Beautifully presented Grade II Listed Georgian family home in a quiet yet convenient location set part way between Truro city and the north Cornish coast. 4/5 bedroom accommodation together with a single storey stone barn with potential (subject to consent), several outhouses and gardens and grounds of approximately one acre but with scope for the purchase or rental of additional land. Sold with no onward chain.

The Property
Treffery House is a detached Grade II Listed Georgian house with attractive mellow stone facades under a natural slate roof, set on the outskirts of Ventongimps. The house is thought to have originally been thatched and subject to a fire which saw a total restoration in 1895, hence the presence of many Victorian features, and during our client's 25 year ownership the property has been beautifully and sympathetically improved whilst much charm, character and original features have been retained, including working multi-paned wooden sash windows and exposed floorboards as well as many feature fireplaces.

In all the accommodation comprises; entrance porch with tessellated tiled floor, large entrance hallway with slate flooring and fitted with cloak cupboards (one large enough for a w.c., subject to consent), fabulous dual aspect sitting room - some windows fitted with window seats - with office cupboard, second staircase to the first floor and a huge granite fireplace housing a wood burning stove and complete with original clome oven, dining room with ornate fireplace, kitchen with dual fuel Rangemaster cooker included in the sale, and utility room to the ground floor with the first floor offering a landing with stained glass window, 4/5 bedrooms (three of which are doubles) and two bathrooms to the first floor.

Outbuildings
To the side of the house is a single storey stone barn thought to have potential for conversion into a small dwelling/annexe, studio or work from home space (subject to consent) but which is equally suited to providing useful storage and additionally there is a further stone shed at the rear for garden storage, a red-brick former cart house and two small outhouses, all ideal for storing garden and outdoor equipment or with potential for other uses (subject to planning approval).

Gardens & Grounds
A paved patio at the rear offers a lovely space for alfresco dining alongside a pond with waterfall feature. Set beyond and above the patio is a large, level garden (along the boundaries of which a buyer will be required to erect a stock proof fence within 3 months of completion). The whole site extends to one acre or thereabouts, but additional land may be available for sale or for long term rent by negotiation. At the front of the property is parking for several vehicles and access to the side and rear.
