Description
A detached three bedroom cottage in a rural yet convenient location, offering scope for further improvement and set within a total plot of approximately 0.43 acres.
• Detached cottage
• Three bedrooms
• Rural setting
• Generous plot of approximately 0.43 acres.
Location
Menerdue Farm occupies an attractive rural position between Carnmenellis and the village of Stithians. Stithians is approximately two miles to the north by road, while Rame Cross is a one mile drive south.
The property is conveniently situated within walking distance of Stithians Reservoir, a well-known local amenity offering wildlife interest and opportunities for outdoor recreation, including fishing and a range of watersports.
There are a number of public footpaths and bridleways in the vicinity, providing excellent access to explore the surrounding landscape. The area will particularly appeal to those with an interest in walking, riding and countryside pursuits.
Local amenities are provided by nearby villages, with a wider range of shopping, schooling, employment and transport facilities available in Penryn, Falmouth, Redruth, Helston, and Truro. The location therefore offers a good balance of rural seclusion, while remaining accessible to a number of nearby towns and the coast.
Description
The property is known as Menerdue Farm Moore and comprises a detached three bedroom cottage. It was partly refurbished in 2024 and offers scope for further improvement. Prospective purchasers should note that there is evidence of damp and water ingress in some of the rooms.
The cottage (lot 2) is one of two properties currently being offered for sale on the farm. A five bedroom farmhouse with adjoining barn and further agricultural buildings (lot 1) is also available separately.
The cottage is believed to be of traditional stone construction, with elevations finished in a combination of uPVC cladding (wood effect) and pebble-dashed render. It has a slate roof and benefits from uPVC double-glazing throughout.
On the ground floor, the accommodation comprises front and rear entrance hallways, a kitchen/diner, a living room and a shower room. On the first floor, there are three bedrooms.
Externally, the gardens extend around all elevations of the cottage. A further small paddock area adjoins the garden to the northeast and is also included in the sale.
Overage
The additional paddock area included within Lot 2 will be subject to an overage clause, payable on the grant of planning consent for any use other than agricultural or equestrian use. The overage will be calculated at 25% of any increase in value and will apply for a period of 80 years from completion.
Tenure
Freehold with vacant possession upon completion.
Services
The cottage is served by a shared borehole water supply, with a shared mains water connection providing a back-up supply. The property has oil-fired central heating, mains electricity is connected, and drainage is to a private septic tank. The drainage system is not believed to comply with the General Binding Rules 2015. Prospective purchasers should make their own enquiries and take this into account when considering the property.
Wayleaves, Easements & Rights of Way
A public footpath runs north over the shared access track used to access (and lying adjacent to) the cottage.
Boundaries
The purchaser will be obliged to erect and maintain a stock proof fence along the northeast and southeast boundaries (between points d-e-f) within 3 months of completion of the sale.
