Description

This substantial five-bedroom family home presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment in the scenic hamlet of Rose, just a mile from the popular coastal resort of Perranporth on the north Cornish coast. Set within a generous plot of approximately 0.6 acres, the property features well-maintained gardens and a versatile detached garage that offers potential for further development, making it an ideal candidate for those looking to create additional living space or rental opportunities. The house itself boasts over 2,500 square feet of adaptable living space. Entering through a block-paved courtyard, you are welcomed into a spacious cloakroom that leads to a bright open-plan kitchen and dining area characterized by its vaulted ceiling and large picture window. The kitchen is equipped with modern appliances, providing a solid foundation for customization according to personal taste. Adjacent to this space is a comfortable sitting room with high ceilings and French doors that open out to the rear garden—a great feature for those who appreciate natural light and outdoor connectivity. On the ground floor, alongside multiple bedrooms—including a master suite with en-suite facilities—there are additional areas that can serve diverse purposes such as playrooms or home offices. A wooden staircase ascends to a galleried landing that connects two more double bedrooms, one of which offers captivating views over the paddock and surrounding countryside. The outdoor spaces are equally impressive. The large rear garden provides ample room for children’s activities, while an expansive lawned paddock enhances the property's appeal. The detached garage has been transformed by the current owners into a gym but holds great potential for conversion into self-contained accommodation or studio space, subject to necessary planning permissions. Nestled off a quiet country lane yet within close proximity to local amenities, this property offers an excellent balance between rural tranquility and accessibility to coastal life. Nearby Perranporth features an array of shops, cafes, and recreational facilities including its renowned beach—a major attraction for residents and tourists alike. With plans underway for new educational developments in the area, investing in this property not only promises immediate comfort but also future growth potential. In summary, this home combines functional living with remarkable investment possibilities in an appealing location that captures the essence of Cornwall's countryside and coastline.
