Situated in a lovely rural setting on the outskirts of the historic villages of St Day and Chacewater, the property enjoys a peaceful position surrounded by mature trees, beautiful countryside and views across the valley. The immediate surroundings are particularly appealing to those who enjoy the outdoors, with quiet country lanes, woodland walks and routes popular with walkers, cyclists and horse riders.

The property is particularly well placed for access to the Bissoe Trail and the wider network of mineral tramway trails, offering miles of walking and cycling routes through some of Cornwall’s most attractive countryside. These routes pass through wooded valleys, former mining areas and open countryside, with connections towards Portreath on the north coast and Devoran on the south coast. Despite its rural position, the village of St Day is close by and offers a good range of everyday amenities, including a primary school, village shops, a post office, public houses, a doctors’ surgery and community facilities. St Day and Carharrack Primary School is particularly convenient for families, while the village retains a strong sense of community whilst Chacewater also has a gp surgery, a range of shops/Post Office, public house and schooling for younger children.

The larger town of Redruth provides a further selection of shops, supermarkets, secondary schooling and a mainline railway station. The cathedral city of Truro offers further shopping, restaurants, leisure facilities and schooling, while Falmouth, with its harbour, beaches and coastal walks, is also within easy reach.

The A30 trunk road that runs through the county is a just a few minutes’ drive away and the city of Truro, the main centre for commerce and shopping in Cornwall, with its cobbled streets and Georgian architecture is just over seven miles away.

The location offers an excellent balance of countryside living and access to everyday amenities, making it particularly appealing to families and those looking for a quieter lifestyle without feeling isolated.
