House For Sale £585,000
Little Trenethick Farm is a beautifully presented period residence that has been sympathetically updated and greatly enhanced during the current owners' tenure. Attractively positioned at the head of its own private walled driveway the residence sits within a generous level plot in a surprisingly tucked away location moments from the town and its amenities. The handsome former farmhouse is full of character and charm from the white beamed ceilings, Minton style floor tiling in the hallway through to the fireplaces housing wood burning stoves for those snug winter evenings. An imaginative and contemporary extension to the rear of the residence provides a delightful open plan fitted kitchen and dining area which would lend itself to sociable family gatherings. Behind the main residence is an attached single storey annex which is thoughtfully conceived, impeccably presented and is sure to win favour with those seeking an opportunity to generate an income or provide accommodation for a dependent relative.
Outside, the residence is cradled by its gardens, which are well tended and a credit to the current owners. The front garden is laid to lawn with an array of flower beds, plants and trees at its borders whilst there are paved sun terraces to the front and side to sit out and enjoy a cup of tea or al fresco dining. A useful outbuilding houses a workshop and car port with parking overall for a number of vehicles whilst behind this lies an enclosed vegetable garden with raised beds and a greenhouse.
The accommodation comprises an atrium, hallway, sitting room, snug, office, open plan kitchen/dining room, pantry, shower room, plant room and rear hallway/utility area. On the first floor there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The annex has an open plan kitchen and living space, a bedroom, a mezzanine area and a utility room that leads on to a shower room. The residence benefits from double glazing, central heating, twin solar panels and a ground source heat pump.
The town of Helston is the gateway to the Lizard Peninsula with its stunning feature coves and cliff top walks. It is a bustling market town providing facilities that include national stores, health centres, cinema and a leisure centre with indoor swimming pool. There are an array of footpaths and bridleways in the area including the beautiful Cober Valley and Penrose Estate which is owned by the National Trust and leads on to Loe Pool and Loe Bar beach beyond.
