"A charming and extremely comfortable character home, hidden away in a quiet rural setting, yet moments from village amenities.
Location
Gernick Lane is a public byway, of a mile from the centre of the popular village of Praze an Beeble where the local amenities include a village store Post Office, public house, bakery, doctors surgery and respected primary school. This excellent setting between Camborne, 3 miles to the north and Helston, 7 miles to the south means that a much wider range of shopping, schooling, recreational and health facilities are within easy commuting distance, as is the county s main arterial route, the A30. The beaches and scenic coastal walks of both the north and south coast are within a short drive, whilst the cathedral City of Truro is just 17 miles away.
The Property
This handsome granite stone fronted detached cottage suggested to have been built in 1796 has in more recent times been much improved to provide modern facilities that include a fitted kitchen and bathroom with shower. It retains character features such as the original staircase and fireplace plus oak braced and ledged internal doors.
It is fronted by a porch opening into a dining room radiating off which is a large lounge with small sun lounge, and a generous modern kitchen. There is a beautiful ground floor bathroom and at first floor there are two double bedrooms, each with wardrobes and one featuring a distinctive curved chimney breast.
The cottage has been re roofed and includes an array of owner owned PV panels on a lucrative tariff.
The property is quietly located off a byway within a level plot of 0.6 acres. The owners have invested considerable time, effort and expense in creating colourful and interesting gardens considered ideal for children and pets.
The gardens to the immediate rear are bounded on one side by a high stone wall. The area closest to the house is lawned, whilst further away is an area ideal for cultivating as either a vegetable plot or more lawn.
Attached to one side of the cottage is a very useful outhouse with a sink, stainless steel worktop and plumbing for washing machine. Nearby is a lovely workshop studio, ideal for those either working from home or needing space for their hobbies.
A large level lawn garden extends to the front, surrounded by mature trees for privacy and shelter, and a gate opens onto the byway. This garden has a covenant stating no dwelling or residential property.
