House For Sale £650,000
Lewis Haughton Wills are proud to offer for sale this beautiful commanding 5 bedroomed, 3 reception roomed detached residence which over the years has been re-designed in places and updated to high standards both inside and out by the current owners.
Positioned in one of Redruth's, if not Redruth’s most highly regarded tree-lined roads just a short walk to Redruth's Town Centre, local schooling and the mainline railway station which takes you from Penzance to London Paddington. I understand this property was originally designed by the renowned mr james hicks back in the 1870’s who was a local architect and surveyor as well as the main agent working for lord clinton on Treruffe Estate, Redruth. He built for himself ‘Penarth House’ No: 1 Clinton Road, next to St Andrews Church and from here had a huge involvement in iconic buildings, Schools, Churches within the neighbourhood, to such an extent that parts of Redruth were referred to as Hicksville.
Internally, the property has been sympathetically restored to an extremely high standard retaining many original features which only a viewing will fully appreciate. As you enter the property you are greeted by many character features and a striking mosaic tiled hallway with the original balustraded staircase rising to the first floor. The Ground floor accommodation comprises; principle living room with wood burning stove, second large reception room, separate dining room which flows into the conservatory, a superb modern 26ft x 13ft kitchen dining room with a 19ft utility off. Concluding the ground floor accommodation is a family bathroom and an interlinking hallway which brings together the inner hallway, kitchen, and conservatory. From the kitchen there is a second original servants’ staircase which brings you to the mid landing of the house.
To the first floor you will find all five bedrooms, separate cloakroom, and luxury shower room. All the bedrooms benefit from their own pedestal wash hand basin with the master bedroom also benefitting from an extensive range of built-in wardrobes and matching bedroom furniture. The loft hatch has a pull-down ladder which provides access to a cavernous loft space which could be converted for further accommodation depending on personal requirements.
Outside, to the front is a lawned garden with two pathways. One to the side and the other to the front of the property. The main garden is located to the rear which has been professionally landscaped consisting of slate flagstone flooring, a number of different lawned sections and decked platforms. The garden is enclosed offering privacy and security ideal for children and pets. The garden has external lighting which really brings it to life in the summer evenings. The garden also houses a detached workshop, separate block built outbuilding and the original 'Privy’.
Beyond the rear garden gates, you will find a detached double garage with electric door. 18’11 x 9’5 car port and further parking for two vehicles.
