Description

Nestled on approximately three acres at the edge of Bodmin Moor, this detached three-bedroom cottage presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Surrounded by breathtaking countryside views, the property boasts extensive outbuildings, including stables and a large garage, making it an attractive prospect for those looking to enhance or repurpose existing structures. Accessed via a long private driveway, the home greets you with a spacious front conservatory that captures picturesque views of the moorland and fields beyond. The ground floor features a generous kitchen/dining area equipped with a Rayburn and ample space for family gatherings. Adjacent is a charming living room characterized by exposed stonework and a substantial wood burner, adding warmth and character to the space. A well-sized four-piece bathroom suite completes the ground level, along with an additional rear conservatory that leads out to the garden. On the upper floor, you'll find three bedrooms accessible from a central landing—ideal for family living or potential reconfiguration based on your plans. The surrounding land offers variety, including extensively laid lawns bordered by mature plants and several seating areas strategically positioned to enjoy the scenic outlook. The property is complemented by multiple outbuildings: in addition to the detached garage and versatile sheds, there’s a stone structure housing a WC as well as stables containing three loose boxes. These outbuildings hold significant potential for conversion into additional living spaces, work studios, or even rental opportunities—subject to obtaining necessary planning approvals. A private water supply alongside private drainage facilitates self-sufficient living in this rural setting. Located on the outskirts of Temple, residents benefit from direct access to the A30, providing convenience for commuters while being surrounded by an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This combination of features makes it an ideal investment for those interested in both developing their dream home and exploring income-generating opportunities.
