SETTING THE SCENE
Tregony is often known as the gateway to the Roseland Peninsula - an area of outstanding natural beauty with much of the coastline in the ownership of the National Trust, and a wealth of sandy beaches, fishing villages, lovely countryside and sailing waters.
Set between Truro and the coastal villages of the Roseland, Tregony supports the peninsula, with excellent primary and secondary schools, doctors' surgery, dentist, hairdresser, public house and mini-supermarket along its wide main street. The small city of Truro with private schools, railway station and Waitrose supermarket is just 8 miles drive.
HISTORY
The manor of Tregony was recorded in the Domesday Book (1086) and Tregony itself was once a thriving port on the River Fal before it silted up.
The Old Rectory is a classically , granite-faced, five-bedroom Grade II Listed detached house dating back to the late 18th Century. Boasting generous proportions, it features Victorian-era additions and a rich history as a former town hall, school and antiques shop.
THE TOUR
An impressive Grade II Listed granite-fronted townhouse, rich in character and original period charm. Dating back to the late-1700s, the house has been beautifully restored and unfolds over 3816 sqft of wonderful, light-filled living space. The sense of scale and character is immediately apparent as you step beyond the handsome façade into a grand entrance hall, where a imposing open staircase rises to a magnificent galleried landing above. Defined by exceptional proportions and thoughtful and light-hearted interiors, the home is full of warmth, personality, and the unmistakable imprint of happy family life.
Two elegant reception rooms flank the hallway, each with full-height sash windows that ring in an abundance of natural light. To the rear lies a large family kitchen that opens into a sunroom, creating a perfect hub for everyday living and entertaining. The first-floor rooms radiate from a wonderfully spacious landing, comprising a principal suite, three further bedrooms and a large family bathroom. The current owners have also sensitively reconfigured the North wing to form a self-contained two bedroom annexe with both internal and independent external access. Wonderfully versatile, it offers excellent potential for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, rental income, or seamless reintegration into the main house.
STEP OUTSIDE
The charming, south-west facing walled garden is completely enclosed and wonderfully private. Accessible from both the kitchen and French doors opening from the drawing room, it enjoys all-day sunlight and lovely views towards the village clock tower. The garden is primarily laid to lawn, framed by mature shrubs, trees, and walls draped in greenery and wisteria, with pockets for play and alfresco dining. To the rear, there is secure and convenient private parking for two cars, which leads into an attractive central courtyard around which the house elegantly wraps.
