THE PROPERTY

Glenville House has had few owners since being built around 1900 by highly respected builder John Trethowan for a Mr & Mrs Roberts. Son Michael Trethowan was left in charge and apparently in his father’s view, his son was taking too long to choose the stone to use. Michael was fond of the daughter of the man having the house built. apparently he was told that if he made a good job of building the house, he would be allowed to marry his daughter. They married so one assumes a good job was done! Most recently Glenville House was home to a discerning lady who has lived locally in some of the finest houses around the village. Recognising advancing years she chose this as a special place to live, tucked away yet so convenient for walking to village amenities. The house is set within a delightful, large and landscaped garden, accessed via French doors from living rooms and the ensuite downstairs bedroom. There are four bedrooms and three stylish living rooms with good proportions, high ceiling and lightness flooding through. The kitchen is fitted with cream cupboards and complete with an electric Aga and belfast sink. There is a delightful ‘feeling’ within and outside at Glenville House, and a quality that’s difficult to find. Access onto the Lane is a little tight but easy when familiar, leading to a parking area for several cars, a timber garage and buildings including a lovely old stone outhouse.

THE LOCATION

This substantial village house is remarkably situated at the centre of constantine village, tucked away a few paces from the pub and shops yet without passing traffic and road noise. Its access is discreet set along a short drive off Fore Street, culminating at Glenville House. From here, a path and ‘nip’ takes you to Bowling Green and beyond to a blissful walk to Polwheveral Creek on the Helford River. Constantine is a thriving and popular village with an active community and great everyday facilities which include a well-regarded primary school, two village stores, one specialising in wine and spirits, a church, together with two village pubs - The Queens Arms and the excellent nearby Trengilly Wartha Inn, as well as a doctors' surgery. The village is a sociable place too, with a farmer's market, numerous societies and clubs and an increasingly popular community centre called The Tolmen Centre, offering a variety of events. The village is rural and unspoilt, lying within easy reach of Port Navas creek as well as being on a daily bus route to Falmouth harbour town and Helston market town (approximately 6 miles each).).
