TRENOWETH MANORST KEVERNE, HELSTON, CORNWALL

An exceptional detached south facing non-Listed former manor house occupying an enchanting, tranquil setting in glorious unspoilt countryside close to the south Cornish coast and near the day sailing waters of the Helford River. A wonderful refurbished house, steeped in history with 5/6 bedroomed, 6 bath/shower roomed principal accommodation, two 2 bedroomed guest cottages and outbuildings. Beautiful gardens and grounds with woodland and enclosed fields, extending in all, to about 44 acres.

THE PROPERTY The sale of Trenoweth Manor provides an increasingly infrequent opportunity to acquire a highly imposing, important, wonderfully private and extensive period house originally constructed we understand in the 1400’s and extended in the 1920’s with the addition of an impressive drawing room and two bedrooms. The property is protected within its extensive gardens and grounds with the considerable and important benefit of two totally self-contained cottages which are believed to be converted from the old stables and are considered eminently suitable for holiday lettings.

By virtue of its very broad south facing orientation, the design of Trenoweth Manor logically ensures that every principal room commands very beautiful views over its delightfully tranquil and landscaped gardens and wooded grounds.

The exterior of the original part of Trenoweth Manor retains its largely maintenance free stone finish featuring numerous tall sash windows under a slate roof with the splendid addition being of white painted render under a slate roof with impressive central bay to the northern side.

The interior boasts rooms of impressive and generous proportions with an abundance of character and fine joinery including parquet flooring and decorative timber panelling to the drawing room, an impressive staircase, fireplaces to most principal rooms, panelled doors, high skirting boards, architraves, picture rails, exposed granite and slate flag stone flooring. Oil fired central heating is installed, served by two boilers, and there is an oil fired Aga in the kitchen for cooking.

The two cottages are situated to the northern side of the property across an area of sheltered lawn and could be utilised to provide income from holiday lettings or, or course provide ancillary accommodation for family members, teenage children or guests etc.

Accessed from the driveway are a number of outbuildings consisting of an open garage with light and power connected, a double garage with two sets of bi-folding doors and large loft storage area over, an additional workshop and gardener’s wc.

Trenoweth Manor benefits from beautiful landscaped gardens along with full width south facing sun terrace and grounds which include 10 enclosed fields, in all extending to about 44 acres.

A distinctly large yet nonetheless manageable, versatile, tucked away near coastal residence along with two cottages in a particularly desirable and unspoilt area of south Cornwall recommended, without hesitation, for earliest viewing by appointment through the vendor’s sole agent.

LOCATIONTrenoweth Manor is situated within one of the most unspoilt areas of Cornwall, enjoying beautiful rural surroundings that are within easy reach of the sea and coastline, including popular bathing beaches, beautiful coastal footpath walks and picturesque, coastal villages, such as Porthoustock, Porthallow, St Anthony and Coverack. This area is highly regarded by both locals and holidaymakers alike.

The nearby village of St Keverne provides for day to day shopping needs, including a post office, general stores, newsagent, health centre, church and pubs, while further facilities are available in the neighbouring village of Porthallow. Helston town is the nearest shopping centre, providing an excellent variety of high street shops, many of which are local family traders, combined with some of the larger national stores. Truro (the county capital) is approximately 28 miles away and offers an extremely wide selection of leisure, commercial and retail facilities. There is an excellent local primary school with the nearest secondary school being available in the town of Mullion.

Road. The A30 from the M5 at Exeter now provides a superb dual carriageway link to West Cornwall.

Rail. Regular intercity trains operate from Truro to London (Paddington) in about 4½ hours.

Air. Newquay Airport provides flights to London, the Isles of Scilly and a number of continental destinations. Plymouth and Exeter Airports provide further flights to the continent.
