DESCRIPTION
Detached on an elevated plot in a highly desirable location, this remarkably well-preserved Victorian property offers buyers splendid sea views, off street parking and a garage as well as front and rear gardens with some outbuildings.
The entrance hallway is typically spacious with the tiled floor in tact and doors off to the two front reception rooms; both of which have bay windows with sea views and central fireplaces that have been fitted with gas fires. To the rear downstairs is the third reception room with an open fireplace as well as a kitchen and a utility laundry room.
Up the original curved stairway, you have a WC on a part-landing with original stained and etched glass panels, and a full landing off which are three large double bedrooms and a family bathroom with original timber cabinetry. The views to the front are some of the best that can be found in a house that is still just a short walk in to town and on a clear day it is possible to see the Isles of Scilly on the horizon.
To the rear is a sloped lawned garden with a wash house, back house, storage shed and outside WC. There is a rear gate leading to a lane where some off street parking can be found. A pathway leads around from the back garden to the front garden which again is lawned and sloped with symmetrical pathways leading to the central gate giving access to Carrallack Terrace where there is a garage and parking for one car at the front.
