This former School, built during the heart of the Victorian era, stands proudly within the charming village of Bolventor, just moments from the renowned Jamaica Inn. Converted over 20 years ago, the property has been thoughtfully transformed into a distinctive and characterful home, now offering four en-suite bedrooms, along with excellent potential for the rear section to form a fully self-contained annexe.

The generous accommodation is defined by its impressive proportions and abundance of natural light. A particularly striking feature is the superb lounge, where an impressive staircase rises to an elegant galleried landing above. The triple aspect design creates a wonderfully bright and inviting space, centred around an imposing stone fireplace with inset multi fuel burner set on a tiled hearth. Original features such as wood flooring and tall Victorian windows provide a charming nod to the building’s past, while modern touches including vertical radiators and recessed lighting ensure comfort and style. From here, there is access to a study and the former main entrance. The kitchen/dining room is equally impressive and forms the true heart of the home, offering a spacious and sociable environment ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. A split level ceiling with traditional and roof windows floods the space with light, while the well appointed kitchen includes a range of matching wall and base units, ample work surfaces, and a central island with breakfast bar and Smeg electric hob. Integrated appliances include two Neff slide and hide ovens and a microwave grill, along with a dishwasher and American style fridge freezer. A separate utility room provides additional storage and houses the oil fired central heating system, with zoned heating and underfloor heating to the kitchen and lounge for added comfort. A ground floor bedroom, accessed via a short set of steps, offers excellent flexibility and is ideal for use as an annexe, benefitting from its own entrance and en-suite bathroom. The ground floor also includes a welcoming entrance hall and a convenient cloakroom.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect outlook across the garden and surrounding countryside, along with its own en-suite bathroom. Two further bedrooms also benefit from en-suite facilities, creating well balanced and comfortable accommodation throughout.

Externally, the property continues to impress, with a private and enclosed rear garden that is perfect for families or those with pets. A generous patio area provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining and relaxation, complemented by a high quality summer house offering a peaceful retreat. Well stocked borders bring colour and interest throughout the seasons, while a sweeping driveway provides ample parking and turning space. A useful stone outbuilding offers additional storage, and the surrounding countryside views provide a wonderful sense of space and tranquillity, completing the appeal of this truly unique home.

Bolventor village is positioned in the heart of Bodmin Moor betwixt the Cornish towns of Launceston and Bodmin, both of which have a wide variety of shopping, commercial, educational and recreational facilities. Made famous by the Daphne Du Maurier Jamaica Inn (which is just a stone's throw away from the property), the village is one of the highest in the county yet is easily accessible via the A30 dual carriageway. A haven for dog walkers, hikers and fisherman there are various country pursuits available direct from the front door of the property which is envious to many.
