Mainline rail services are available at Bodmin Parkway connecting to London Paddington via Plymouth. Access to the A30 can be gained at Bodmin connecting the cathedral towns of Truro and Exeter.
Description
An Koth Skol, meaning ‘The Old School’ in Cornish, is a distinctive detached period residence, thoughtfully converted in 2009 from the former St Issey School, originally constructed in 1867. Built of traditional Cornish stone, the property successfully combines character features with modern-day comforts, retaining an abundance of original charm including vaulted ceilings, arched church-style doorways, original fireplaces and impressive windows which flood the interior with natural light.
The Property
The accommodation is both versatile and well-proportioned, with several external access points. The principal entrance opens into a welcoming porch with built-in storage cupboards and doors leading to both the sitting room and the open-plan sitting/dining area.
The two principal reception rooms provide excellent entertaining and family living space, each centred around attractive fireplaces fitted with wood-burning stoves. The open-plan sitting/dining room is particularly impressive, offering a sociable and flexible living environment with built-in base units, a Belfast sink, freestanding island and space for a refrigerator.
The remainder of the ground floor benefits from limestone flooring throughout and comprises a well-appointed kitchen fitted with a range of wall and base units, Belfast sink and integrated appliances including an eye-level oven and grill, electric hob, dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. In addition, there is a cloakroom and a study, which offers potential for use as a fourth bedroom, with the cloakroom presenting an opportunity to create an en-suite facility if required.
From the main living area, a staircase rises to two double bedrooms and the family bathroom. A second staircase, accessed from the sitting room, leads to a further guest bedroom with en-suite shower room, providing an ideal arrangement for visitors or multi-generational living. All three bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes, while two also enjoy useful eaves storage.
Outside
The property is approached via double entrance gates which open onto a private driveway, providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles. The gardens extend around both sides of the property and have been thoughtfully arranged for ease of maintenance, being predominantly laid to gravel with an attractive selection of raised flower and vegetable beds adding seasonal colour and interest.
A generous decked terrace, complemented by a pergola, provides an excellent space for outdoor entertaining and al fresco dining whilst enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
