SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Ground Floor: entrance hall, dual aspect living room with fireplace, south facing dining room, large Paula Rosa fitted kitchen/breakfast room, conservatory, cloakroom. First Floor: master bedroom with open views and large en-suite shower room, guest bedroom with southerly views, two further bedrooms, shower room. Outside: large single garage, private landscaped and well stocked low maintenance rear garden, small lawned front garden with steps leading down to the communal gardens. Use of the 42 acre private Estate that surrounds the property, including open lawns, woodland and a walled garden. DESCRIPTION The setting at Tehidy Park is an oasis of peace, tranquillity and seclusion for the residents of its small collection of properties built within this 700 year old Estate that was originally formed by the Basset family on the proceeds of the Cornish tin mining industry. Woodbury is approached along the main driveway into the Estate which snakes around the main house, before a spur off leads to the rear of this, and its two adjacent neighbours, the only three properties that form ‘the Hill Houses’. These three properties are in a unique position within the Estate, built on a high vantage point that gives glorious views over the grounds and the historic Estate buildings to open countryside and woodland beyond.

Woodbury is the largest of the three Hill Houses and has a most attractive twin gabled, symmetrical façade with multi pane double glazed windows and a central front door. More commonly approached from the rear, where the garage can be found as the centre one in a block of three, the property is approached through a high timber gate with fencing to either side over a landscaped, specimen stocked rear garden, which is overlooked by a large conservatory. The conservatory has a wing on one side that acts as a rear porch and from here a door opens into a spacious fitted kitchen/breakfast room which is also accessible from the main reception hall. The reception hall sits centrally within the house and all of the rooms radiate off it. To one side is a good sized dining room with two southerly facing windows looking out over the grounds. It would seem possible to combine the back to back kitchen and dining room to create a much larger open-plan space should this be desirable for an incoming purchaser to undertake, subject to building regulation approval. To the eastern side of the house is a dual aspect living room with a fireplace, that enjoys the same views as the dining room but also has a glazed doorway to the conservatory. The reception hall also gives access to a downstairs cloakroom, large store cupboard and the turning staircase to the first floor. On the first floor both the master bedroom, with its en-suite shower room and the secondary bedroom, enjoy elevated southerly views over miles of countryside and Estate land as well as built-in wardrobes and there are two further bedrooms and a family shower room on this level. Both the en-suite shower room and the family shower room have been recently refitted with large shower enclosures and power showers.

LOCATION Tehidy Park is a prestigious 42 acre private Estate encapsulating 52 differing homes, some created from the impressive main house and its outbuildings, some tastefully and recently constructed within the parkland grounds. The private Estate abuts the Tehidy Park Golf Course and Tehidy Country Club, whilst a 15 minute walk through the woodlands leads out onto the South West Coastal Footpath connecting some stunning clifftop scenery to the beaches and villages in either direction. Abutting the Estate is Tehidy Woods, a well known walking and cycling area that is open to the public, giving further beautiful surroundings to enjoy.

Well away from main roads and traffic, Tehidy Park is nonetheless immensely accessible to the A30 expressway which provides rapid and easy access around and out of the county with the M5 at Exeter at one end and Penzance/St Ives at the other. The Cathedral City of Truro is approximately 15 miles (20 minutes) away and is the County’s educational, commercial and retailing centre providing an excellent range of facilities including private and secondary schooling, national and local retailers, many restaurants and bars, the main hospital at Treliske and leisure facilities including The Hall for Cornwall, the County’s major music and theatre venue. Mainline rail services are available from Truro to London Paddington with a journey time of approximately 4½ hours and there are regular flights to London as well as many other internal and international destinations from nearby Newquay Airport. Magnificent beaches such as Gwithian to the west and Perranporth to the north are within a few minutes’ drive of Tehidy Park; the creeks of the south Cornish coast are also near to hand as are most of Cornwall’s main attractions and towns. Indeed Tehidy Park is perfectly situated for exploring this picturesque county.

OUTSIDE

The property is most commonly approached from the rear where a sweeping driveway leads around behind the three properties known as the ‘Hill Houses’. At the end of this driveway, behind the properties, is a block of three garages, of which No 2 owns the central one. GARAGE – 17’8” x 9’. Strip wooden fronted metal framed up-and-over door, vaulted loft space, power points, three ceiling light points, ample space for car parking and additional storage. A gate from the garaging and parking area opens onto a paved path which then leads to the door into the conservatory/entrance hall with the paving then continuing around the building. Beyond this are low maintenance gravelled gardens with planted beds at the edges and plentiful space for pot plants including broken slate feature areas. Around the edge of the garden are various shrubs including large camellias and ornate palms. To the front of Woodbury is a large open area of lawn that is tended by the grounds staff and is included in the maintenance charge for the Estate. Running along the top of this area of lawn is a granite chipped pathway that provides access to a flight of paved topped steps with a painted wrought iron handrail to one side that leads up a small bank of mown grass to the paved and canopied front porch. The front of the house is most attractive and formal with an almost perfect symmetry created by the two gables and matching windows to either side. The gardens are perfect for this type of house, being that they give privacy, shelter and seclusion as well as creating a beautiful immediate environment to look out on to that can be looked after with the minimum of maintenance whilst the expanse of 42 acres of the surrounding Estate is obviously at an owner’s disposal.
