Mevagissey, Cornwall

This beautifully presented, converted old Sunday school, believed to date back to the late 1800's, benefits from a spectacular interior that gives this property the real WOW factor, with many period and gothic style features and offers very spacious and comfortable living accommodation.

This exquisite property, architecturally impresses with its cornish stone elevations with gothic style mullioned windows, vaulted ceilings, ornate archways, timber panelling, exposed timber beams, beautifully detailed internal doors and with so much more! The property also has many ground floor rooms with impressive slate flooring as well as under floor heating. Surprisingly, this property benefits from not being a listed property.

The property boasts an impressive and very lovely, large private westerly facing lawned garden with a lychgate style entrance that leads to a beautifully landscaped mediterranean style side garden with slate terrace for outdoor dining and with matching steps that lead to an entertaining/ relaxing area with gazebo and an impressive hot tub (available subject to negotiation), potential changing room, currently used as an office/ craft room and situated at the end of the rear lawned garden is a thatched cabana style summerhouse.

The property is currently used as a cherished main home but also would make a great investment property if required, with great income potential if used as a second home, as in a previous ownership the property was holiday let and we are informed, previously generated a gross income of over £35,000 p/a.
