Description

This charming three-bedroom cottage, set within a generous 3.8-acre plot, presents significant renovation and investment opportunities. Situated conveniently between Helston and Falmouth, the property is not only accessible but also boasts additional land and buildings available for negotiation, enhancing its potential further. Originally redeveloped in 2015 from two derelict cottages, Manhay Meadow Cottage features traditional architecture with exposed granite accents. The layout includes an entrance hall, utility room equipped for modern appliances, and a dual-aspect kitchen/diner that invites natural light. The living room is complemented by a wood burner and opens onto a terrace area overlooking the expansive gardens and countryside—perfect for outdoor entertaining. Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to three well-sized bedrooms, with the master benefiting from an en-suite shower area. The property is fitted with PVC double glazing and oil-fired central heating. The exterior offers mature gardens with a natural pond and remains of an old ruin, creating a unique landscape to explore or develop. Ample gravel parking supports multiple vehicles or trailers, providing flexibility for additional projects or visitors. This property represents a notable investment opportunity in a peaceful rural setting while being close enough to local amenities, schools, beaches, and scenic walking routes in one of Cornwall's beautiful areas. With thoughtful refurbishment or expansion, this cottage could be transformed into an even more desirable residence.
