Description:

LARGE CHARACTER PROPERTY
Stylish and beautifully appointed house - part of a nucleus of similar interesting properties set in attractive wooded countryside.
South facing and with panoramic rural views across an area of great landscape vale.
Approximately 2800 sq. ft of accommodation.

Trenowth lies in wooded countryside on the slopes of the upper Fal Valley about nine miles from the city of Truro and six miles from St. Austell. The nearby villages of Grampound, Grampound Road and Coombe offer post office and shops for daily needs whilst both Truro and St. Austell offer a full range of shopping facilities with many of the national multiples. There is a good range of private and state schools in the area and both Truro and St. Austell offer an intercity rail link to London. Trenowth is less than ten minutes drive from the main A30 and therefore enjoys easy access to all parts of the county including north and south Cornish coasts.

Woodford House forms part of a nucleus of buildings which were formerly the buildings to the Trenowth Estate. They lie in reasonable proximity to some very old Grade II listed cottages which are believed to incorporate part of the 17th Century manor house. The buildings are of significant architectural merit and Woodford House has been remodelled and renovated in total sympathy and awareness of its surroundings. Indeed, the environment is quoted in the County Structure Plan as an area of great landscape value.

Internally, the property has tremendous character and features an abundance of exposed timber. This is a large property (estimated to be approximately 2,800 sq.ft) and there is an overwhelming sense of light and space. It is ideal for family occupation. All windows are purpose-made double glazed casements and a comprehensive system of oil-fired central heating has also been installed.
