DESCRIPTION A unique and individual property boasting large gardens and plentiful, tastefully decorated accommodation. Located in a quiet, level residential location this semi detached property is approached via a pathway to front into an attractive entrance porch, which in turn leads through to a spacious hallway. The tasteful decoration on offer, with smooth plaster walls and ceilings and wooden/laminate floorings are found throughout the home. Two double bedrooms are found on the ground floor, facing the front and rear elevations and both double in size and benefitting from ample light via PVCu double glazed windows. An attractive bathroom is found towards the end of the hallway. Attractively tiled on all four walls and furnished with a matching three piece suite comprising of pedestal hand wash basin, low level WC and deep panelled bath with built-in shower over. The extended living room provides two areas for seating, with large windows to the front flooding the area with light. An inset stone fireplace and hearth contains a wood burner which provides additional warmth during those cold Winter months and a real focus to the room. The open plan kitchen diner can be accessed from the living room or hallway and provides a dining area large enough for a sizeable table and chairs. The kitchen area is well laid out with a matching range of contemporary cupboards, drawers and units at base and wall mounted height. A marble effect roll edged work surface provides ample space for preparation and incorporates a five ring gas hob with electric oven and extractor fan over. The utility room is found to the side of the property and provides further storage cupboards and work surface space and room for a variety of white goods. A door from here gives access to the lengthy garage, which is also approached via an up and over door to the front, has power and lighting and provides above average space. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a large brick base conservatory found at the rear of the property and accessed from the kitchen/diner. This beautifully installed room offers French doors that lead out into the garden, good quality double glazed windows and polycarbonate roof and offers a great opportunity for those purchasers seeking a secondary lounge or additional space for family or entertaining. The master bedroom is found on the first floor and reached via steps from the hallway. This well appointed room has been built into the eaves of the roof to provide good accommodation. A dormer window offers ample light and additional space, with glorious open views across St John's Lake and towards Mount Edgcumbe. Double in size, the room also offers its own en-suite facilities, with a door giving access to a well fitted shower room, attractively tiled and offering a wall mounted hand washbasin, low level w/c and double sized shower enclosure. The additional loft space has been part converted to provide additional storage and office space and could easily be fully converted to provide further rooms, subject to the necessary permissions. The rear garden is a real jewel and offers a sizeable level plot that benefits from sun throughout the whole day. Attractively laid out and surprisingly private, the garden offers some glorious open vistas from its central, stone laid patio. The garden itself is arranged to maximize this view, with a variety of lawned areas, decorative pond and mature shrubs and plants in borders. The rear of the garden gives further room for storage sheds and the ideal position for a vegetable garden or further planting. The front of the property offers off road parking for multiple vehicles with a lawned area to the side.
The property benefits from gas central heating, PVCu double glazing and arguably one of the most impressive gardens in the area. This coupled with the quality and abundance of internal space on offer mean a viewing is strongly advised to fully appreciate.
