The Location

Formerly the ancient capital of the County, Lostwithiel occupies an attractive valley setting and is regarded as one of Cornwall's most attractive small towns. There is a real sense of community here, with shops for most day to day needs, lovely pubs and restaurants, a doctor’s surgery, modern dental surgery, and access to the beautiful waters of the Fowey River.

The town also has a main line Railway Station with links to Paddington, London. Two local schools provide education for primary school age children. There are many world class gardens to be found in the immediate area and the fascinating Eden Project with its futuristic biomes is just a few miles away. There are good road links to the motorway system via the A38/A30, and there are flights to London from Newquay.

The Property

Conveniently located in a quiet setting yet just a short walk to the town, this lovely property has so much to offer.

Updated and extended by the current owners, the property offers very flexible living space with accommodation arranged over two floors. Currently configured as a 6 bedroom house, the bedroom areas could be altered to make a separate living space/accommodation for a dependant relative or individual quarters for a young family.

With parking for several vehicles on the driveway and a detached garage, there are gardens to the front and rear, which gets sun for the majority of the day. Viewing is essential to appreciate the flexibility of this lovely home.

Accommodation

The front door opens to a spacious hallway with door opening to the lovely light and airy sitting room with large window affording a fabulous view over the town and countryside beyond. With an open plan dining area to the rear and window looking towards to the back garden, a door opens to the kitchen. Refitted by the current owners, the well appointed kitchen offers space and flexibility with a breakfast bar and range of base and wall units with ample work surface over. A large range style cooker has gas hob over and there are a number of integrated white goods. A door opens to the rear patio with access to the rear garden. A further door leads to the hallway.

Accessed from the hallway, there are 4 bedrooms on this floor. The principal bedroom is a spacious room with large window overlooking the town. It benefits from a generous ensuite with both bath and separate shower. A further double bedroom also has an ensuite shower room. Another double bedroom and single bedroom (study) is also on this level, along with an elegant and contemporary style family bathroom with attractive tiling to walls and floor.

Stairs lead down to the lower level where there are a further 2 double bedrooms, both with ensuite facilities. A further room is configured as an open plan living/dining/kitchen, making the downstairs area an ideal space to separate from the main property if desired.

Outside

Accessed directly from Restormel Road, the property has a tarmac driveway leading up to the house. A garage is located towards the bottom of the drive and a further storage area to the rear with pedestrian door to the side. There are areas of lawn to both sides of the driveway and borders planted with shrubs and plants. Steps lead up to an attractive paved terrace bordered with galvanised railings and lovely views over the town and countryside beyond. A greenhouse is situated to one side and there is access to the rear garden around both sides of the house.

To the rear, a paved terrace runs along the length of the house and steps lead up to a lawned area and a pathway leading to a further area with trellis and space for raised vegetable beds. Enclosed by wooden fencing and stone walls, this area attracts sun until early evening.
