The Old Schoolhouse, Whitecross, TR20 8BT

Situated between the towns of Penzance and Hayle on the outskirts of the village of Whitecross, giving easy access to the A30 and and the main line railway is this detached former school. The Old Schoolhouse has been renovated and converted into a spacious family home with many unique characters and the accommodation comprises of three bedrooms and large office, which could be a fourth bedroom and a separate annexe with two bedrooms that can be completely used on its own if required for annexe living or let out on a long term or holiday let if needed. Outside to the front of the property there is a large driveway with parking for multiple vehicles leading to the lawned garden. To the rear there is area laid to patio with lawn and pond, wooden shed, steps lead to a meadow mainly laid to lawn with established trees and shrub borders, orchard and separate access at the top of the field. The accommodation in brief comprises, on the ground floor, in the main house, three double bedrooms, lounge with mezanine gallery enjoying views towards St Michael's Mount, there is bathroom, separate shower room and a large kitchen/dining room with further mezanine area leading to the large office, which could be used as fourth bedroom or separated to provide further accommodation. Doors from the kitchen lead to a large sunroom to the rear, which then internally leads to the two bedroom annexe with shower room, open plan living room/kitchen and separate entrance, external entrance with further garden area. Due to the flexibility and character of the property and its location, we would fully recommend a viewing to appreciate. The property offers huge potential with the separation of the two bedroom annexe to give supplementary income or dependant relative living if required and the large gardens to the rear could be developed, subject to any necessary planning permissions.
