Property description
The Fruit Gardens is a most appealing modern detached house of individual design and style, occupying a secluded and well enclosed non estate setting within the rural village of Penwithick, which lies some three miles to the north of St Austell, close to the world renowned Eden Project.
The accommodation is excellently presented in contemporary design and style, both practical and well proportioned and incorporating good standards of finish including a host of natural stained joinery to internal doors, skirting and architraves with a feature natural timber bannister and landing balustrade.
Secluded, beautifully stocked and presented gardens extend principally to the front and side, providing areas of lawn, paved patio, timber decked patio with shrub and flower border feature. These gardens are well enclosed with a gated approach to a brick paved parking hardstanding suitable for two vehicles. Garage with driveway approach providing further parking extends to rear.
