The property occupies a generous plot believed to be in the region of just over three acres and being divided into different sections, comprising of formal gardens, meadow, orchard, vegetable garden, large paddock and a detached piece of land just opposite the property.
Internally the accommodation is very well presented ideal for a large family to spread out and enjoy the generous proportioned rooms which include a custom-built farm house style kitchen, three reception rooms and five bedrooms.
As you would expect from a property circa 1850 there are a number of characteristic features with quarry tiled floors, wood burners and window shutters to mention just a few.
Approached via a farmhouse style gate, a driveway leads to hard stand parking with additional spaces alongside and the vendors have advised us that planning was granted for the erection of a garage. The formal fenced and child safe gardens are an absolute delight boasting many shrubs and fauna as well as an extensive paved patio ideal for entertaining on those long summer days with meandering pathways, taking you on a wooded pathway which leads to a large orchard with adjoining meadow, vegetable garden, paddock with outbuildings including a stable block.
Being within the Cornish mining world heritage site, this is a wonderful opportunity to own a beautiful country property enjoying a great deal of privacy and seclusion.
