Description

Nestled in the charming and lesser-known village of Crowntown, this two-bedroom semi-detached cottage presents a valuable opportunity for those looking to invest in a renovation project. Currently in need of refurbishment, the property has recently received planning permission for a single-storey side extension, allowing for further expansion and customization according to personal preferences or market demands. The exterior features generous garden space that envelops the cottage, providing both lawned areas and a rich selection of plants and shrubs—an encouraging canvas for gardening enthusiasts or landscape designers. Internally, the layout includes a welcoming hall that leads into a cozy lounge with original details such as beamed ceilings and an inviting fireplace. The adjoining kitchen/diner opens out to the rear garden, offering potential for modern updates while retaining its rustic charm. A convenient shower room is also located on the ground floor, with two bedrooms positioned upstairs, each benefitting from ample natural light and appealing views. Crowntown itself is experiencing growing interest due to its semi-rural setting. The location allows easy access to both the north and south coasts of Cornwall, renowned for their stunning beaches and scenic walking routes through beautiful countryside. Moreover, it is conveniently situated for quick connections to major roads like the A30 and is within reach of larger towns including Truro, Camborne, Redruth, Helston, and The Lizard Peninsula. This property not only offers immediate renovation potential but also resides in a community poised for growth. With planning permissions recently granted in surrounding areas as well—further enhancing investment prospects—the home represents an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to capitalize on both residential comfort and future value enhancement.
