Park Villa really is a substantial link detached Victorian property with some amazing period features retained. The vendor informs us that the property was built around 1870 by the famous Redruth architect James Hicks. The property has a wonderful flowing light filled interior of elegant proportions with high ceilings. To the first floor one will find five bedrooms with an en-suite and a shower room. The ground floor vestibule has what appears to be the original floor and the hallway has sweeping stairs to the first floor. There is a magnificent large bay windowed living room with a fire surround, a second reception room with a fire surround and a third again with a fire surround and inset tiling. Doors then lead to a sun lounge and to the side is a well appointed kitchen. Steps then lead to two useful laundry areas. A lot of the flooring is pine and there is also a magnificent parquet floor in the dining room which enhances the property. There are two large bay windows and wooden surrounds have been retained to keep the personality of the property. The sitting room panelled door has amazing embossing to one side which we think may be original. Heating is via a gas combination system. Externally the property is approached by two inset cast iron pillars and the house itself offers exposed stone which is a fine feature. There is a small garden to the front with side railings and the rear has a pedestrian entrance leading to a courtyard with steps up to a partially covered sitting out area overlooking the lawns which are interspersed well stocked flower borders. Further steps will take you to a large summerhouse/work room and then on to a garage. Redruth town is within is a few hundred yards level walk and here you will find shops, travelling facilities and a selection of specialist outlets.
To summarise, if you are looking for a substantial traditional family home, we strongly suggest an early inspection.
