Description

Treviskey Cottage is an unspoilt three bedroom detached period property dating back to the 19th century. It has a wealth of character features and is thought to have originally been two cottages, due to the presence of the inglenook fireplaces in both the living room and the dining room. The property has been extended in more recent times, with the addition of the kitchen, porch and sun room. It has also been modernised installing uPVC double glazing and oil fired central heating. The generous, level plot of circa 0.16 acres has attractive gardens, a gated driveway with ample parking for several cars, garage, carport, greenhouse and an old stone shed.


The Views:

All three bedrooms at Treviskey Cottage enjoy beautiful rural views over the countryside and further out towards Veryan Bay. The sea views stretch along the coastline from Dodman point towards the National Trust owned Nare Head and Gull Rock, and further out over the open sea.


Internally:

The entrance porch leads from the driveway into the kitchen. While the property has been very well maintained over the years, it would benefit from some modernising. Leading off the kitchen, the dining room has beautiful period features including a stone inglenook fireplace with slate hearth and clome oven, beamed ceilings and period wood panelled doors. A hallway leads off the dining room which has doors to the conservatory, bathroom, living room and a staircase rising to the first floor. The living room is a delightfully cosy room also with an inglenook fireplace with an inset log burner, clome oven, slate hearth and feature slate lintel. The sun room which is south-facing has large windows overlooking the beautiful garden. The shower room is well equipped and comprises a shower unit, low flush WC and vanity basin.


On the first floor, the staircase opens onto the landing which has doors leading to the three bedrooms. Bedroom one, a generous dual aspect double, has far reaching rural views and benefits from a vanity basin. Bedroom two is also a good-sized double with vanity basin, and stunning rural and sea views over Veryan Bay. Bedroom three is a smaller double with built in storage and views over the garden and beyond out over the countryside.


Externally (Plot Size circa 0.16 acres):

Approached from the road, a timber five bar gate opens into a large driveway with parking for several cars. The detached garage has an up and over door, a workshop area and has power and light connected. To the side of the garage is a high ceiling car port, perfect for storing boats, a horse box or other vehicles.


The gardens to the rear and side of the cottage are predominantly laid to lawn, and feature some attractive borders and hedging, including a Cornish stone hedge. Tucked in the corner of the plot is a wonderful old stone outbuilding with a pitched slate roof which has power connected. There is also a good-sized greenhouse for those with a keen eye for gardening.


Summary:

This individual period property is located on a quiet country road within walking distance of an array of wonderful coastal walks. Situated in a quiet location, with parking facilities, surrounding mature gardens and desirable views, Treviskey Cottage has enormous potential, subject to any relevant consents, to extend and modernise, creating a generous size family home. An early appointment to view internally is strongly advised.
