DESCRIPTION Tredinnick Barn is an imposing and impressive detached six bedroomed granite stone barn, with a natural slate roof that occupies an attractive, elevated rural position approached from a private road with panoramic far reaching southerly views over unspoilt farmland and countryside. The property has undergone a thorough and complete renovation and refurbishment programme that was completed in 2008 and has seen its rustic charm transformed and enhanced with an eye to quality and craftsmanship. It is rare to find a conversion of such quality and the only way a purchaser will determine this is to view the property internally.

The sumptuous 5/6 bedroomed, 4/5 reception roomed accommodation impresses from the moment of crossing the threshold. The U-shaped barn faces south providing frontal views over unspoilt countryside with a large, central raised paved terrace to the front. The front door opens onto a boot room which has bespoke cupboards, coat pegs and a hat stand supplied by Tenacity Interiors, who also furnished the kitchen. The floor comprises tumbled

All main reception rooms and bedrooms are fitted with Cat 5 computer/TV connection points, there is underfloor heating throughout the ground and first floors with individual thermostat controls for each room. All windows and French doors have white painted wooden framed double glazed units. The gravelled driveway approaches through twin opening timber vehicular gates accessing a large four bay stone, open fronted garage. There is a large gravelled hardstanding/parking area on one side of the barn providing access to a second barn/stables beyond which are the paddocks. The area around the barn is mainly lawned with raised paved terracing and paths surrounding the barn. The grounds extend to just over 13 acres with the remainder comprising paddocks. LOCATION Tredinnick Barn is situated amidst unspoilt countryside between the villages of Grampound and Grampound Road, both of which offer local shops, sufficient for everyday needs and both of which have inns. Grampound also has a luxury meat/fish shop, antique shop and restaurant whilst both have primary schools. The property has easy access to the A390 which links the major town of St Austell with Cornwall’s capital of Truro a few miles away to the south-west. Truro is the main administrative capital of the county providing a wide range of shopping, leisure and commercial facilities, private and state schools, out of town trading estates and supermarkets and private and national health hospitals. The mainline station at Truro enjoys a direct line link to London Paddington (approximate travel time 4½ hours). A short cut through the country lanes to Grampound Road provides a direct road link to the A30 which then remains largely dual-carriageway all the way to Exeter, joining the M5 to Bristol and A303 to London. Tredinnick Barn is perfectly placed to take full advantage of the wonderful countryside walks available along the numerous footpaths in the area whilst also having the beautiful countryside, rivers and coastal areas of the Roseland Peninsula just a short drive away. The Roseland Peninsula is a superbly unspoilt area with picturesque fishing and coastal villages including St Mawes on the Percuil River which offers a harbour and excellent sailing facilities. A more idyllic yet convenient position would be difficult to find.

The property is approached via a long, well metalled private road which accesses two properties with ‘Tredinnick Barn’ being the last property at the end of the lane. Two large five bar timber vehicular gates hung between timber pillars, open onto a gravelled driveway that runs along the front of the house providing access on the left to a large pen fronted GARAGE/BARN – 37’ x 21’. Open fronted with four vehicular bays divided by granite supporting pillars, high pitched vaulted roof with exposed A-frame trusses and a concreted floor with external power points and circuit breaker. The gravelled driveway then continues across the front of the house down to a large hardstanding area enclosed by walls and hedges on three sides, this area is gravelled and provides excellent hardstanding for numerous vehicles, boats, trailers, caravans, camper vans, or could equally act as an excellent holding area for livestock. At the far end of this area there is access to a:-
