GENERAL COMMENTS

Thomas Cottage comprises a detached single storey property located in a quiet rural setting at Garvinack on the outskirts of Truro and within close proximity of Tregavethan, Shortlanesend and the A30 trunk road for quick commuting throughout the county. The property occupies a very large plot and enjoys fabulous views over the surrounding countryside. Planning permission has been granted by Cornwall Council to demolish the current property and replace with a larger two storey modern house that contemplates the plot and location very well. The proposed accommodation includes three bedrooms on the first floor, all have ensuite facilities. The ground floor includes a large kitchen/dining room, sitting room, study, utility room, cloakroom, entrance hall and porch. The sitting room and dining room will have bi fold doors opening into the rear garden where the views will also be very special. The plot is extremely private and enclosed within natural hedge boundaries. It extends to approximately 0.75 of an acre and includes garden and a small paddock. It enjoys a sunny aspect with fabulous views.

LOCATION

The rural community of Tregavethan comprises a mere handful of country properties sporadically positioned in a valley setting and lying north west of Truro. It is remarkably quiet and an unspoiled area and yet superbly located for access through to the B3284 connecting Truro with the main A30 trunk road. The city of Truro with its shops, amenities, Hall for Cornwall and historic Cathedral is just four miles away, north and south Cornish coasts are virtually equidistant and the nearby A30 gives easy access to all parts of the county. A main line railway link to London (Paddington) is located in Truro and an airport at St. Mawgan near Newquay has daily flights to London.
