SITUATION
Situated in an individual position just to the north of the popular village of Coombe, Selsey House offers a private property within attractive rolling countryside between Truro and St Austell.

Selsey House is ideally situated to access both north and south coasts of Cornwall and there is also a junction onto the A30 (T) about 5 miles to the north.
DESCRIPTION
The approach to Selsey House is over a private driveway leading to a car parking and turning area from which there is a drive and steps up to the house and its attractive double fronted Edwardian facade. Standing in a superb position overlooking its own land with fields and woodland beyond, Selsey House presents a fine, spacious family home with quality ground and first floor accommodation, a wonderful front courtyard and decked area for parties and al-fresco living, attractive views, a useful outbuilding, an outside office with potential perhaps for conversion to further accommodation subject to all necessary consents, a front pasture field, views and a block of deciduous woodland.
