Built in the 1970s by a local builder, this superb family home of over 2000 sq ft (191 sq m) is situated in the heart of Mawnan Smith.

The entrance is approached through a pretty courtyard and the front door leads into a stunning light-filled, open-plan kitchen and dining room which has been recently updated with a brand-new kitchen. An incredibly light room, with large, sliding patio doors into the garden on either side, this is a fantastic room for cooking and entertaining family and friends.

A hall with a built-in coat-cupboard and airing cupboard leads down to the sitting room, two large double bedrooms and a shared, modern shower room.

The south-facing sitting room is exceptionally spacious, with stairs to the first floor at one end and, at the other, an archway through to a semi-circular sunroom with French-windows opening out onto the terrace and garde. A wood-burning stove at the centre and large picture windows with glorious green views make this a beautiful room to relax in.

The downstairs shower room has a corner shower enclosure with a mains-run shower and double shower head. There is a sink with mixer tap inset to a vanity unit and a WC with push button flush. The room is attractively part panelled and has waterproof shower panels in the wet areas.
