Unique development of properties

A three bedroom desirable property forming part of this beautifully restored building dating back to 1879.

There is a wealth of charm and character with a bespoke hand made kitchen with a quality of finish that continues throughout the property. There is a bright and spacious open plan living area overlooking the landscaped rear garden, a first floor bathroom, ground floor shower room and a utility area plus designated parking to the outside.

With a wealth of history and as the address suggests, the property forms part of the former Trevarrack Boarding School. After closing as a school it was converted to the locally well known Tyringham Arms popular for its carvery and evening entertainment. After being empty for several years the property has been sympathetically modernised by the seller to create this delightful home - just one of five properties within the conversion of the building.

There is an attention to detail with the exposed roof trusses and detailing peeping through the new ceilings. The seller has taken inspiration from the Barbara Hepworth Garden in Wakefield in the landscaping of the rear garden, all whilst keep an eye on the property's green credentials with air source heating and solar generated hot water.

Located off the St Ives Coach Road in a elevated position you turn into the private driveway and parking area here the property has two designated spaces. Steps lead you from the parking area to the courtyard and in turn to the properties entrance.

Situated in an elevated position this property is located within two miles of the A30 roundabout and approximately three miles from St Ives town centre. Popular Public Houses well known locally for their good fayre are the Coachman and the Balnoon Inn, both are within one mile from the property and the nearest supermarket is located in Carbis Bay.

The nearest beach is Carbis Bay, famous now following the historic G7 conference which also has the branch Railway line linking St Ives to St Erth and on beyond to London Paddington. The hugely popular town of St Ives is famous for its artists, galleries, picturesque harbour, sandy beaches and hidden coves and is often voted as one of the best ten places to live within the UK.
