THE PROPERTY
Thought to have been built around 150 years ago, this rather large and fine family home retains many original features and built at a time where architecture and room sizes were more appealing. There are five bedrooms to choose from and the bedroom on the second floor is particularly lovely with stunning views out to the Penryn River, castles and sea. A 30’ plus through reception room on the ground floor has a bay window facing the front and French doors to the rear garden which along with the 8ft high ceiling makes for a lovely room filled with natural light. There are many original features like the hand rail and balustrades, exposed strip pine floorboards, corbel in the hallway, sash windows and tile slipped fireplaces. To the rear is an enclosed garden that faces mainly South. Being sold on a freehold basis with no onward chain.
