We are very pleased to bring to market this most welcoming, detached three bedroom cottage with good parking, situated in the historic village of St Day and close to local amenities. Updated considerably by the current vendors, including the addition of solar panels, a new kitchen and a second side aspect porch, this is an opportunity to own an historical Cornish cottage, originally built around 1780 and of which the name refers to an historical blacksmiths. A good sized front porch leads into the lounge/living room/diner which has a substantial raised focal fireplace set in an original surround, accompanying raised corner features and stairs to the first floor. A door leads through to a convenient downstairs double bedroom albeit the new owners may wish to repurpose to a dining room. There is a good sized family shower room which is fitted with aqua board tiling. There is a utility room adjacent which then leads onto a well presented galley style kitchen with modern Wickes Metzo work surfaces, integrated cooking appliances, and a large pantry cupboard with sensor lighting. Access can be gained to the garden via the new side aspect porch. To the first floor, two double bedrooms are accessed from the landing. Externally, a generous tarmac driveway offering parking for up to three vehicles is further complemented by an off road parking space which is sited to the right as you look at the property. The three quarter wraparound garden has an insulated summer house/hobbies room and a large work shed. Furthermore, the rear section is in a partially courtyard style. In terms of location, there are many local amenities in the village within short walking distance including two convenience stores, a Post Office, butchers, pharmacy and a public house. There is also a second public house nearby, in the hamlet of Vogue, St. Day, which is within a seven minute walk. The centre of Redruth can be reached in a few minutes by car. Further afield, both Falmouth and Truro are equidistant and can be reached in around twenty five minutes or less by car. The coastal town of Portreath, with its beach and access to the South West Coastal Path, can be reached in less than twenty minutes by car whilst the largest area of woodland in West Cornwall, Tehidy Country Park along with Tehidy Park Golf Club, are within a similar distance. The property location is also within proximity to many other North Cornwall coastal towns as well as other surrounding attractions being easily accessible. There are bus services and it is also worth noting that there are many local walks to be found around the St. Day area.
