3 bedroom detached house

This exceptional one off home was constructed using a timber frame method over the past four years under a class Q consent where previously an agricultural building was positioned. The property is free of any occupancy conditions and is offered for sale with no forward chain. Our clients had a hand in the design of the home to ensure it delivered on their needs and wishes. The luxury residence has split level accommodation with three bedrooms all with their own en-suite facilities. The main reception space is extremely imposing with above a large mezzanine area which is used for relaxing and home working. The kitchen/dining room is well appointed with a range of integrated appliances included in the sale. Externally, the grounds are well manicured and are a perfect balance having space for relaxing, growing, playing and grazing. The lifestyle afforded at this home is supported by the proximity of a vibrant community being a short walk away as is a nationally acclaimed restaurant and the A30 providing excellent access to towns and cities. We would have no hesitation in strongly recommending a viewing at the earliest opportunity.

The gardens are extremely well kept and a credit to our clients. They comprise of at the rear an initial paved terrace which is extensive and perfect when entertaining for BBQ’s and parties. This south facing orientation is most pleasant and incorporates a circular seating area and a square ornamental pond with space to find shade during the hottest times. Many attractive shrubs and bushes feature and add a blaze of colour through the seasons. Below this area is a large enclosed orchard which is planted with a range of fruit trees including apples, pears, cherry and damson.

At the side is the productive and enclosed vegetable garden which has been superbly developed in recent years, the area features five raised beds and a large greenhouse, all of which is bursting with fine produce. The summerhouse has its own decking and beyond is the chicken run.

The whole of these areas enjoy a wonderful outlook being entirely private and sheltered, at the side a view towards Kit Hill can be seen. There is outside water and lighting with the paddock having a mains water connection. The total area amounts to 4.4 acres.

The following is a quotation from the home owners:

“Spending late spring days in the vegetable garden followed by long evenings with friends enjoying the fruits of our labour around the BBQ, Trelowen can make you feel as if you have stepped away from the usual hustle and bustle of life and immerse you in the sights, smells and sounds of the countryside.”
