DESCRIPTION A delightful detached cob cottage occupying a generous plot of approximately 0.4 acres, enjoying far-reaching rural views on the edge of the sought-after village of St Kew. In need of some updating, the property offers three en-suite bedrooms, extensive gardens, useful outbuildings and excellent potential for ancillary accommodation, the property presents a rare opportunity in a highly desirable North Cornwall setting.
ACCOMMODATION The property is approached via an entrance porch leading into a reception hall, from which the principal accommodation flows. The attractive triple-aspect sitting room is a particularly light-filled space, centred around a fireplace with a wood-burning stove and enjoying French doors opening directly onto the gardens. The separate dining room features a traditional stone fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove (currently not in use, with the chimney capped).
The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units incorporating an integrated oven and hob, together with a sink unit and space for under-counter fridge and freezer appliances.
On the first floor, a landing with built-in storage cupboards serves two generous double bedrooms, each benefiting from en-suite facilities, one with a bathroom and the other with a shower room. Both bedrooms, together with the landing, enjoy delightful far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.
The third bedroom is arranged separately and benefits from a modern en-suite shower room together with an adjoining utility room. Subject to any necessary consents, this area offers excellent scope to create self-contained ancillary accommodation, ideally suited to multi-generational living, guest accommodation or potential income generation.
OUTSIDE The property is set within generous south facing mature gardens, thoughtfully divided into a series of enclosed lawned areas with established shrubs, trees and a variety of seating areas from which to enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
A substantial workshop is complemented by an adjoining outbuilding with power and cloakroom facilities, offering flexibility for use as a home office, studio or hobby space.
