Large family house in peaceful valley location
Built in 1990, Well House stands out from the traditional architecture of the hamlet with a style that is more Mediterranean than Cornish. Four wide arches form the front elevation and support a large, wraparound balcony, taking advantage of the splendid countryside view.
Consequently, the living areas are on the upper floor. Wide stairs lead to an extensive galleried landing and the spacious reception rooms. The dining room is large enough for entertaining around a large dining table and is decorated very traditionally. The hall extends to a guest cloakroom and to the kitchen and breakfast room facing west and the lovely view across the valley. Fully fitted with plenty of storage and with integrated appliances, doors open onto the balcony where there is generous space for al fresco dining.
The sitting room is next, with a wide picture window to the west. Glazed double doors open to a conservatory, glazed on three sides and with doors to the balcony.
Downstairs are four bedrooms. The principal bedroom, a large double with floor to ceiling wardrobes and an en suite shower room, has a picture window overlooking the front garden and driveway. Along the hall is the family bathroom fitted with a spa bath. Next is a room currently used as a study and office, with the boiler room adjacent and a back door to the rear garden. A single bedroom also overlooking the rear garden is opposite two double bedrooms overlooking the front, with one opening into the other. An inner hall leads to a fitted kitchen and a shower room, beyond which is a second door to the rear garden and the connecting door to the garage, added in 2004, spacious enough for a two vehicles and extensive storage.
A wide drive bordered by secure Cornish hedges sweeps up from the lane to the front of the house, where there is space for a few cars to park. The garden is attractively landscaped with mature flowering shrubs and trees, terraced lawns, three ponds with a little bridge over and a decorative well. Paths to either side of the house lead to the sheltered rear garden where a very wide decked patio stretches along the east aspect of the house, a nice spot to enjoy the morning sun. Paved ramps and steps rise to the lawned upper terrace and in the corner, a chalet style summer house, with electricity. Also, there is a secure garden store, and easily accessible outside taps, compost bins and oil tank.
