Wisteria House, St. Columb, TR9


Description
Situated in an idyllic area of conservation adjacent to the river Menalhyl is this elegant and handsome double fronted detached house dating back to 1890.

Wisteria House is conveniently located on the very edge of the historic market town of St Columb, the former banking capital of North Cornwall, with an abundance of amenities and countryside walks on your doorstep.

Whilst Wisteria House has a rich history and is thought to have once been a school, the current vendors have recently completed a full top down scheme of refurbishment and modernisation to create a home of period originality alongside contemporary 21st Century living. The result is stunning!

Having taken this stone built property back to the bare bones, noteworthy attributes now include a sleek modern kitchen with integral Neff appliances, granite surfaces, porcelain tiles and Karndene flooring underfoot, an underfloor heating system, precision made timber windows and doors, a wood burning stove, Cat 5 cabling throughout and chic contemporary bathrooms with Villeroy and Boch sanitary ware.

Wisteria House has also been completely rewired, replumbed and fully insulated to todays building regulations. Alongside this contemporary remodel, the property demonstrates all the appealing characteristics you would expect from a property of this age, namely high ceilings, large rooms, tall windows, bay windows, beautiful original stonework and an abundance of natural light.

As the accompanying floorplans illustrate, the accommodation briefly comprises two large reception rooms with an inviting central hallway separating. There are three genuine double bedrooms on the first floor with a walk-in wardrobe and sumptuous master en-suite with freestanding bath. The family bathroom is again luxurious with a freestanding bath and stylish fixtures.

To the rear is an enclosed and very private garden, beautifully and rustically landscaped with natural stone levels and slate underfoot to create a low maintenance space. There is even an adorable two storey stone barn with water supply, electric provision and a rag slate roof. To the front of Wisteria House is a gravelled driveway for two vehicles with a central slate path. There is even a 7Kw electric car charging point. Services to the property include broadband, mains gas, water, electricity and drainage. EPC rating D. Council tax band C.

The locality of Wisteria House allows for peaceful living in an edge of town setting yet is within easy reach of main transport links via the A39 and Newquay Airport which are just minutes away. As such, we at Jackie Stanley highly recommend an internal viewing at the earliest opportunity to fully appreciate the contemporary characteristics of this period property.
