DESCRIPTION
• Completed in late 2015/early 2016 as a one off, individual architect designed home. Boasting spacious accommodation arranged over three floors with up to five bedrooms or alternatively, using what is known as the Chapel Room on the top floor as a further sitting room, enjoying panoramic countryside views from a near full gable of windows with fitted shutters.
• The arrangement of the accommodation is truly versatile and it has been suggested that the accommodation could be split to allow the ground floor to be used independently as a small granny annexe/apartment with the upper two floors easily considered as an independent three bedroomed ‘house’. Alternatively, the current arrangement as one large home with plentiful ancillary accommodation works perfectly for our clients.
• What cannot be truly appreciated from any photograph is the vista on offer from this elevated position, there are panoramic countryside views for many, many miles enjoyed from the front elevation of the house, and from the artificial turfed roof terrace garden which is over the large garage. In front of the property is found brick paviour driveway parking for several vehicles in addition to the large garage and to the rear of the house can be found a low maintenance gravelled terrace with planted borders and high mature hedged boundaries.
• Situated on a quiet lane outside of the heart of the village with very little passing traffic yet within walking distance of the facilities on offer.

LOCATION
Meadowsweet is perfectly positioned for those who work in any one of Cornwall’s main three centres at Truro, Falmouth and Redruth, with Helston and Camborne also being easily accessible. The A30 expressway is only a few miles to the north and this runs throughout the spine of Cornwall making journeys to anywhere in the county an easy affair. The A30 then links to the motorway network at Exeter bringing the rest of the country within striking distance. About half an hour’s drive away is Cornwall Airport Newquay at St Mawgan from where there are regular flights to London as well as many other internal and international destinations.
Redruth has the full range of services expected of one of Cornwall’s major towns, including a mainline railway station on the Penzance to Paddington line with trains to London taking around 4½ hours. The train also passes through Truro which is Cornwall’s capital and only city. Truro has many national retailers along with local boutique shops set amongst its Georgian and Victorian streets with a Marks & Spencer flagship store overlooking Lemon Quay piazza. Truro also has three private schools, a theatre, a multi screen cinema (as do Redruth and Falmouth), trading estates and the county’s main hospital. Falmouth, to the south, is a port town that opens into the mouth of the Carrick Roads and has a lively atmosphere throughout the year with many sailing regattas during the season. Falmouth is a university town with campuses at both Woodlane and Tremough with links to Exeter University. There are obviously a full range of boating facilities in Falmouth and nearby Mylor where there are yacht harbours. There are beaches around Falmouth and to the north are the surfing beaches that stretch along the coast from St Ives to Perranporth. The surrounding area is renowned for cycling along the Coast to Coast Bissoe Trail and also for horse riding amongst the many public tracks through Cornwall’s heritage mining landscape. Meadowsweet is exceptionally well positioned, approximately 7 miles distant from both Perranporth and Falmouth, to enjoy both Cornish coasts.
