SITUATION
Cambridge House is situated away from the main centre of Torpoint within a quiet residential area.

Torpoint could be described as the gateway to Cornwall. It is situated on a peninsula in East Cornwall, across the River Tamar from Plymouth. A ferry connects Cornwall with Devon across the river these days, but there were always small boats ferrying people and goods across from Cornwall to England. The first official ferry service was started as far back as 1791, allowed by Act of Parliament. In 1832, the first chain ferry was started and three operate today. The ferry is still free for foot passengers and there is a small charge for cars traveling in the Plymouth direction. Torpoint only became a town in the early nineteenth century. Before this, the nearby village of Antony was the main centre of habitation in the area. However, there had always been families living beside the river and there is some mention of this area in the Domesday Book. Just outside Torpoint is the national Trust property of Antony House and also Mount Edgecombe House and Country Park.

THE PROPERTY

The interior of the house is beautifully decorated throughout in a contemporary style using light neutral colors and soft furnishings. The business benefits from five well appointed letting rooms and a three bedroom private apartment.
