A character-packed mid-terrace cottage in St Erth offered with no onward chain, ideal for buyers seeking a compact home with scope to add value. The house retains traditional Cornish stonework and a whitewashed façade, while the interior provides two bedrooms, a separate dining room and a useful extra room for a home office or dressing area. Off-street parking to the front and a small rear courtyard give welcome outdoor space in a village setting.
The property requires modernisation throughout, making it a practical project for first-time buyers or those wanting to personalise a home. Services include mains gas central heating and double glazing (installation date unknown), but the EPC rating of E (54) and assumed lack of wall insulation indicate further energy improvements may be needed. Broadband speeds are slow locally.
Practical points are straightforward: freehold tenure, low local crime and minimal flood risk. The cottage sits close to village amenities and St Erth railway station, useful for commuting and coastal days out. Note there are believed rights of way across front and rear for neighbouring properties — buyers should confirm these when surveying.
If you want a manageable cottage with character and parking, and you’re prepared to carry out updating, this cottage represents an affordable entry into a popular Cornish village with good schooling and community facilities nearby.
