Carnyorth, TR19

Aptly named, Chy Lowena (House of Joy), this handsome, detached three bedroom home sits looking toward the sea in good-sized gardens with plenty of parking, and a garage/workshop to boot. Refreshingly, this characterful property has a social, open plan layout downstairs, with a large living and dining space leading around into the very spacious kitchen. There is a full-size family bathroom on the ground floor across the entrance hallway. The dual-aspect living room has plenty of light, both from the window onto the garden and the large, sliding patio doors. There's a focal wood burner inset on a slate hearth for extra heat, though there is central heating throughout, powered by the coal Rayburn in the kitchen. The large, family kitchen offers fantastic space and it is easy to see what a cosmetic refresh could create here. A timber, stable door leads from the kitchen to the all-glass conservatory where you can see the sea over the Cornish hedge, and walk out into the rear garden which is entirely private. On the first floor, and off a central landing area, are three double bedrooms and a shower room, as well as an airing cupboard. There is a landing window which enjoys a sea view: much like two of the three bedrooms. Waking up in the large, master bedroom would be a joy, with fantastic views out to the coast from two large, inset windows with deep, tiled cills. The second double bedroom has a similarly impressive outlook and the same deep, tiled cills. Stepping outside, there is a cottage-style garden area to the front with some beautiful native shrubs and flowers. This is backed by a sizeable area of lawn, with apple trees, and hydrangeas that wraps around the cottage to the rear. The rear garden is exceedingly private and enclosed by Cornish hedging with some pretty trees framing a space that is very attractive.
