Description

The Manse is a striking period property with timeless character features which include picture rails, sash windows, wood burners and decorative fireplaces. Classically proportioned with lovely exposed wooden flooring in a number of rooms, the residence would make a wonderful family home for discerning purchasers.

A cosy and inviting lounge with a fireplace and wood burning stove would seem the perfect place to sit and relax with a novel on those colder nights. A light and airy dining room opens into a Wisteria clad sun terrace for those warmer evenings entertaining friends and family. The sitting room has a further wood burning stove with a back boiler and French doors opening onto a rear decked area. A very useful utility and cloak room and well equipped fitted kitchen complete the ground floor accommodation.

A delightful, coloured glass window stands proud over the staircase and landing which leads on to a large beautifully appointed fitted bathroom and four bedrooms, of which three are double, with the master being en-suite.

Lovely views across to Falmouth Bay and the Roseland Peninsula beyond can be enjoyed beyond neighbouring properties from the rear bedroom and bathroom.

A real highlight of the residence is the beautiful sun terrace with decking and steps down to neatly landscaped gardens which enjoy a sunny outlook and play host to an array of mature flowers shrubs and trees. The former garage has been reconfigured so as to provide the versatility of a studio, office space or storage to suit a range of needs. There are useful outbuildings and a delightful bespoke folly which looks out over the rear courtyard garden and pond.

St. Keverne, which is situated on the eastern side of the Lizard Peninsula, has a good range of amenities catering for everyday needs including a post office, doctors' surgery, restaurant, general stores, two public houses, church, primary school and butcher. The village is situated within miles of open countryside and the coast is close at hand. The more comprehensive range of amenities of Helston are some ten miles distant and these include national stores, cinema, sports centre with indoor swimming pool.

The residence benefits from some electric heating, air to air heating and a back boiler in the sitting room. The accommodation in brief comprises an entrance hallway, lounge, dining room, sitting room, kitchen, inner hallway, utility room, bathroom and four bedrooms (master en-suite).

About Christophers, Helston

5 Wendron Street, Helston, TR13 8PT
Industry affiliations:Industry affiliation logo 0Industry affiliation logo 1Industry affiliation logo 2

Christophers Estate Agents is an independent estate agency that was started with a view of providing "pure traditional estate agency".

The company was established in 2002 and has an experienced team who for many years have dealt with property in this district.

We are indeed privileged to work in an area of such natural beauty. Helston is the gateway and commercial centre for the Lizard Peninsula and provides a range of national stores, Comprehensive School, College, Sports Centre with indoor swimming pool and a Cinema. The town is linked to the coast by the beautiful Penrose Estate which is also home to Cornwall's largest natural fresh water lake at Loe Pool.

To the west our area skirts around Mount's Bay and it encompasses a number of highly regarded villages and attractive areas of open countryside.

Flora Day is the most important day in the Helston calendar. It takes place at the beginning of May each year and although it's origins are lost in the mists of time it is believed to have been performed by the townsfolk for hundreds if not thousands of years. During the day four Furry dances take place the first one starting at 7.00 a.m. in the morning! Thousands of people throng the streets of this Ancient Market town to welcome in the Spring. The principal dance takes place at 12 noon with the gentleman in morning suits and top hats and the ladies wearing long colourful dresses with splendid hats.
