SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Ground Floor: garden room - 30’6” x 8’, entrance hallway, lounge - 24’8” x 12’4”, dining room, kitchen, utility room/office, cloakroom and wc. First Floor: landing, 5 bedrooms, bathroom, separate shower room, study/storage room.

Two greenhouses and a detached garden implement store. In all, approximately ¼ of an acre. DESCRIPTION Manacle View is a detached five bedroomed residence, thought to be Edwardian, set in generous, well stocked gardens within an elevated position that affords the majority of rooms, far reaching views over miles of unspoilt countryside, towards the Manacles and the open ocean beyond, not far from the secret, sheltered and little known Godrevy Cove beach. The proportions of this house are perfect for the larger family with an excellent level of living and sleeping accommodation with plenty of potential to create further bedrooms and bathrooms or living space out of a large attic room which would enjoy, perhaps the best views in the house if converted. The accommodation retains many delightful period features whilst having been tastefully modernised over the years. The spacious rooms on the ground and first floors benefit from high ceilings plus with the main reception rooms and bedrooms enjoying the best of the countryside, sea and coastal

views. The house is set back from the road and a majority of the garden lies to the rear of the property comprising large lawns, flower/shrub beds with mature trees, raised vegetable beds and numerous flowering shrubs. LOCATION Manacle View is situated just outside of the picturesque, near coastal village of St Keverne on the beautiful and ever popular Lizard Peninsula. The house is approached from a quiet country lane which can provide swift access to several serene coves and beaches as well as miles of some of the most unspoilt coastline in the county. The Lizard Peninsula itself is sought after due to its unspoilt nature which provides a distinct area of old Cornwall. St Keverne village provides an excellent array of day to day amenities including a shop, post office, butcher, newsagent, grocery store, two local inns, doctor’s surgery and pharmacy plus its own primary school with secondary schooling available in the nearby coastal village of Mullion which also has a lovely coastal golf course. The village also has a monthly farmers market. Helston to the north is the nearest major town providing a wide array of leisure, commercial and retail facilities and is famous for its annual ‘Furry Dance’. The nearby Helford River provides a scenic playground for pleasure boat and sailing enthusiasts alike. Mainline station connections are available from the towns of Redruth or Camborne to the north or the counties capital city of Truro to the north east, all of which provide a mainline connection direct to Paddington with approximate travel time of 4½ hours. Truro has an excellent retail base and is popular for its eclectic mix of high street shops, extensive leisure and commercial facilities and the Hall for Cornwall which hosts a wide variety of musical and theatrical performances throughout the year. From Helston there are excellent cross county roads which link with the A30, Cornwall’s main arterial road, which remains largely dual carriageway all the way to Exeter where it joins the M5 to Bristol and the A303 to London.
