Gunnislake, Cornwall, PL18

'Wood House' is a quirky character cottage situated in the heart of Gunnislake, Cornwall. Originally a former Tea Room in the village, we believe the house dates back to approximately 1850. This stylish three bedroom cottage is deceptively spacious and offers plenty of accommodation on both floors. The property has been thoughtfully and tastefully restored by the current owners over the past 25 years with particular attention to detail over the original features including floorboards, tiling and doors. These features paired with modern touches like a freestanding log burner and double glazing make for a cosy and contemporary home with plenty of character.

You enter via an attractive composite door, into a vestibule then through to the hallway which has original Victorian tiling and stained glass door. To the right is the main sitting room which has shuttered windows and the free standing log burner, the length of the room allows for a dining table to be placed at one end, without infringing on your seating area. To the other side of the hallway is a cosy snug/dining room painted in heritage colours, with a bay window and another log burner. The kitchen/breakfast room is at the rear and is an equally interesting room. The vendors switched the layout to bring the kitchen in to the centre, giving a bright dining area with three windows opening out to the side. The kitchen was hand built locally, with bespoke oak units and a beautiful slate worktop with a matching wall mounted plate rack above the Belfast sink. There is some understairs storage as well as built in cupboards in the dining area, plus a useful separate utility room tucked away in the corner. Upstairs are three bedrooms, two of which are good size doubles with a large single bedroom. There are two storage cupboards off the landing and a family bathroom with shower over the bath. The two front bedrooms have some far reaching views over the nearby church and pine trees covering the valley.
