## Description

Situated in an enviable location partly surrounded by trees, this is a well presented family home that certainly does warrant an inspection.  To the first floor there are four bedrooms with the master en-suite and also a well equipped family bathroom. To the ground floor there is a cloakroom, a lounge/diner, a kitchen/breakfast room and a laundry room.  There is a loft ladder leading to a partially floored space with three velux windows.  There is a focal fireplace in addition to the oil fired heating and the property is double glazed with swept sash windows.  To the ground floor open beams have been used to give a cottage feel and there are French doors leading to a covered patio area.  Very well presented by the vendors, it has parking for several vehicles and an amazing garden which we understand stretches to a third of an acre.  It has many shrubs, plants and trees together with lawns, barbeque and patio areas, a greenhouse, a substantial shed and a side store shed.  The rear boundary looks down onto the Tolskithy Valley. This part of West Tolgus has a few select homes and it is a no-through road.  Access is given to bus services in Broad Lane, shopping facilities in Illogan and of course access to the A30, Redruth town and the north coast at Portreath which is within approximately three and a half miles and on the way you will find Tehidy Country Park and the golf links.

Stairs lead to the first floor with an understairs cupboard and there are French doors to the rear.  Wall lights, two radiators and an open joist ceiling.  Glazed double doors to:

OUTSIDE  To the front of the property there is parking and turning for several vehicles with steps leading down to the front door.  The plot itself is approximately one third of an acre and is beautifully set out being screened at the bottom by many established trees.  There are lawned areas, steps leading to patios, a barbeque area and there is a small copse to one side.  The gardens are well appointed with many shrubs and flowers and in our opinion are a very important feature of the property.  There is a fruit cage and outbuildings include a GREENHOUSE 2.43m x 1.82m (8' x 6'). SMALL SHED 1.82m x 1.21m (6' x 4') and a modern WORKSHOP 4.57m x 2.43m (15' x 8'). The whole plot is secluded, well enclosed and as previously mentioned does look down to Tolskithy Valley.

DIRECTIONS From our office in Redruth take the main road towards Camborne turning right opposite ATS Tyres into Chariot Road.  Follow this through into Broad Lane and over the A30 flyover.  Just past Broad Lane chapel turn right into West Tolgus and follow this road for approximately three quarters of a mile and there is a small sharp left turn where you will see straight ahead a private road.  Follow this down and the house will be found on the right hand side.
