Sought-after semi-rural setting in Goonvrea, St Agnes
A wonderful opportunity to acquire a characterful home, coming to the market for the first time in approximately 40 years. Set within a generous plot of around a quarter of an acre in Goonvrea, the property enjoys sea and countryside views from the first floor and offers considerable potential for a new owner to make it their own.
The original part of the property is believed to date from the nineteenth century and has been extended over the years to create a surprisingly versatile home. Its combination of character, generous gardens and position makes this an exciting prospect, particularly for buyers looking for a property with scope to update and enhance.
The accommodation begins with an entrance porch/sunroom, leading into the hallway. The living room is a particularly inviting space, with a large bay window overlooking the gardens and a beamed ceiling adding to the character of the room.
The ground floor continues with a separate dining room, kitchen fitted with Shaker-style units and wooden worktops, shower room and separate WC. A further reception room provides excellent flexibility and could equally be used as a ground-floor bedroom, home office or additional sitting room.
Upstairs, there are two bedrooms together with a separate office. One of the bedrooms is enhanced by a bay window which takes full advantage of the property's elevated outlook, with views towards the sea and along the coastline towards St Ives, as well as across towards St Agnes Beacon.
Outside is where the property really comes into its own. Sitting within a plot of approximately a quarter of an acre, the established gardens have clearly been created and tended over many years. Mature shrubs and planting provide a wonderfully green and private setting, with areas traditionally used for growing flowers and vegetables leading through to a lawned garden. The size and maturity of the plot give the property a lovely sense of seclusion whilst also presenting plenty of opportunity for a new owner to put their own stamp on the outside space.
The property is approached via two driveways and also benefits from a garage, providing useful parking and storage.
With its Nineteenth century origins, flexible accommodation, substantial established gardens and first-floor sea views, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a long-held home in Goonvrea with significant potential for modernisation and improvement.
