Description

Coming to the market for the first time, Trelaske Lodge, located in Lewannick, Cornwall, is a charming Grade ii-listed building with a rich history. Constructed in 1842, the architect responsible for its design remains unknown. The lodge showcases a picturesque Gothic Revival style, seamlessly blending into the surrounding landscape. It is constructed of snecked stone on a moulded plinth, with granite dressings, and granite quoins to the front elevation. The pitched roof is Delabole slate with crested ridge tiles and has decorative timber bargeboards with pendants at the corners and in the apexes. The pointed arches, delicate tracery, and ornate finials evoke the Romantic spirit of the 19th century, seamlessly blending with the natural beauty of the surroundings.

One of the remaining properties of the historic Trelaske Estate, the main entrance leads into a well-lit sitting room (bay window to the front and window to the side) which has an exposed stone wall opposite containing an inglenook with a timber lintel and cloam oven, a slate hearth and woodburning stove. From the sitting room, at the right-hand end of a hallway is a small kitchen (probably formerly a larder or pantry) which has four substantial meat hooks to the ceiling, a slate flag floor and a recess with a timber lintel fitted with a Rayburn (included in the sale but with no guarantee of condition). At the other end of the hallway is a further reception room with a slate flag floor, window seats and external entrance door to the rear. The timber staircase leads off the hallway to the first floor.

At the top of the stairs to the left is a bathroom with bath, WC and wash hand basin. There are two double bedrooms with exposed eaves, panelled timber doors to the same pattern as the ground floor. A slate hearth remains in one bedroom.

The grounds comprise a front, side and rear lawn, with side path leading to the parking area (unregistered land used for over 20 years for vehicular parking).

Details of the mains electricity supply, oil fired central heating, private water and drainage can be found in the legal pack.
