Description

This unique property offers a rare opportunity for those interested in rural living and potential investment. Set within approximately 4 acres in the peaceful hamlet of Belowda, this detached three-bedroom cottage comes with considerable renovation possibilities. The property includes various former farm buildings, notably a two-storey barn that has been granted planning permission for conversion into a secondary dwelling, making it ideal for multi-generational living or rental income. Bramble Cottage features an entrance hall, two reception rooms, and a kitchen on the ground floor, complemented by three bedrooms and a shower room upstairs. Both front and rear gardens enhance the appeal of this home, alongside useful storage provided by several stone outbuildings. Additional amenities include a static caravan on site, allowing for immediate accommodation during any renovation work. The gently sloping paddock also adds to its charm and versatility as a small holding. Although the property requires modernisation and upgrades—especially to the water system—it presents an excellent canvas for creative renovation efforts in an area known for its natural beauty and proximity to both north and south Cornish coasts.
