House For Sale £725,000
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to purchase this charming, detached cottage set within a third of an acre of glorious, mature landscaped gardens that provide a high degree of peace, tranquility, and privacy whilst also presenting commanding, panoramic views of the valley and village of Lanner beyond. The property is located down a quiet private lane off Pennance Road. As you arrive, you’re welcomed by a driveway with parking to accommodate two vehicles and a beautiful granite fronted 20ft x 20ft pitched double garage.
The key aspect of this property is its impressive, landscaped garden. It was carefully designed with granite quoins and lintels used for terracing and features a spectacular and extensive range of established specimens, from evergreen trees and shrubs including Rhododendrons, Camellias, and a vast collection of other plants that flower throughout the seasons, all dispersed on different levels. Close to the house is a magnificent Monkey Puzzle tree and level lawns.
We have been advised by the vendor that ten tones of Cornish slate was used for the pathways that lead you around this sprawling haven. Five ponds, linked by waterfalls, flow into the larger one stocked with fish. There are several secluded seating areas including one which has a five-ton granite table beneath a Clematis covered gazebo.
And for the keenest of gardeners there is a purpose-built greenhouse, two sides have bespoke aluminium shelving fitted along with power and water.
The current owner had the property built circa 1980 where it has been the family residence for over 40 years. The impressive frontage was most unusually hand cut, in locally sourced granite, by local craftsman along with handcrafted wooden sash windows. Internally the property offers five double bedrooms served by a family bathroom suite, a spacious living room with an open fire plus a separate dining room. The gallery-style kitchen benefits from granite worktops incorporating a breakfast bar. Off the kitchen is a utility room and a separate cloakroom.
The large garage can accommodate two cars and has a vehicle inspection pit. Above, is a very useful room which is accessed from the garden via a small bridge. This room could be utilised for a number of purposes depending on requirements.
Significantly the property is equidistant between both the north and south coasts of Cornwall by about 8 miles. It is also only about 9 miles from Truro.
