Description

This adaptable smallholding presents a unique opportunity in a prime location between Falmouth and Helston, encompassing approximately 7.8 acres of land along with an array of outbuildings. Manhay Meadow Cottage is a detached three-bedroom residence that has been revitalized since its origins as two derelict cottages around 2015. The property features traditional construction under a pitched roof and includes attractive architectural elements such as exposed granite lintels and quoins coupled with partial slate hanging. Inside, the cottage offers a functional layout that includes an entrance hall, utility room equipped for laundry, and a dual-aspect kitchen/diner complete with integrated appliances. The living room, featuring a wood burner, opens up to a rear terrace that enjoys sweeping views over the grounds, making it ideal for outdoor entertaining. On the first floor, the master bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, while two additional bedrooms share a family bathroom. The external space features well-maintained gardens bordered by mature herbaceous plants and an old ruin, coupled with ample gravel parking suitable for multiple vehicles. The outdoor areas provide excellent potential for further landscaping or even installation of additional recreational spaces. The outbuildings include a large workshop/store and two barns which could be repurposed or expanded upon pending planning approval, thus offering substantial investment potential to create further living or commercial spaces. The surrounding fields are primarily pastureland with Cornish hedge banks and various possibilities for agricultural use or leisure activities. Overall, this smallholding not only serves as a comfortable family home but also stands as an appealing investment for those looking to develop land or facilities in this picturesque part of Cornwall.
