Description

Originally believed to have formed part of the garden buildings of Lismore House, this Grade II listed property has been thoughtfully and sensitively converted to create a home of remarkable character. Showcasing bespoke joinery, interesting and attractive architectural features, and beautifully presented accommodation, it offers a rare combination of historic charm and modern versatility.

Tucked away in one of the older and most historic parts of town, the property enjoys a secluded setting while remaining exceptionally convenient for local amenities. The layout is both spacious and flexible, making it equally appealing to a professional couple seeking a striking and individual home with ample space to work and entertain, or to a family with older children who will appreciate both the space and warm and welcoming feel.

The accommodation includes three double bedrooms, the master benefitting from an en-suite, together with a family bathroom . The dual aspect sitting room, complete with a log burner, is both large and cosy, while a separate dining room provides further space for entertaining. At the heart of the home lies the fabulous kitchen/breakfast room on the lower ground floor, opening directly onto the delightful courtyard-style garden - a perfect spot for morning coffee or summer evenings or perhaps listening to the band in "the gardens" on Flora Day!!! A utility room, cloakroom and off-road parking further enhance the practicality of the home.

Full of warmth, history, and charm, this is a truly special property that must be seen to be fully appreciated. Viewing is essential.

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.
