The village of Trewidland (1 mile) has a primary school, while shopping can be done at Liskeard (4 miles) which also has direct trains to London Paddington. The Maritime City of Plymouth (18.5 miles) provides all other amenities and has an airport with a growing number of national and international flights. Description Built four-square of stone and brick in an elevated position under a slate roof with large sash windows, Trewen is an excellent example of a Victorian villa, while the cottage and garden office are older and more rustic but none the less charming, and the double garage is a new addition in the same style. The whole sits in very attractive gardens of just less than an acre and offers an outstanding combination of a grand (but manageable) country house, secondary accommodation, (ideal either for a relative or for generating an additional income), and the perfect opportunity to work seriously from home while, at the same time, enjoying all the comforts and privileges of a country house existence.
