This charming four-bedroom cottage, nestled within approximately two acres of diverse outdoor space, presents a compelling opportunity for renovation and investment. The property features a mix of vibrant gardens, tranquil woodlands, and a paddock, accompanied by several versatile outbuildings that enhance its potential for various uses.
Located just a short drive from the well-regarded village of Stithians, this cottage offers convenient access to Falmouth (7 miles) and Truro (9 miles), making it an appealing choice for those seeking both rural tranquility and urban amenities. Stithians itself hosts essential local services including a general store, a pub, a doctor's surgery, and a picturesque parish church. Additionally, the village is known for its annual agricultural show, which draws large crowds and fosters community spirit.
The property likely dates back partially to the 17th century and has been thoughtfully maintained by the current owner for around 23 years. It comes with no onward chain, allowing for a straightforward transition to new ownership. Inside, you will find charming character elements such as exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace complemented by a wood burner in the spacious sitting/dining room. The flexible layout is ideal for multi-generational living or can be adapted to suit various lifestyle needs.
The ground floor comprises an entrance hallway, utility room, kitchen, large sitting/dining room, two cloakrooms, a shower room, one bedroom, and a snug/study area. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms along with a family bathroom.
Outside, ample parking is available alongside a double garage with an attached greenhouse. The extensive grounds include useful structures such as a tractor shed and workshop. A summer house or chalet provides additional recreational space while the Koi pond adds charm to the garden setting. The traditional cottage gardens feature numerous specimen shrubs along with areas of lawn that invite gardening enthusiasts to cultivate their green thumb.
Notably, there’s potential to repurpose some outbuildings (subject to planning permissions) into additional living spaces or income-generating units. One such feature is a former piggery attached to the cottage that could be transformed into a self-contained annex connecting to the ground floor bedroom and shower room.
This property stands out not only for its idyllic location but also for its vast potential—whether you're looking to create your dream home or invest in a property with multiple avenues for enhancement.
