3 Ref: LCAA6393 DESCRIPTION

Rustwood House is an extremely appealing country home situated approximately 11 miles from Truro and 4 miles from St Austell and providing excellent family accommodation with the added benefit of the potential to create almost two separate units internally, the master bedroom being accessed from its own staircase from the inner hallway. One is introduced to the property via an entrance hallway leading to a generous character sitting room with decorative ceiling beams and feature fireplace. A further inner hallway with staircase to the master bedroom suite and from the formal sitting room a door leads to a large, bright further sitting and sun room area. From the main hallway a further door leads to the modern fitted kitchen with a range of cottage style units and character separate dining room with exposed stone and substantial granite fireplace. There is also a third hallway from the utility room and ground floor wc. There are four first floor bedrooms, three of which are accessed from the main staircase and share a family bathroom.

As well as character the property has the benefit of an exceedingly light and spacious feel, complemented by Georgian style uPVC double glazed windows and Propane gas fired central heating.

A driveway and parking area with space for at least five vehicles leads to the detached garage with up and over door. The south facing gardens provide a delightful backdrop being almost totally level with two sweeping areas of lawn surrounded and interspersed with well stocked borders and has a good degree of privacy.

A welcoming family home in a convenient country lane location and offered for sale, in our opinion, at an extremely realistic price.

LOCATION

Situated in a country lane location but easily accessible to the main road linking Truro and St Austell which are respectively 11 miles and 4 miles away. Hewas Water is a sought after area and St Austell, being the nearest town, has recently undergone a major development programme expanding the commercial and retail facilities offered. There are also out of town supermarkets and trading estates, sports clubs, two well regarded secondary schools, the renowned St Austell Brewery and three nearby golf courses at Polgooth, Duporth and the cliff top course at Carlyon Bay.

Hewas Water offers easy access to the south Cornish coast, including the picturesque fishing village of Mevagissey with its attractive inner and outer harbours housing a huddle of period fisherman’s cottages and associated stone buildings. Other local attractions include The Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project. There is access via the A390 to both the A38 and the A30, both of which remain largely dual carriageway all the way to Exeter where they link with the M5 to Bristol and the A303 and M4 to London. To the west lies Airport providing daily shuttle flights to Gatwick and an increasing number of European and domestic destinations. The south Cornish coastline is nearby, having fantastic beaches including Porthpean with its own active dinghy sailing club and further beaches at Carlyon Bay, Charlestown, Hemmick and Gorran Haven.
