    About this property

    • The property was once part of the six great estates of Hayle, with the Bodriggy family estate stretching back as far as 1181, before Hayle proper came into being. The current house was built in 1718 on the site of an earlier property and then is thought to have been divided by two sisters in around 1728. It was also once owned by Merchant Curnow who helped to develop the Copperhouse area of Hayle in the mid 1700s. The part Savills are selling was extended in the Victorian period, as such, is a mix of both Georgian & Victorian architecture with corresponding features.

      Ground Floor-
      From the driveway steps lead up to a paved area which in turn leads to the front door. The front door opens in to a large dual aspect lobby with tiled flooring and ample space for outerwear etc. A pair of glazed doors then open in to the wide, spacious and bright main hall off which all the ground floor rooms lead along with the staircase to the first floor. To the left is the spacious lounge with a high ceiling and stripped wooden flooring, two sash windows overlooking the front garden, a marble fire surround with a recessed log burner and original cornicing. Double doors open from the lounge into the formal dining room, again with a sash window overlooking the front garden, stripped wooden flooring, original cornicing and large bespoke bookshelves with cabinets beneath. A door from the dining room opens in to the main hall with immediately to the left a large cloakroom WC with a terracotta tiled floor and large storage cupboard. To the right of the front door there is access to the breakfast room, kitchen and utility room. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with polished limestone tiled flooring, Neptune cupboards and units which include a large larder cupboard, a central island with breakfast bar, an integrated floor to ceiling fridge and a separate floor to ceiling freezer, oven, microwave, 4-ring induction hob with ceiling mounted extractor fan and light, space for a dishwasher and a 3-oven Gas Aga, granite work surfaces and a double Villeroy & Boch Belfast sink overlooking the rear courtyard. The breakfast room is through a wide opening and down a couple of steps from the kitchen and has stripped pine flooring, an open fireplace (not working) and French doors out in to the garden. This is a large room with plenty of space for both a dining table and sofas for relaxing with family or friends. At the rear of the room is a section of Minton tiles which lead to the door into the main hall. The entrance to the utility room also has a Minton tiled area leading to limestone flooring in the utility area itself.
