Situation - Tremore Lodge stands at the head of the entrance drive to Tremore Manor, now a country house and recently a Christian Retreat, about 2 miles to the west of the village of Lanivet. Lanivet is a thriving community with local facilities and amenities including village stores and post office, a public house, primary school, church, community centre and so forth which are supplemented further by the old county town of Bodmin, about 4 miles to the east.

Being centrally located in Cornwall, Tremore Lodge is well situated to access the A30(T) running through the backbone of the county, and Bodmin Parkway Railway Station on the London Paddington line is about 8 miles distant.

Tremore Lodge - Tremore Manor is originally believed to have formed part of the Lanhydrock Estate. It is thought that Tremore Lodge was constructed between 1872 and 1880 as a gatehouse to the Manor by the Henwood family and became an independent residence just before the Second World War. The current owner has recently carried out a complete renovation programme of this historic dwelling and also converted an adjoining outbuilding and old garage into a separate self-contained annexe.

The improvement works which have been carried out include re-wiring, re-plumbing; installation of new kitchens, shower room and bathroom; installation of a new balustrade turning staircase; replacement of some windows; replacement of internal and some external door; new insulated floors and skirtings; new ceilings; decoration and new floor coverings; installation of electric Haverland eco radiators and so forth.

Tremore Lodge offers a character and architecturally pleasing residence, which fully reflects its status as a Grade II Listed Building of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. Traditional features include a heavy arched front door with ornate hinges and lion's head knocker, arched windows, some exposed ceiling timbers and so forth.

The Accommodation - A part opaque glazed door opens to an inviting Hall/Reception Room with wood effect floor, recessed timber clad coats and boots storage with beam over, wood-burner (new November 2022) set in original brick fireplace, deep storage cupboard and side arched window with slate sill. Off is an impressive Living Room with feature wood-burner set in original fireplace and original Gothic arched front door with matching Gothic arched windows to either side with slate sills. (It is considered this room could be used as a second bedroom if desired).

The Kitchen and Dining Room is a light and airy, double aspect room with wood effect floor, turning balustrade stairs off to the first floor and matching range of modern Shaker style light kitchen units with wood effect worktops to splashback tiling. The kitchen includes a Blanco ceramic sink unit with mixer tap, larder cupboard, integral dishwasher, cupboards and drawers, integral refrigerator, space for electric cooker with extractor hood over and eye level cupboard with shelving and plate rack.

Off the Kitchen and Dining Room is a Utility Room with space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer with worktop surface over and a separate Bathroom with matching white modern suite including 'P' bath with rainshower and screen over, pedestal washbasin, close coupled wc to timber wall cladding with shelving and chrome wall mounted towel radiator.

On the first floor is a fine and attractive Master Bedroom with vaulted pitched ceiling and double aspect, including latticed arched window, enjoying some delightful views. There is access to side boarded loft and power and a fitted cupboard.

The Annexe - The original planning permission dated 20th December 2020 (application no. PA20/05156) sets out that the annexe is to be used either, by members of the family or non-paying guests of the occupiers of Tremore Lodge, as a holiday letting unit, not being occupied by any one person for more than 28 days of the year. (A copy of the relevant planning Decision Notice is available from Stags Truro office on request).

The accommodation to the annexe offers an open-plan Kitchen and Living Room with Kitchenette area including stainless steel single drainer sink unit with adjoining worktop surfaces with cupboard and shelving under and at eye level, a cupboard, microwave shelf and further open shelving.

There is a herringbone wood effect floor and this room opens down to a Double Bedroom and there is a separate Shower Room with walk-in shower with rainshower, wc, pedestal washbasin and chrome wall mounted towel radiator.

The Outside - Immediately adjacent to Tremore Lodge and The Annexe are stone chipped car parking areas for several vehicles and adjoining to the south and south-west are extensive gardens, which are currently laid mainly to lawn with a number of deciduous and coniferous tree standards. The gardens currently warrant some landscaping, perhaps utilising traditional stone walls currently in situ, and also to take full advantage of some delightful views away to the south.

Within the gardens is a timber and bitumen felt Shed, a traditional Stone Shed about 8'9 x 7'1 and an interesting slate sided water trough. In total, the gardens extend to about .30 of an acre.
