A very conveniently located large home of impressive stature in a relatively peaceful corner plot yet so very close to schooling, the railway station, Newquay Zoo and everything else the town has to offer.

First Floor: master bedroom with en-suite dressing room/nursery and shower room. 3 further bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms (1 with a dressing room as well).

Lawned side garden with large deck and apple tree. Rear courtyard, planting around the boundaries. In all, just under ¼ of an acre. DESCRIPTION Believed to have been built in about 1928 for Lord Edgcumbe and Lady Ulalia and of imposing appearance, Trelissick is a large detached five en-suite bedroomed family house providing outstanding spacious and immaculately presented accommodation together with plenty of parking and excellent income potential if required in a sought after residential location within walking distance of the town s facilities and beaches. The house stands within just under ¼ of an acre of grounds with masses of parking to the front on a brick paved driveway, a large courtyard to the side and at the rear is a good sized level lawn with an
3 extensive L-shaped deck in one corner shaded by a mature apple tree. In addition to the parking there is a detached single garage with a workshop and store room to its rear and a further workshop/store room is found close to the back door of the house. The original house was evidently extended to the front with the creation of a huge curving and mostly glass fronted drawing room to add to the two original bow windowed reception rooms. An elegant hall with panelling and staircase links these rooms along with an inner hall to the spacious kitchen/breakfast room overlooking the rear garden, fifth bedroom with en-suite shower room, separate wc and a utility room. On the first floor is an equally attractive part panelled landing with walk-in airing cupboard. There are four bedrooms all with en-suite shower rooms on this floor with two of the bedrooms having their own dressing rooms as well. The master bedroom suite is particularly impressive with the dressing room also being perfectly usable as a private study or nursery. The assets that Trelissick has make it ideal either as a large family home of just under 3,000sq.ft., or alternatively it has the possibility of being used for Bed & Breakfast accommodation as we believe it has previously been a guest house. No matter how the building is used, the large corner plot, quiet position and short walk to the beaches and town centre will always prove to be a huge benefit. LOCATION Newquay has much to offer including being the UK s surfing Mecca with the renowned Fistral Beach being used for many national and international championships. There are many other beaches in the immediate area from which to enjoy the fantastically clear waters including
4 Towan, Watergate, Tolcarne and Lusty Glaze, with many other beautiful bays stretching along the coastline in both directions. Much of the Cornish coastline is protected and in the ownership of the National Trust with the South West Coast Path taking in some of Great Britain s most beautiful scenery. Amongst other activities there are many quality golf courses nearby including Newquay, Perranporth, Truro and Killiow, and indeed numerous sailing clubs along the south Cornish coast with the Carrick Roads (Fal Estuary) being little more than half an hour s drive away. The town of Newquay caters for all the day to day needs including schooling, doctors and dentists, numerous restaurants and cafés, attractions and shopping including out of town supermarkets and trading estates. The cathedral city of Truro is about 16 miles away to the south and provides first class shopping, business and commercial facilities, together with private schooling. Newquay Airport, some 6 miles distant, offers regular flights to London (flight time approximately 1 hour).
