2 bed terraced house for sale

South Road, Stithians TR3

The property

What a treat to find a delightful stone village cottage with a remarkably large and lovely rear garden, set opposite Half Moon Woods - a wonderful amenity owned by the Woodland Trust and providing acres of woods and a streamside meadow to enjoy.

Pendennis has been the much loved home to the current owners who have lived here for over 45 years, enjoying the village life and community.

The cottage is set nicely back from the road and with the great advantage of a large parking bay and landscaped and lawned garden, over 60’ deep.

Pendennis is reached through a UPVC double glazed and decent sized modern porch, into the sitting room with its beamed ceiling and open, stone surround fireplace. Beyond here is the dining room, shower room and kitchen, together with a flexible room suited as a single downstairs bedroom, work from home office or whatever suits.

Stairs lead up to the two bedrooms, the main a generous double overlooking the front garden and beyond to protected woodland and fields beyond. One wall is a bank of fitted wardrobe and cupboard space, part of which houses the propane gas-fired boiler. The second bedroom overlooks the rear decked terrace and garden.

Everything here is beautifully kept and looked after, fine tuned over the years by the owner who is a joiner by profession. The solid oak fitted kitchen has a stable door to a useful side porch and accesses and overlooks the rear garden.

And what a joy that is! To say it is unexpected is an understatement, with an overall plot of 0.17 acres in all, it provides a peaceful, natural and delightfully established space that spans two cottages and is well over 100’ deep. There are mature trees here, an expanse of lawn, summerhouse and potting shed together with a superb, raised timber terrace, workshop and store.

All in all, this is a real ‘find’ for the right buyer and an instruction we are delighted to be selling.
