THE PROPERTY
Recently refurbished to a high standard, Grasshoppers offers spacious and flexible accommodation set across a generous footprint. The main residence comprises a well-proportioned four-bedroom home, thoughtfully extended by an adjoining one-bedroom annexe—ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or potential rental income.
From the entrance hall, a wide corridor leads into the bright and spacious sitting room, where large picture windows frame views of the garden and invite natural light to flood the space. This in turn flows into a generous dining area and a sleek, contemporary kitchen. Fitted with a stylish range of base and high-level units, the kitchen also features a central island offering additional work surfaces and breakfast bar seating—perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. From the dining room, sliding doors open directly onto a rear patio, further connecting the indoor and outdoor living spaces.

Three well-proportioned guest bedrooms are located along the main corridor, all serviced by a smartly appointed family bathroom. The principal bedroom is set apart and enjoys a walk-in wardrobe and a modern en suite shower room. Off the entrance hall, there is also a cloakroom and useful storage cupboard.
A connecting garage/storeroom links the main house with the annexe. The annexe itself has its own entrance hall leading into an open plan sitting/dining room, with a neatly fitted kitchen set to one side. There is a comfortable en suite double bedroom. Making this space perfect for extended family, guests or to be used as income potential subject to the relevant permissions.
OUTSIDE
Grasshoppers is set within a large and private plot, offering generous gardens and ample parking. The rear garden provides a peaceful and sheltered setting, with a paved patio ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining. The established grounds offer plenty of space for children to play, or for those with a passion for gardening to further landscape and enhance. The garage/storeroom provides additional storage and connects seamlessly with the annexe, offering further flexibility for a variety of uses.

Situated in the desirable hamlet of Penelewey, Grasshoppers enjoys a peaceful countryside setting while remaining within easy reach of some of Cornwall’s most celebrated destinations. Just over a mile away lies the vibrant village of Feock, with its scenic waterfront, sailing opportunities, and access to the National Trust’s Trelissick Estate—perfect for weekend walks and picnics with panoramic river views.
The cathedral city of Truro is only 10 minutes away by car, offering excellent schooling, independent shops, restaurants, and mainline rail links to London Paddington.
