Description

A DETACHED 3 BEDROOM HOUSE SET IN APPROXIMATELY 4 ACRES OF GROUNDS WITH A SEPARATE DETACHED 2 BEDROOM ANNEXE. PARKING AND OUTBUILDINGS, PEACEFUL AND PRIVATE RURAL LOCATION. NO ONWARD CHAIN.

The Location - Situated in a peaceful rural setting in south east Cornwall, the area lies on the eastern slopes of the River Fowey estuary approximately 1.5 miles from the village of Lerryn. Willsland (including Lower Willsland) is an historic rural farming locality and residential area located in the civil parish of St Veep.

The area is primarily agricultural and deeply rooted in local history, featuring old estates like Higher Willsland dating back to at least the 19th century. For everyday needs, residents typically rely on the nearby village of Lerryn, which features a local village store and a pub. Further amenities can be found in nearby Lostwithiel or Pelynt.

Once away from the immediate local lanes, there are good road connections to the motorway system via the A38/A30. Railway connections (London Paddington) can be made at a number of local stations (Par, Liskeard & Lostwithiel).

The Property - This spacious detached house offers flexible living accommodation over two floors and with the addition of a separate 2 bedroom annexe, would benefit a family looking for accommodation for a dependant relative or income potential.

The extensive gardens and grounds extend to approximately 4 acres including formal gardens, woodlands and a productive orchard. A poly tunnel is located close to the enclosed vegetable garden and a stream runs through the length of the grounds. There are a number of useful outbuildings including garage and workshops, barn and log store.

The owners have recently converted the conservatory to a planned kitchen/living space. This building work is due to be signed off for building purposes, but will not be finished inside. Please ask for further details.

Accommodation - From the driveway a door opens to the newly constructed and partially finished entrance hall with door to the partially finished kitchen with windows to 3 aspects. A door opens to an inner hallway, with a door to downstairs shower/utility room with space for washing machine, and useful storage shelves..

From the hallway, a further door leads through to the kitchen, with tiled floor and range of base and wall units. There is an oil fired Heritage 2 oven cooker and integral dishwasher. Windows overlook the garden and a door opens to the rear.

The lovely sitting/dining room is a generous size with a wood burner located to one end, wooden floor throughout and open tread stairs lead up from the sitting room to the first floor landing.

On the first floor there are 3 double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has an ensuite shower room which is located through a spacious dressing room area. The other bedrooms are both a good size with dual aspect windows

There is a recently refitted family bathroom with panelled bath and shower over, WC and wash basin.

The separate, detached stone annexe offers flexible accommodation with 2 bedrooms, bathroom and utility room on the ground floor and open plan living space on the first floor. The annexe has unrestricted use and can be used for a dependant relative, long term or holiday let. The annexe can be accessed from either the ground floor or 1st floor via external steps.

Outside - The property benefits from extensive grounds, laid to garden and also an area of woodland providing a natural habitat for wildlife. There is a garage, several timber storage/workshops and a log store.

Ideally positioned for peace and privacy, yet with neighbours not far away, this lovely property would make a lovely family home.

Boat launching facilities are not far away at Penmarlam Boat Park and the coastal paths and beaches are just a short drive.
