PROPERTY
Set within 2 acres of meticulously landscaped and maintained gardens is this impressive Homestead whose origins date back to the late 1800's but with 21st Century extensions.
Prepare to be captivated from the moment you arrive as the long driveway leads you towards the property. The impeccably presented, generously sized rooms give this family home a real sense of space and freedom.
A large extension in 2015 created a magnificent Sitting Room and dining room with Master Suite above. Tastefully built to tie seamlessly into the existing building, the new extension offers modern conveniences such as underfloor heating.
The crowning jewel of this remarkable residence lies in its impressive, large kitchen, perfect for indulging your culinary talents. The Rozen's designed and fitted kitchen offers custom built cabinetry with integrated Neff appliances including a Dishwasher, Fridge and Combi Microwave/Grill/Oven as well as a modern Aga and with an inset Belfast sink. The original slate tiled floor leads out to a stunning, expansive reception hall with a woodburning stove which in turn leads to the dining room and sitting room. A large fireplace is a superb focal point in the sitting room with a Chesneys' woodburning stove. This room is ideal for entertaining with south facing, full height sash windows providing plenty of light. French doors lead out to immaculately maintained lawns and a patio area for al-fresco dining. Adjoining this room is a large, more formal dining room with an open fire and south facing window looking out over the private sunken garden patio area.
The Orangery is a recent addition to the property and offers a further, less formal, dining area, entertaining space or simply somewhere to relax and enjoy the garden and far-reaching countryside views.
The custom-built staircase from the reception hall, leads to four double bedrooms and a family bathroom. A sizable master bedroom suite with separate dressing room and en-suite bathroom with large bath and walk in shower, offers a fantastic area to wind down at the end of the day. A full-size seating area, vaulted ceiling and dual aspect windows gives this room a feeling of space and luxury.
Outside, the house is wrapped to three sides by a meticulously maintained lawned garden. In addition to the patio areas to the side of the sitting room and dining room, there is a further undercover patio area near to the sweeping gravel pathway which takes you through the garden and around the well-established plants which provide all year colour and interest.
To the front of the house is a spacious drive with parking for multiple vehicles and a detached double garage which has power and lighting.
SURROUNDING AREA
The house is situated on the rural outskirts of the village of Crowntown. The village is situated in the west of the county between the Lands End and Lizard peninsulas, 3 miles from Helston, 20 miles from Truro and 4 miles from the shores of Mounts Bay. This is a particularly picturesque part of the county where time seems to have stood still. Small family farms are interspersed by mature woodland and country lanes.
For those seeking a connection to the sea, the charming coastal village of Porthleven is within 4 miles. Embrace the picturesque joys it offers with its idyllic harbour and three miles of sandy beaches. Days spent walking barefoot along the shore or savouring fresh seafood delicacies are simply moments away.
The nearby town of Helston is an historic and attractive town with a good range of facilities. Home to the Flora Day celebrations in early May and containing a mixture of national retailers and smaller family run businesses.
Truro some 20 miles distant has a full range of shops and restaurants plus private and public sector schooling. Crowntown is surrounded by unspoiled rolling countryside although only over 4 miles from the south coast and the historic harbour of Porthleven
Communications between Cornwall and the rest of the country have improved dramatically in recent years with the A30 now nearly a complete dual carriageway to the junction with the M5 at Exeter (106 miles). Train services operate between Penzance and London Paddington with journey times from approximately 4¾ hours and scheduled flights connect Newquay Airport (35 miles) with Gatwick and various other European destinations.
AGENTS COMMENT
This stunning family home really does have a feeling of light, space and luxury.
A large modern extension in 2015 doubled the size of the house and offers modern generous rooms that are light and airy and have the benefit of underfloor heating.
The recently completed orangery fits in perfectly with the original building and offers a fantastic space for entertaining whilst taking in the exquisite views over the garden and beyond.
The modern lighting system, the beautifully finished vaulted ceilings and the floor to ceiling sash windows create a home that would be perfect for anyone. The addition of the expansive master bedroom suite gives it a real Wow factor.
This is a modern house with a characterful exterior set within glorious grounds.
