Inside, the accommodation has been renovated and finished to provide clean, elegant and stylish living space, offering three bedrooms and two splendid reception rooms.
The main reception room is the dual aspect sitting room, with its painted timber beams overhead and fireplace.

The kitchen is well-equipped with shaker-style units in white, wooden worktops, a butler sink and a range cooker, plus space for all the necessary home appliances.

Upstairs, the three well-presented bedrooms include one which is ideal as a dressing room or study, with two generous doubles,
one of which has extensive storage in built-in wardrobes. The first floor also has a family bathroom with a roll-top bathtub and a separate shower unit. The detached outbuilding provides useful further living space, including a home office or studio with an attractive vaulted ceiling and exposed timber eaves. The studio measures 23ft and features a kitchenette, with an adjoining shower room, making it ideal for use as an annexe. There is also a home gym, which could be converted into a further bedroom if required.

The property is set in a picturesque position, surrounded by rolling countryside and on the doorstep of one of Cornwall's
most reputable golf courses. The driveway leads through the delightful lawned gardens to a courtyard area, where there is access to the house and outbuilding, and plenty of parking space. The detached garage provides further parking space.
