DESCRIPTION

Boscreege is a very interesting and rather unusual opportunity created, developed and lovingly improved over a number of years by the current owners who bought the home as a redundant gun club. The site, which extends to about 5 acres, has been massively changed and improved in the current ownership and this includes the planting of over 1,000 trees!

The accommodation itself is arranged over two levels with a lower ground floor comprising hallway, cloakroom/wc, spacious laundry/utility room and integral garage and a very large workshop extending to about 16m x 4.8m. The living accommodation is at upper ground floor level to take in the lovely outlook and views over the countryside, gardens and out towards Mounts Bay and the coastline and sea. There is a spacious central hallway with a 3 Ref: LCAA7352 large L-shaped living room which encompasses a lounge and opens to a kitchen/dining room. This area has sun decking around both sides and takes in a super outlook. There are four bedrooms, the master has an en-suite shower room and a balcony off it, two further bedrooms have a Jack and Jill en-suite shower room between them and there is a further double bedroom and further family bath/shower room. This very spacious accommodation is particularly light and airy due to its elevated position and good sized windows and patio doors throughout.

Boscreege is located at the end of a no-through lane and from this there is a gravelled driveway, leading into the garaging and workshop areas at lower ground floor level. Adjoining the driveway is a very productive vegetable plot which is enclosed.

The gardens are an absolute delight and testament to the significant effort and energy of the current owners in creating and maintaining the area. There is a very significant area of lawn with a central pond bounded by banking to one side in which the owner has planted hundreds of trees. 4 Ref: LCAA7352

5 Ref: LCAA7352 The banking borders farmland to two sides and walkways and seating areas have been created to enjoy not only the very far reaching countryside views but more significantly the exceptional outlook over the countryside to the south with iconic St Michael’s Mount, coastline and sea views beyond.
