SITUATION The property is ideally situated for easy access to Falmouth, renowned for its sailing, beautiful beaches, and extensive range of shops, restaurants, and bars. Mylor Harbour, just over three miles away, offers excellent marina and boating facilities for sailing enthusiasts. The cathedral city of Truro is also within easy reach and provides the county's principal shopping, educational, and commercial amenities.
DESCRIPTION The property is an impressive Grade II listed residence, understood to date from the 17th century, with a substantial Georgian extension. During the 19th century, it is believed to have served as the dower house for the Enys family, remaining within the Enys Estate until the 1990's when a major restoration was carried out.
The two holiday barns provide excellent income potential and are currently operated by the owners as successful holiday lets. Each benefits from ample parking and its own garden space.
The property extends to over two acres of mature gardens and includes a paddock, providing generous outdoor space suitable for a range of uses, including family occupation.
MAIN HOUSE Bathed in natural light through its large sash windows, which enhance the well-proportioned accommodation and complement the many period features found throughout the property. The layout provides a comfortable family home, with a good balance of formal and informal living spaces suited to both everyday living and entertaining.
The kitchen with a gas AGA, forms the heart of the home and opens into the dining room with a charming wood burning stove, which in turn leads through to the conservatory, creating a spacious and sociable living area. The drawing room and sitting room each enjoy views across the surrounding gardens and grounds, while the snug overlooks the pond and provides an additional reception room, ideal as a quieter sitting area or study.
The first floor is arranged around a spacious landing, with an inner landing providing an airing cupboard and stairs to the carpeted loft. There are three double bedrooms here, including the principal bedroom, which enjoys a pleasant outlook over the grounds and benefits from a Jack and Jill bathroom shared with the main landing.
A secondary staircase, located near the front entrance, leads to a further section of the house comprising two additional double bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate shower room. This area is currently arranged as ancillary accommodation to the main house, providing flexible space that could suit extended family, guests or a variety of other uses, subject to a purchaser's requirements (and necessary consents).
COTTAGES Beyond the main house are two generous cottages, which the current owners operate as successful holiday lets. The cottages would also be ideal for accommodating visiting family and friends or offering excellent potential for ancillary accommodation, subject to any necessary consents. Each of the cottages benefit from space for their own parking and their own garden spaces.
