House For Sale £275,000
An exceptionally well presented and stylish cottage that seamlessly blends timeless charm and character with the trends and requirements of modern living. Much improved and lovingly enhanced during the current owners tenure, the cottage must be viewed to fully appreciate its quality and seems certain to find favour with discerning purchasers.
Situated in a relatively tucked away location and yet just moments from Helston and the towns' amenities this handsome end of terrace cottage enjoys a nice outlook across the valley towards St Michaels Church as well as being a good vantage point for the Flora Day celebrations with the Early Morning Dance passing the residence.
Crisply decorated and presented to an exacting standard the cottage is light, airy and vibrant, no more so than in the striking, open plan, sitting room and dining area with fireplaces (one decorative) a window seat and a white beamed ceiling. A perfect place to entertain friends or relax in front of the wood burning stove on a winters evening.
A real feature running throughout much of the cottage are the simple but timeless stripped wooden floorboards, which, in many places are nicely complemented by stripped pine doors
Outside there is an enclosed rear Sun Terrace, which would seem an ideal place in which to sit out, relax and enjoy summer sunshine.
The cottage benefits from gas fired central heating and double glazing.
In brief the accommodation comprises an entrance hallway, an open plan lounge and dining room that leads to an open plan kitchen area. On the first floor there are three bedrooms, a family bathroom and a cloakroom.
Helston is regarded as the gateway to the Lizard Peninsula with its stunning feature coves, sandy beaches and rugged coastline. It is a bustling market town providIng facilities including national stores, health centre, cinema and a leisure centre with indoor pool. There are a number of well regarded primary schools, a secondary school with sixth form college and a university campus can be found in the nearby town of Penryn which is some twelve miles distant.
