This expansive Georgian residence is situated in a serene and sheltered location near Hancock's Creek, presenting a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant renovation potential. Set within approximately 1.25 acres of lush, mature grounds, the home features captivating views of the gardens, water, and adjacent countryside, while benefiting from close proximity to open farmland of the Mount Edgcumbe Estate. While the house retains many charming period details—such as elegant fireplaces, staircases, and paneling—it currently requires thoughtful updating and modernization to fully realize its potential as an exceptional family home in this desirable area.
Upon entering, you'll find a welcoming porch that leads into a spacious hallway with access to generous living spaces. The main living room extends over seven meters and boasts a dual aspect view of the gardens. The dining room at the front features a bay window and direct access to a wine cellar—ideal for hosting formal gatherings. The kitchen/breakfast room is outfitted with traditional cabinetry alongside an Aga-style cooker but would benefit from modern upgrades. A connected utility room adds practical workspace, while a conservatory offers versatility with adjoining wet room access.
The first floor comprises four well-sized bedrooms around an ample landing with built-in storage. The master suite includes an en-suite bathroom fully fitted for comfort. The family bathroom on this floor also features access to a sauna—adding a unique wellness aspect that could be revitalized.
The second floor offers additional flexible living spaces including a loft bedroom complete with en-suite facilities and another loft area that serves as potential office space or extra accommodation.
Outside, the extensive grounds are approached via a sweeping driveway and include various outdoor features: large lawns, established trees, serene gardens with stream and pond elements, plus a walled garden which contains an inviting swimming pool area. Parking is plentiful with off-road options available leading to an oversized garage/workshop that could potentially serve as ancillary accommodation pending appropriate permissions.
Millbrook village provides essential amenities along with beautiful surroundings including parks and nearby beaches—a perfect blend for those pursuing peace without sacrificing connectivity to local life.
