Lanvean, St. Mawgan, Cornwall, TR8

PROPERTY: Superbly presented with a stunning kitchen, good sized sitting room, lovely rural views and a large plot, this is an ideal family home. The original front door has largely been surpassed in use by the newly created entrance which features an attractive oak frame portico. A full height, two storey side extension has allowed the creation of a nice sized entrance hall. There is a separate utility room with toilet and a study to the rear. The views over the Lanherne valley and village from this office are distractingly good. The large kitchen/dining room is very well appointed and sits in the heart of the home. A large preparation island provides plenty of storage as do the matching wall and base mounted cabinets. A dark grey Silestone Marengo Quartz worktop sits over the cabinets and houses a Belfast sink. A Fisher and Paykel double drawer dishwasher, stainless steel American fridge freezer and an electric Aga which can be Wi-Fi controlled are the latest in Kitchen appliances. The kitchen has pantry style cabinets to hide away microwaves etc. and there is a built in wine rack. There is ample space for a good size breakfast table for family dining. Sliding pocket doors open into a sitting room with a feature wood burning stove on a slate hearth with an attractive timber lintel above. The double glazed window overlooks the garden. The house has a near full height lower ground floor which results in the main living area being elevated which helps to make the most of the views. A glazed porch is a nice spot to sit and overlook the garden. An attractive staircase leads up to the four bedrooms of the house. The master bedroom is a good size and has a stripped pine floor and a beautiful period appropriate cast iron radiator. This room has the benefit of a fully tiled en-suite shower. There are two further double bedrooms and a single room which is currently used as a dressing room. The extension provided the opportunity to add a double bedroom and a large family bathroom where grey porcelain tiles define both rooms. The family bathroom has a freestanding stone bath, a large walk in shower and full height tiling. A vaulted ceiling gives grandeur to the room and a Velux skylight provides plenty of natural light. Outside the south and west facing lawned garden wraps around the house. A stunning pergola with a gravelled patio below creates a beautiful al-fresco dining area. There is a patio next to the house where double glazed doors lead into the lower ground floor. This space is loosely divided into two rooms and while it is currently used for garden storage and a plant room, it doesn't take too much imagination to see this space as a potential gym, music studio, office or further living accommodation. To the eastern side of the house there is a large, gravelled parking area for up to six cars. There is also a secondary lawned garden with a large garden shed. The Planning permission (PA19/03891) which allowed the extension on the house also included allowance for a timber frame and slate roof car port to be built and an adjoining home office. This is a beautifully presented home which should be viewed to be truly appreciated. That is sits in one of the most vibrant north coast villages surely adds to its appeal. SURROUNDING AREA Being above the village provides peaceful open countryside views from the house garden and patio. The village life of St Mawgan is an easy walk away at the bottom of the lane.
