3 bed end terrace house for sale

Fore Street, Penponds, Camborne TR14

We are delighted to bring to market this end of terrace three bedroomed character cottage, ensuring a good degree of privacy given its location in a no-through road in the heart of the village of Penponds, a popular residential location yet within easy reach of the local town. There is the added bonus of a separate standalone garage with room for one vehicle inside and parking for one vehicle immediately in front. This is a short walk away from the property. With both owned solar panels and air source heating, this home is most warm and welcoming with a number of standout character features. It would now benefit from the next chapter in its history, ideally retained as the traditional cottage home as it has been by the current vendors.

On entry, there are engineered wood floors throughout the hallway and lounge/living room, the hallway being half wood panelled. The hallway also has the added bonus of a recently installed downstairs toilet, in effect neatly fitted in to the understairs storage area. This is a Saniflo compact cisternless WC with a wash hand basin. The lounge has a multi fuel burner set on a slate hearth, in a recessed brick fireplace with a decorative wooden surround, all in front of an exposed Cornish stone feature wall. The kitchen still retains the original slate flooring and the storage units are presented in a u-shaped format. Straight edge work surfaces are accompanied by metro styled tile splashbacks. There is an integrated Creda double oven and grill with a hidden microwave cupboard above along with a Cata integrated induction hob. There is space and plumbing for both a dishwasher and washing machine. In the dining area, there is a lovely wood burner set on a slate shelf within a traditional Cornish fireplace alcove. There are pleasant views that look out onto the rural landscape to the rear. Stairs to the first floor reach a quarter landing where a 90 degree right turn up the remaining stairs to the landing which has a recently skimmed and painted ceiling along with a built-in full height storage cupboard. Bedroom 1 has storage both over bed and to the sides. There is also a continuation of the exposed Cornish stone feature of the living room. Both this bedroom and the third bedroom are carpeted but we are advised by the vendor that the original floorboards remain under the carpet. The second bedroom to the back of the property also has the exposed Cornish stone feature with French doors that open to a Juliette balcony. There is a new sub floor in this bedroom with engineered wood flooring. Furthermore, this bedroom benefits from very pleasant views both over the rear garden and the rural landscape to the south east beyond. All three bedrooms are complemented by a delightfully rustic style bathroom with lovely ceramic floor tiles. There is a whirlpool bath with the added bonus of a separate shower cubicle with a retro style thermostatic shower. From the bathroom, one also benefits from the very pleasant views over the rear garden and rural landscape beyond.

Externally, the front door opens directly onto the pedestrian pavement. The rear garden houses the air source heat pump and there are traditional walled borders to the side and rear. Mature trees including magnolia, plumb, grapes and wisteria are present and there is the added bonus of a summerhouse with lighting and power which has been used as a home office by the current vendors but could be repurposed to a pure summerhouse or as a hobby room. The vendor has advised of the following; a new flat roof to the rear extension, that extension having been added in the 1980’s and also the chimney has been repointed.

In terms of location, the town of Camborne with its multiple amenities is within two miles and can be reached on foot in around twenty five minutes or via a short drive.
