THE GARDENS AND GROUNDS

One of the appealing features of Higher Pentire House’ is that the south-facing elevation and majority of gardens and grounds cannot be seen from the entrance driveway.The entrance driveway is located to the side and rear of the house and provides off-road parking for numerous cars with the most commonly used entrance into the side hall on the eastern side of the house.This driveway is bounded by stone walling in part with a raised border and with, at the far end, a well stocked plant border.To the northern side of the house is a rear courtyard with up-lighters and granite external steps leading to a door at half-landing giving access to the accommodation.

Steps descend to the western side of the house where a door opens into the boot room with a pathway continuing through an archway to the front, southern side which is principally laid to lawn with an area of stone sets’ providing a walkway across the front of the house with a large shaped stone step, beyond which is original stone walling with a well stocked shrub and plant border.The area of lawned garden immediately in front of the house is well maintained and opens out into the former paddock which has been planted along the eastern boundary with a carefully chosen selection of maturing shrubs, plants and trees.The paddock abuts open countryside and, at the western boundary is a footpath down to Loe Pool.

FIELD SHELTER/GARAGING - about 30’ x 20’.Principally of timber construction on a concrete base with light and power connected. Central recess with double doors to either side providing useful garaging or garden implement storage.The oil tank is located behind the field shelter.

There is also a rarely used secondary entrance driveway providing additional off-road parking space from which a stone-chipped pathway leads through further beautifully well stocked and established deep shrub and plant borders with stone steps leading back down to the south-facing level lawned garden in front of the house, or alternatively to an attractive patio area laid with Indian sandstone.

In all, about 4.1 acres.
