Kerensa is a stunning barn conversion with 3 bedrooms in the main barn and a one bedroomed self-contained annex currently being run very successfully as a holiday cottage (to view details of the annex go to .holidaycottages.co.uk and enter the property code KEREN).
The barn comprises reverse accommodation with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, dining room, kitchen, laundry room and a 23 foot living room with log burner and a galleried office above. Exposed beams feature in all rooms downstairs. The large garden is well stocked and very low maintenance with 2 sheds, a spacious deck area, barbecue area with lighting and beautiful far-reaching views over the countryside.
Kerensa is half a mile from the very popular village of Lanlivery and is within easy reach of many of Cornwall’s popular tourist destinations such as the Eden Project (3 miles). It is located with 2 other properties which together form the tiny hamlet of Treganoon. Accessed via a no-through road the property offers peaceful countryside accommodation. The property sits in an elevated position enjoying distant, uninterrupted views towards Helman Tor and the Saints Way.
Front access to the property is through the porch and the hall leading to the downstairs accommodation comprising the following:
Kitchen: 15’ x 15’ (4.5m x 4.5m) with cream wood cabinets, built-in fridge, freezer, dishwasher. Large rangemaster cooker and granite topped island. One and a half granite sink/drainer under window to front of property and french windows provide access to deck and garden. Farmhouse style table provides ample room for informal dining. Equivalent fully boarded loft space above provides excellent storage.
Dining Room: 11’ x 16’ (3.33m x 4.82m) with window to front of property and stairs to first floor and living room.
Main Bathroom: 12’ x 7’8" (3.66m x 2.34m) comprising white suite throughout. Roll top bath and separate large double-base shower with tiled floor and radiator with heated towel rail.
Bedroom 1: 12’1" x 14’5" (3.68m x 4.40m) Spacious room with 2 windows overlooking rear garden and neighbouring countryside.
Bedroom 2: 8’1" x 16’ (2.46m x 4.82m) A double bedroom with en-suite shower room. This room also has access via the laundry to the garden deck area and again has ample fully boarded loft space above ideal for storage.
Laundry: 4’2" x 8’5" (1.4m x 2.6m) with access to the rear garden.
Apart from the main bedroom all the rooms downstairs have tiled floors.
First Floor Accommodation:
Living Room: 16’2" x 23’ (4.95m x 6.9m) Spacious living room with window and door access to front via old ’granary steps’ to front and far reaching views over the beautiful neighbouring countryside. The wooden flooring is double tongue and groove boards imported from Bavaria. A log-burner provides a cosy focal point in the winter and is fitted with a back-boiler. Fitted wooden stairs provide access to the gallery above currently used as an office but could be an additional bedroom:
Gallery: 16’2" x 5’6" (4.95m x 1.68m) with ample sockets and phone line. The gallery is cleverly designed not to impact on the floorspace below in the living room.
Bedroom 3: 8’6" x 13’ (2.64m x 3.96m) Accessed from the living room with a velux fitted window.
The barn has been fitted out to a very high standard and provides comfortable modern living in a traditional setting. The heating and hot water are supplied from LPG but are supplemented with electric underfloor heating in some downstairs areas together with the log burner and its back boiler. It is heavily insulated throughout and in most areas lighting is low wattage, providing a very efficient building.
Broadband is available and has been in use for some time. The property has a response security system with PIRs, deadlocks and door switches to satisfy insurance requirements.
Council Tax Band - D for the main residence and the annex is banded separately for business use.
