This presents an opportunity to purchase a fine character detached house offering very adaptable family living accommodation. Set in lovely gardens with a large koi pond, the four bedroomed property also has the added bonus of an annexe and planning permission for a first floor extension and the conversion of a triple garage into two bedroomed accommodation retaining one garage. The property has double glazing complemented by gas fired heating and parking facilities for several vehicles.
Situated on the outskirts of Redruth on the Truro side, this is a most substantial detached house that in our opinion offers adaptable accommodation. It also has planning for an annexe plus conversion of the garage block into two bedroomed accommodation retaining one garage itself. There are good well enclosed gardens being sheltered and private to the side and there is also a large koi pond. The property has gas fired heating and this is complemented by double glazing. There is a good entrance hallway with stairs to the first floor and a substantial lounge with a traditional fireplace and double doors leading to a very good sized conservatory with a good standard of insulation and two large radiators. There is a separate dining room which has an ornate ceiling and the kitchen/breakfast room is very well appointed. A small annexe is also provided with a shower room and a living room/bedroom which looks out over the koi pond. Four bedrooms are provided to the first floor together with a family bathroom. The landing has two loft hatches. To the first floor exterior there is a considerable amount of cladding for ease of maintenance.
Planning is in existence with the drains having been partially dug out to cancel the three year finish and will provide a first floor extension built on the existing ground floor. There is also planning for the conversion of the garage block to two bedroomed accommodation with a lounge, kitchen and bathroom and retaining one garage.
A private driveway provides parking and turning facilities. To the western side there is a triangular garden being well screened from the road by fir trees and having lawns plus a raised decked area which looks out over the quite substantial koi pond.
There are bus services nearby plus shopping facilities including a sub post office in Mount Hawke. Redruth town is within two miles, Truro is within eight miles and access is given to the A30 and the north coast.
