From the moment you enter the driveway Benclivedan feels pleasantly tucked away, with a lawned frontage framing the approach and setting a calm tone before stepping through the front door. A porch opens into a generously proportioned entrance hall where there is useful storage and a dedicated home office area, immediately giving a sense of how well the house caters for modern day living.

The main reception rooms sit naturally off the hall. The lounge is a warm and inviting space with a huge stone fireplace and log burner as its focal point, enhanced by an exposed timber beam and excellent room for comfortable seating. Leading on, the dining area brings a real feeling of volume thanks to a striking vaulted lightwell that draws daylight deep into the room. With Karndean flooring and bi fold doors opening straight onto the terrace, it is easy to imagine family meals here as well as relaxed entertaining.

The kitchen is a real centrepiece and has been recently installed, finished with bespoke Corian worktops and an integrated double sink with chrome mixer tap. Appliances include a Smeg self cleaning double oven, AEG ceramic hob and dishwasher, refrigerator, wine cooler and a waste disposal unit. A matching utility and laundry room adds further fitted storage, plumbing and an external door, keeping day to day tasks neatly out of sight.

The ground floor layout is completed by two double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has built in wardrobes and an en suite shower room. The second bedroom sits close to a luxurious bathroom with freestanding oval bath, vanity unit and contemporary tiling, and this bathroom can also be used as an en suite when needed.

Upstairs, a timber staircase rises to a bright first floor landing that is currently used as an additional entertaining space. Vaulted ceilings with exposed timbers and Velux skylights create a wonderful sense of height and light, with wide reaching views across Rough Tor. Three further double bedrooms are arranged on this level, including one with an ensuite shower room, while a well appointed family shower room serves the remaining rooms.

The rear of the house opens onto a broad sandstone paved terrace that runs the full width of the property, a wonderful setting for outdoor dining while enjoying views across the gardens. From the terrace, the grounds gently unfold into wide lawns bordered by mature shrubs, plants and specimen trees, providing both privacy and colour throughout the seasons.

Within the grounds there is a workshop with power and light, together with a colourful summerhouse offering an ideal retreat for hobbies or quiet relaxation. The land then extends into a traditional paddock, approached through a charming Lychgate that enhances the property's quintessential country character. A wooded copse provides natural shade and seclusion, while additional enclosed areas offer flexibility of use, one of which is currently arranged for livestock.

Complementing the outdoor space is a detached double garage, with stairs rising to a generous first-floor area that provides excellent additional storage, along with a further single garage, offering practical solutions for vehicles, equipment or workshop use.

In all, the gardens, grounds, paddock and copse extend to approximately 0.8 acres, creating a versatile outdoor environment that feels both practical and special. The layout provides a pleasing sense of progression, with open lawns closest to the house and more rural spaces beyond — ideal for those wishing to grow produce, keep animals or simply enjoy a more natural setting.
The gardens provide a number of sheltered corners, perfect for sitting out and appreciating the tranquillity of the surroundings.

Sellers Insight:

Since we bought Benclivedan in 2014, it has certainly lived up to the dreams we had for it. Poised between the mighty Atlantic Ocean at the stunning sandy Trebarwith Strand beach and the majestic Bodmin Moor, we are enabled to enjoy the range of nature's bounty within a few minutes.

Local facilities in Camelford are excellent for everyday needs and we are serviced by a friendly Doctor's surgery in the picturesque village of Boscastle only 10 minutes away. There is a multitude of cafes and restaurants nearby; whether your hankering is for a hearty home made snack at a local farm shop or a more formal meal in a top quality hotel, there is plenty of choice.

To the North South and West we look out on open countryside whilst our neighbours, although few, are charming and all situated to the East. It is wonderful to be surrounded by the majestic North Cornwall scenery. When the summer visitors arrive the whole area takes on a vibrant atmosphere. Varying with the seasons, we get to enjoy the best of both worlds.

Sadly, our declining health requires that we move to Kent to be nearer our Son and our Grandchildren. We sincerely hope that you will enjoy living in our warm bright light house as much as we have.

Oh, by the way, don't worry about the name!   We didn't know how to pronounce it at first but it transpires that Ben and Clive and Dan were involved in the initial build. That's the way the story goes anyway.
