PERIOD STYLE HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF TRURO
Situated in a glorious location seemingly 'miles from anywhere' yet only a short distance to Truro and Penair Schools, Pencalenick School, Truro City, Waitrose and the Tresilian River at St Clement.
Tucked away in a beautiful position forming part of the former Penair House, 4/5 Bedroom accommodation on a reverse level layout with mature gardens.
Private driveway with ample parking.
General Comments - As its name suggests, West Wing was added as an extension to the original Penair House. West Wing was built in 1986. The design seamlessly complements the original architecture of Penair House, offering accommodation of a very highest standard. The spacious, bright, and airy rooms feature high ceilings, wide doorways, and large windows. On the first floor, these windows provide stunning, expansive views of the surrounding countryside.
A standout feature of West Wing is its excellent countryside location within a private enclave of nine neighbouring properties just outside Truro. Despite its rural setting, it is only about a mile from the city centre. West Wing enjoys a prime countryside position, accessed via a long, attractive private drive, offering easy access to Truro's shopping, recreational facilities, and amenities. It is also conveniently located near Penair School and Truro School. The area also offers scenic country and riverside walks.
The Property - The upper ground floor features a conservatory with steps leading up to double doors that open onto an elevated decked seating area, offering stunning views - an ideal spot for morning coffee. The 40-foot-long hallway leads to a sitting room with a wood burner set within a feature fireplace. The kitchen/breakfast room, which also enjoys beautiful views, boasts a high ceiling, exposed wood flooring, traditional style kitchen units with hardwood worktops. Additionally, the floor includes a study, a utility cupboard with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, and a spacious bathroom.
A staircase leads down to the lower ground floor, which includes a light and spacious master bedroom with an en-suite shower room, a guest bedroom with an en-suite WC, two additional double bedrooms, and another large bathroom.
West Wing is accessed via a long, private, and picturesque shared driveway, which leads to a private drive that takes you to a generous parking and turning area beside the house. From the tarmac parking area, there is direct access to the front door through the conservatory. Adjacent to this is an elevated timber deck, offering views of the surrounding countryside.
In front of West Wing lies a level lawned garden, adorned with a variety of plants and shrubs, which could be enclosed for added privacy.
