A characterful country cottage situated in the heart of the popular North Cornish village of Polyphant allowing convenient access to the A30 dual carriageway, an ideal location for exploring the delights of the West Country.
This attached home was converted from an ancillary building some years ago, with the historic fabric of the building having been preserved including exposed stone external walls, deep window sills and timber exposed lintels. It forms part of a small complex of four attached similar properties with its own enclosed, private rear terraced south facing garden which offers two easy to maintain patio seating areas.
The accommodation can also be accessed from a shared gravelled front area. Inside, the ground floor is open plan providing plenty of space for comfortable seating and a dining table and chairs. The kitchen area enjoys a slate tiled floor and an array of shaker style light coloured units situated both above and below the roll top working surface. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine, the electric oven, hob, extractor and fridge are integral and included within the sale. A wood burning stove, set on a slated hearth, modern electric wall panel heaters and a night storage heater positioned on the landing provide the heating for the home during the winter months.
Upstairs there are two double bedrooms both with high ceilings. The tiled family bathroom offers a shower over the white panelled bath, a matching basin and WC, along with a heated towel rail.
There is allocated parking for one vehicle and a shared over flow area for visitors.
