Set in a peaceful hamlet near Nancegollan, this Grade II listed two-bedroom thatched cottage offers authentic period character and a large, well-tended plot. Stone walls, an inglenook fireplace and a cosy wood burner create an attractive, characterful interior that has performed well as a holiday let. The property is offered freehold and chain free, with useful stone outbuildings and off‑street parking for several vehicles.
Buyers should be aware this is a historic, listed building: repairs, alterations and insulation works will be constrained and may require listed‑building consent. Heating is by an LPG boiler with radiators, drainage is to a septic tank and the EPC rating is very low (EPC 16/G), so expect ongoing running costs and potential investment to improve energy efficiency.
The cottage sits on a generous plot with mature planting, patio and lawn, plus a former piggery and additional stone store that suit storage, workshop or further conversion (subject to consents). Access is owned by the property but the neighbouring house has a right of access over the upper half of the private lane — a practical detail to note for privacy and maintenance responsibilities.
This home will suit buyers seeking rural character: those wanting a low‑maintenance holiday base, a countryside retreat, or a sympathetic renovation project to improve energy performance. Broadband speeds are slow, mobile signal is excellent, and the location gives straightforward road access to Helston, the Lizard and both north and south coasts.
