Ref: LCAA5701 Offers Over £600,000 Ref: LCAA5701 Offers over £600,000 Furzupland, Kenwyn, Truro, South Cornwall FREEHOLD An architecturally striking detached period house in the countryside on the fringes of the Kenwyn area of Truro, enjoying complete privacy at the end of a very long driveway, with a triple garage, in about 6 acres of gardens and fields. A house of immense style yet of a manageable size including beautiful arched windows, gracious rooms with archways, exquisite hardwood arched doors and highest calibre kitchen and bathrooms, certainly with scope to greatly extend or even redevelop due to the fabulous setting and immediate proximity to Truro. 2 Ref: LCAA5701 SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Ground Floor: reception hall, cloakroom, bespoke kitchen with Aga, large Amdega conservatory, dining room, drawing room with marble fireplace and study area, rear hall, utility room, gym/cinema room/wine store. First Floor: landing, master bedroom with incredible marble en- suite bath/shower room, dressing room/bedroom 4, 2 further double bedrooms with marble en-suite shower rooms. Outside: long tarmaced driveway, integral triple garage, lawned gardens surrounding the house, granite terrace, various outbuildings, two paddocks with copse and far reaching countryside views. In all, about 6¼ acres. 3 Ref: LCAA5701 DESCRIPTION Furzupland is an incredibly desirable and absolutely unique residence only 1½ miles from the centre of Truro yet offering complete privacy with no near neighbours. The house is situated at the end of a long tarmaced driveway with an unassuming entrance, at the end of which a more imposing set of Cornish granite entrance piers open onto a further driveway, which sweeps past gorgeous borders and a low stone wall with mature trees before arriving at the house. The non-Listed house is surrounded by its own immaculate lawned gardens with a deep granite terrace outside of the conservatory and a sweeping granite pathway leading from the drive to the front door. To the north and west sides of the gardens are two fields in the ownership of Furzupland with both of these have far reaching countryside views and are shielded from the house by wooded copses adding to this magnificent environment. The fields are relatively level and would be ideal for equestrian use, with the whole running to about 6¼ acres. The house is believed to have been completed in the 1870’s and was built to a unique Regency design with stone and slate hung elevations, high arched windows and doors, buttresses, impressive lead work and an almost castle like feel. It is believed that the house was originally built for a reclusive shipping millionaire who could view the, then, Higher Lemon Quay and his arriving/departing ships from the master bedroom. It is rumoured that he used to keep the largest number of domestic staff in Truro and would not allow them to enter the first floor of the property. Under its current ownership Furzupland has been meticulously restored to its original design with detailed historical research down to the design of the early Victorian tiled hallway. All of the original arched doors have been reintroduced in Canadian walnut which has also been used for the drawing room and dining room floors, although it was deemed more appropriate to fit Italian travertine flooring 4 Ref: LCAA5701 to both the kitchen and conservatory with underfloor heating. In recent years two significant extensions have been added, comprising a spacious Amdega conservatory which opens into the garden and a broad triple car garage. The extensions have also allowed for the creation of a proper utility room and a gym/cinema room. LOCATION Furzupland is found to the north of Truro in the highly regarded parish of Kenwyn. Kenwyn is known as the most exclusive area of Truro with a mix of grand period homes and substantial modern houses along with a beautiful church and Furzupland is one of only a few properties in open countryside to enjoy this address. At the house it is difficult to believe that the centre of Truro is only 1½ miles away and that the best facilities within Cornwall are so near to hand. The surrounding countryside is mostly pasture and rolls downhill in either direction to the River Kenwyn to the west and to the east, the River Allen and Idless Woods where there are fantastic walks and mountain biking opportunities. The north coast surf beaches are 5 Ref: LCAA5701 also near at hand, with Perranporth being around a 15 minute drive away although there are an almost never ending array of different beaches, headlands and coves to explore. Around 15 minutes drive to the south are the sailing waters of the Carrick Roads which are known as some of the safest and most enjoyable in the United Kingdom with many creeks, villages and beaches to enjoy. There are moorings available at Loe Beach at Feock and marinas at Mylor and Falmouth catering for all sizes of boats. The cathedral city of Truro has all of the amenities that one would expect of the best served settlement to the west of Exeter. There are excellent business, commercial, shopping and schooling facilities in the city including three highly regarded private schools. Truro also boasts the main Royal Cornwall Hospital, at Treliske, The Hall for Cornwall theatre, a museum, cinema and a mainline railway station on the Penzance to Paddington line. Road links to Truro are excellent, as the nearby A30 expressway links Truro to the rest of Cornwall and to the motorway network at Exeter. Regular flights to London and other internal and international destinations are available from Newquay Airport, around 30 minutes drive away.

    Study 4978 Cornwall OnLine Census Project, 1891 This document was supplied by the depositor and has been modified by AHDS History Introduction THIS STUDY contains our [Cornwall Online Census Project] transcript of the 1891 census returns for Cornwall. It has been transcribed, checked and validated by the volunteers of the Cornwall Online Census Project, the Cornish arm of the Free Census project. The original records are held by The National Archives and this transcription is done with their permission. Image copies of the original returns can be viewed on film, fiche or CDROM from commercial suppliers and at many research facilities around the world. This study contains a full transcription of the 1891 census returns for Cornwall—a snapshot of the people and places of Cornwall on the night of April 5th, 1891. The file names are the PRO piece number code (without punctuation). About UK Census Returns About Free Census (FreeCEN) was started early in 2000 with a pilot project for the 1891 census returns for Devon. The aim of Free Census is to transcribe all the UK 19th century census returns. It is part of FreeUKGEN and is a sister project to FreeBMD and FreeREG. The intention is that all three of the UK primary sources for the family historian will be online and “free to view.” Six months after the Devon project started, the Cornwall 1891 commenced. Most English and Welsh counties are now covered for the 1891, with the Scottish projects concentrating on the 1841. There are several English 1861 projects, using commercially produced discs and two English 1841 projects, including Cornwall.

  • Out of Devon: the Eastlake Surname Comes Of
    Out of Devon: The Eastlake Surname Comes of Age Summary Beginning with an exploration of the origin and meaning of the Eastlake surname, the evolution of the name and its spread through southwest England is followed to the end of the 18th century. By that time, the name was sufficiently established to enable the global distribution seen today. A preliminary map of the surname’s evolution worldwide is presented. This paper was prepared for the Advanced One-Name Studies Course provided by Pharos Teaching and Tutoring Ltd and sponsored by the Guild of One-Name Studies. In the Beginning In 1377, Thomas Estlake’s oats were trampled in the Bratton Parish of the ancient Lyfton Hundred.1 Bratton Clovelly, the modern name for Bratton, is a small Devon village nestled in the southwestern peninsula of England. The area has a long history; ‘Baldwin’ the Sheriff held the manor of Bratton in 1086.2 Structures still stand today that my early ancestors might recognise. The Church of St Mary the Virgin has overlooked the village since Norman times and the area is still Figure 1. Bratton Clovelly 2011 characterised by substantial farmhouses, some dating from the early 15th century. The great Dartmoor rises just east of Bratton Clovelly. In later centuries, the natural resources of this strikingly rugged landscape would provide the livelihoods of Eastlake families as they moved from farming to mining occupations. It is not surprising to find several ‘East Lake’ farms in this part of Devon. However, one large ‘Eastlake’ dairy farm standing just a few miles from the village centre captures the imagination, set in an idyllic protected position amongst the rolling countryside.
