within easy reach. It has an historic waterfront with regular ferry services to France and Northern Spain. The wide expanses and beaches of Whitsand and Looe Bay are also within a short drive. International flights are available from Newquay (35 miles) and Exeter (57 miles). The well-known coastal town, Fowey, lies 22 miles to the west and the famous surfing beach of Polzeath is within about a one hour drive.

Gardens and grounds
The property is approached over a long private drive. The new owner of Lanjore Farm Cottage and east Glasdon has a full right of way which does include a contribution to the maintenance costs. The final approach is via a fully private and owned driveway leading to a very generous parking area easily accommodating several cars. The buildings are set around a courtyard including a traditional barn 30'4"' x 14'1" now roofless but formerly a two-storey building. There is an adjacent a lean-to measuring 11'1 x 8'7". A full return to a two-storey building would create a potential floor area of almost 1000 sq. Feet. Any change of use would of course be dependent on obtaining the relevant permissions. A further two storey stone building (on floorplan) is currently in use on the ground floor as the bathroom for East Glasdon Cottage.
A small paddock, a small area of natural broadleaf woodland and an area of uncultivated garden completes the property. These features present a wonderful opportunity for the creative gardener to landscape and shape a 21st century space. The environment is delightful and without any former development to inhibit ideas drawing inspiration from the natural surroundings. The whole extends to about 0.59 acre.
