Detached house for sale in Carrallack Terrace, St. Just, Penzance TR19

Description

In a prime position on one of St Just's more popular traffic-free terraces, is this most stunning, detached property packed with beautiful original features, front and rear gardens, off street parking and a garage that now serves as a garden room, office and storage shed.

Internally, this spectacular residence offers high ceilings, period features, large sash windows and accommodation over three floors - the top floor offering blistering views out to the coast and across to St Just town and church.

On the ground floor, off the tiled entrance hallway, are three large reception rooms (one currently used as a study), a downstairs WC and the good-size kitchen with additional utility. All principal rooms on this floor benefit from ornate coving, picture rails, original doors and the original door furniture. The kitchen is as timelessly-classic in its styling as the other rooms with a central, 4-oven, oil-fired aga complimented by granite worktops and some built-in storage cupboards.

To the first floor are three double bedrooms, a large single bedroom, a sizeable bathroom and a separate shower room - all off a generous landing. The two double bedrooms to the front of the property both boast impressive box-bay windows with tall, timber sash windows that look toward the sea, and one has the benefit of an ensuite shower room.

Upstairs again takes you to a second floor landing, off which are two further rooms; a smaller hobby room with a rooflight, and a fantastic large fifth bedroom that is in the eaves of the house with a dormer picture window offering views towards Cot Valley, Longships Lighthouse and across toward the town of St Just.

To the rear of the house, there is a granite-built workshop with mains power, some steps up to a formal path alongside a pretty lawned garden that is resplendent and well-stocked with a variety of specimen and native shrubs and plants. There is an elevated decked area for seating that leads in to a glazed garden room and all areas at the rear offer a high degree of privacy. There is an office space and additional store shed, in what was previously the garage for the property.
