Description
Penwarne, a stunning Georgian country house, is nestled in extensive gardens overlooking Falmouth Bay in Cornwall. With a rich history dating back to 1313, the property has been meticulously cared for and developed over the centuries. The current house, built in the late 18th century, is a classic example of Georgian architecture, with symmetrical stuccoed elevations, sash windows, and a hipped slate roof. The interior features high ceilings, classical proportions, and many original features, including mahogany panelled doors, decorative plaster ceiling cornices, and fireplaces with marble surrounds. The property has been modernized while preserving its period character and charm. The gardens, recorded by the Cornwall Gardens Trust, are a true delight, featuring a walled garden, glasshouse, kitchen garden, and a heated swimming pool. The grounds also include an enclosed hard tennis court and a stone building with WC and shower. With planning permissions in place for an orangery and other enhancements, Penwarne is a truly unique and special property.
