Penvale Cresent, Penryn, TR10

More Than Meets the Eye…

First impressions don't tell the whole story here. Step inside and you'll find a useful little utility area, with space for the washing machine and tumble dryer, before moving through to a lounge that makes the most of its elevated position. The large picture window draws your eye straight out to the views across rooftops and open countryside. There's an electric fire for those cosy evenings, but look a little closer at the floor and you'll find one of the property's more unusual features: a concealed hatch leading down to a surprisingly large wine cellar. Not something you come across every day!

There's a separate dining room for proper sit-down meals, Sunday lunches or evenings with friends, along with a ground-floor shower room. The kitchen is practical and well equipped for everyday life, with a door leading outside to the terrace, which sweeps around one side of the property.

Upstairs, the layout is a little different from what you might expect. Instead of two ordinary bedrooms, you'll find two seriously generous rooms, cleverly arranged around a shared Jack-and-Jill shower room. One also has a walk-in wardrobe, which is always a welcome bonus.

Outside, the south-facing garden gives you somewhere to enjoy the sunshine, while the terrace offers another spot to sit and unwind. Parking is a real plus, with room for several cars. The former garage has been converted into an arts and crafts room, currently providing a lovely space for hobbies and creativity. Depending on your needs, it could offer potential for a home office, studio or other use, or possibly be converted back into a garage, subject to suitability and any necessary consents.

And just when you think you've found everything, there's another hatch beneath the property, opening up useful additional storage space.

This is a home with a little personality. It's not trying to be a show home; instead, it offers generous proportions, practical features and some genuinely interesting quirks. If you're looking for a property with space to spread out, room to make your own and a few unexpected extras along the way, this one is well worth a look.
