Property Description
As the wrought iron security gates swing open Helford House has an imposing and impressive façade. The double opening front doors lead in to an equally impressive and very large reception hall with noteworthy high ceilings stone fireplace and oak staircase. This area can also work well as a very generous dining hall for special occasions. The bespoke Davonport kitchen/breakfast room is another very fine feature with a large central island, beautiful granite work surfaces and Miele appliances. As this area opens onto the family/dining space it creates a wonderful ‘hub’ for family life. There is a formal drawing room and also a garden room with bar which opens out to the terrace and swimming pool. Perfect for entertaining. In addition, there is a generous second floor media room with kitchenette, perfect for movie lovers or gamers.
On the first floor, the principal suite overlooks the gardens to the rear and there are 4 other bedrooms along with 3 more bathrooms on this level.
Immediately to the rear of the house is a full width terrace with steps leading down to the garden which is surrounded by mature trees and shrubs providing a great deal of seclusion. There is also a summer house with power and light which could work well as a home office or studio.
It is also worth noting that there is a very large basement (over 3,200sqft) which has not yet been fully fitted so offers an opportunity to design and create rooms to suit your own needs. It does already have secondary access to it with a self-contained staff annex. This area has not been included in the sqft calculations on the floor plan, so should be considered as a bonus.
