The property is light and airy and is dressed in fashionable and contemporary neutral colours that highlight this comfortable home's character. Features include vaulted ceilings, open beams, slate floors and window sills with Juliet windows. This family sized property has up to date bespoke bath and shower rooms and a traditional breakfast kitchen, which derives its half-rounded shape from its believed original purpose to house a donkey engine which powered a corn grinding mill. The internal design has been well thought out, taking maximum advantage of the setting and the farreaching views. It is interestingly arranged over three levels, with the kitchen on the mezzanine level. The impressive 30'6 living room and spacious master bedroom suite are on the top level. Planning permission was granted in August 2015 to extend off the kitchen and living room via a link vestibule to build a substantial 'garden' room with sun terrace. Externally, the property, surrounded by its own private gardens, is reached through an imposing automatic gateway, via a drive and enjoys a garage and car port barn (which has planning permission for an ancillary 1 bedroom studio). A further detached barn has been utilised as a fitness / games room with a shower room / wc. The gardens offer privacy and an array of colour with an ease of maintenance via expanses of lawn. Bordering the gardens are the paddocks which are level and divided into 6 enclosures. They are accessed separately from the main dwelling and also feature a floodlit manege as well as an excellent range of stables and stores. A stunningly presented character family residence, conveniently located to the Cathedral city of Truro, local sandy beaches and excellent sailing facilities. This desirable house is suited towards the permanent or second home family or buyer seeking a retirement home. The land, stables and manege could be sold off separately or let long term.
