Description - Stags Truro are thrilled to present to the market this bespoke and quite specialist property where appearances definitely are deceptive. Throughout the home no expense has been spared to create a user friendly living space for those with mobility, sight or specialist needs. From initially entering the property a sense of great care and thoughtful planning is evident, not to mention very little consideration to cost.
The property has been extended at the rear to create a delightful garden room, with large windows and a high level ceiling providing a light and airy space to relax and view the garden. Much of the ground floor is Amtico hard flooring for ease of cleaning and the windows have been replaced with contemporary UPVC double glazing with integrated Venetian blinds and there is a contemporary styled composite front door.
The kitchen has been refitted to a super specification to include a full sized integrated Neff oven with a Neff combination grill/oven/microwave above, 6 ring flexible induction hob set into a Dekton worksurface and the stainless steel sink has a Quooker hot tap. There are ceiling spots and under-cupboard LED downlights. From the kitchen there is a concealed passenger lift with smoked glass frontage to blend into the stylish kitchen.
On the first floor the original configuration has been redesigned to offer convenience and a practical purpose. From the lift you arrive in the landing where the three bedrooms are located and also an upstairs laundry/ utility room plus a larger than average family bathroom. Additionally there is a hatch providing access to the fully insulated loft space.
This property offers a unique opportunity with internal viewing considered essential for the discerning and conscientious buyer seeking a user friendly home.
Outside - To the front there is a private drive providing off street parking for two cars. The integral garage has an electric door, electric points, a cold water tap and also a hot water cylinder for the newly installed mains pressure water system which now provides an extremely powerful shower.
