An imposing residence originally built in 1912 of traditional stone construction with exposed granite quoins under a natural slate roof, with a later two storey extension.  The property has been in the same family ownership since construction and now requires full refurbishment throughout but lends itself to be utilised as dual family accommodation or indeed as a sizeable family home.

Location
Trethannas Farm is accessed off a minor country lane in the hamlet of Trethannas lying approximately ½ a mile east of the village of Praze-an-Beeble, which provides facilities for everyday requirements to include village shop, GP surgery, primary school and public house. The towns of Camborne to the north and Helston to the south, provide a greater variety of retail and professional services along with many leisure facilities and schooling. Camborne boasts a mainline railway station on the Paddington to Penzance line and also access to the A30 dual carriageway, the main arterial road through the County. For the sporting enthusiasts, the farm lies in an area renowned for its extensive riding out or cycling along many quiet country lanes.

The Property
The property is entered via an open wood frame porch with a slate roof and tessellated tiled floor leading through a stained glass front door with stained glass side panel, to the entrance hall with a main staircase to the first floor.

The property boasts extensive accommodation to include a drawing room and dining room both with bay windows, marble open fireplaces, living room with conservatory to the front of the house, kitchenette/breakfast room, inner hall with L-shape bathroom off with freestanding bath, pedestal wash hand basin & wc, kitchen with dairy to the rear with access to outside.

The first floor provides a landing with walk-in storage cupboard, five double bedrooms and a bathroom with bath, shower cubicle, wc and pedestal wash hand basin.

Outside, the house is complemented with formal gardens to the front and side, predominantly laid to lawn with established perennial shrubs and plants, seven large conifer trees lining the edges and containing a greenhouse.

Through the garden is laid the original driveway with granite stone wall and wrought iron gates at the entrance. The garden to the rear contains an area of lawn, shrubbery and greenhouse together with useful outbuildings, one containing the central heating oil tank.

The Farm Buildings

Two storey section (90' x 18') and single storey sections (57'6 x 16'6 and 44'3 x 13'6). Opposite the range of stone barns is a dilapidated stone and slate roof former boiler house.
