Penwith Cottage presents a unique opportunity for an investor or homebuyer looking to undertake a substantial renovation or potential redevelopment, subject to planning consent. Situated in the picturesque countryside on the outskirts of Haslemere, this family residence requires significant upgrades and repairs. The property is set on a spacious plot of roughly one acre, providing serene surroundings complemented by extensive gardens and beautiful elevated views.
The layout currently features a welcoming porch that leads into a grand double-height entrance hall with a prominent sash window and staircase. The primary living space is positioned on the first floor, optimizing the surrounding scenery through its large picture windows and an inviting stone fireplace in the main sitting room. Adjacent, a dual-aspect family room with sliding doors seamlessly connects to the garden. A dining area linked to a kitchen—currently out of order—adds potential for modernizing the culinary space. Additionally, there’s a versatile study opening onto the garden area.
On the ground floor, three bedrooms are configured along with a family bathroom and storage room. The outdoor space includes well-maintained lawns, mature trees, and various shrubs, culminating in an expansive gravel driveway leading to a detached garage and outbuilding/workshop.
Located conveniently close to Haslemere's vibrant amenities and recreational offerings such as walking trails at Blackdown and Woolbeding Common, this property combines tranquility with access to necessary facilities. Nearby reputable educational institutions enhance its appeal for families. With Haslemere Station merely 1.5 miles away offering services to London Waterloo in under an hour, this cottage embodies significant renovation potential in a desirable location.
