Description
Off a pretty wooded road connecting Grumbla and Sancreed, is this incredibly delightful converted stable/tack house that offers one bedroom accommodation, parking, and garden space. Having been run as a successful holiday let, the property is now available to purchase; and would make an idyllic home for anyone looking to downsize.
The property has a paved patio to the front for seating, and a further grassy area that has previously been used as parking, but that would make a wonderful garden being bordered by Cornish hedging.
Inside, on the ground floor, is an open-plan sitting and dining room with the stairs leading up in one corner. The space is heated by a multifuel stove that sits centrally on one end wall and will surely heat the whole property once lit. There are exposed granite feature walls, as well as exposed beams to the ceiling - so lots and lots of character!
The kitchen is compact, but for a property of this size it has space for all essential kitchen appliances, and you then continue through to a little lobby area with a built-in storage cupboard, and on to the bathroom.
The stairs lead up to just one room: A double bedroom with semi-vaulted ceilings and a length of glass rooflight windows that flood the stairwell with natural light, as well as two smaller windows that offer lovely peaceful views out from the bedroom space.
The property is pretty unique, and is in a beautifully leafy and serene spot within 5 minutes drive of St Just and just 10 minutes of Penzance.
