We are delighted to bring to market this two bedroomed end of terrace Cornish cottage, situated in a popular rural hamlet between Redruth, Helston, Penryn and Falmouth and positioned as such, ensuring a good deal of privacy. Built in the 1800’s, this cosy property with a combination of wooden and tiled flooring throughout retains some original features such as open joist ceilings and historical fireplaces. On entry, there is a very useful double aspect entrance porch and thereafter, an internal door opens into the kitchen/diner with stairs to the first floor. The vendor has made best use available in terms of the kitchen layout. A door accesses the lounge/living room which has a multi fuel burner set in a traditional fireplace. Access is gained to the rear patio and garden from here. Stairs lead to a split level landing leading to bedroom 1 at the front of the property which has the added benefit of a built-in open access wardrobe with separate doored storage cupboards. A door opens into bedroom 2 which is positioned to the rear of the property. Both bedrooms are complemented by a family bathroom with sliding door access. Externally, there is a driveway off of the main access bridleway. We understand from the vendor that this is wholly owned by the property. At the end there is a hard standing area which would offer additional parking along with the aforementioned driveway. There is a wooden self-built outbuilding for storage which could be re-purposed, subject to the appropriate permissions. A door opens to the side of the main property which gives access to a utility area. From here, a door opens to the rear patio and access to the garden beyond. The rear garden is south facing and fully enclosed. There is a raised laid to lawn area and a rear gravelled area beyond, with mature borders all around. Heating at the property is via modern Gabarron electric heaters and a multi-fuel burner complementing double glazing throughout.
