Redruth

A fine example of a detached house on the western outskirts of Redruth, just a few minutes drive from the A30 but in a relatively traffic-free setting, with attractively stocked and landscaped gardens to both front and rear, private off-road parking and space for garaging (subject to consents). The accommodation is well presented and appointed throughout and has been substantially extended to provide additional living areas, an immense ground floor bed/sitting room with en-suite shower room, which supplements 3 first floor bedrooms, one of which has also been substantially extended, another of which has a second en-suite, as well as a family bathroom. This really is an exceptional family home with a recent A3 Mundic Report ie. mortgageable. No onward chain.

The Property - 'Carbys' is situated in a quiet, relatively traffic-free location on the western outskirts of Redruth. The A30, which provides rapid access around and out of the county, is just a few minutes drive away, and the north coast surfing beaches of Portreath and Porthtowan, as well as neighbouring Perranporth and Gwithian etc, are easily accessed.

The house originates from the pre-war period but has been substantially extended to the side and rear to provide additional areas which include a highly useful utility room, split-level dining room and snug/study with doors which open directly onto the side parking area, a massive ground floor bedroom which has previously been used as a bed/sitting room with private en-suite shower room - ideal for a dependent relative or teenage child etc. Upstairs, a second bedroom has a private bathroom, there are two further bedrooms, one of which has also been extended, and a family bathroom/WC with sanitary ware.

The extended accommodation also provides a 'double' kitchen, double glazing has been installed, there is gas fired central heating and an open fireplace with real flame gas fire in the sitting room.

Outside, the front gardens are attractively stocked and include a sun terrace with views over the outskirts of the town to Carn Brea with, to the rear, the rear and side gardens being a particular feature of the property being well enclosed to all sides, highly sunny, sheltered and with many features including a substantial split-level BBQ/outside dining terrace. Two/three car parking is provided immediately adjacent to the house with, in our opinion, space existing in the side garden area for the construction of a garage if required, subject of course to all the normal consents.
