Summary - Sunset Cottage, Sparnon Gate TR16 4JA
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious countryside home with paddocks and annexe potential.
South-facing gardens with total plot approximately 2.34 acres (two paddocks)
Sunset Cottage is a substantial Victorian detached home set in just over two acres of level paddocks and landscaped, south-facing gardens. The house offers generous rooms, high ceilings and flexible accommodation — including a ground-floor bedroom and an extension that could form a self-contained annexe subject to planning. Large windows and French doors give pleasant outlooks and good natural light, with broad countryside vistas toward the north Cornish coast.
Practical features include a double-length garage, ample parking, oil-fired central heating and double glazing. The plot is a key asset: two well-kept paddocks (each about an acre) suit equestrian or small-holding use, while private driveway access and sheltered garden areas create a quiet, secure setting.
Buyers should note a few material points: the EPC rating is F, the property uses oil heating and relies on two septic tanks for drainage, and the stone walls appear to lack cavity insulation. Broadband speeds are very slow in the location. The annexe potential is attractive but would require the necessary consents and possible investment to modernise services and energy efficiency.
For families or those seeking a country lifestyle near the north Cornwall coast, this home combines space, privacy and outdoor scope. It will particularly suit buyers who value land and adaptable accommodation and who are willing to carry out targeted upgrades to improve energy performance and connectivity.
