Location ID: #999-21133
A 12th Century country house set within the ruins of an ancient monastery. Modernised to a certain extent over the centuries, but the main house still has very many old period features, such as original Tudor panelling and giant open fireplaces, both inside and out. It has a recently converted barn to one side, that could still double as a period building with minor set dressing. The property benefits from uninterrupted views down to the tidal part of the river Tamar. The view has barely any indication of modern life. Around the house, there are ornamental gardens, a pond and many acres of fields. It also benefits from a forested area with a brook. At the point where the fields meet the river, the estate includes its own beach with access to the Tamar River.
