Characterful three-bed period cottage with parking, small plot and improvement potential..
Chain-free three-bedroom granite cottage
A traditional granite semi-detached cottage in Stenalees offering three good bedrooms and roomy living space across an average-sized footprint. The house retains period character — exposed stone features, sash windows and a multi-fuel burner — while a contemporary kitchen and useful porch add everyday practicality. Chain-free sale and off-street parking plus a small additional plot create immediate appeal for families or buyers seeking extra outdoor/parking potential.
Practical details are straightforward: oil-fired central heating with a combi boiler, mains services, council tax band B and EPC E. The rear courtyard is low-maintenance and the front garden is private; there is a small parcel of land adjacent to the parking that could be used for a garage, garden extension or additional parking (subject to enquiries and consents).
Buyers should note the property’s drawbacks plainly. The house is pre-1900 with granite walls likely uninsulated, the EPC rating is E and broadband speeds are slow. The home will suit someone who values character and location but may want to invest in insulation, energy upgrades and some modernisation to improve comfort and running costs.
Local amenities in nearby Roche, Bugle and St Austell provide shops, schools and rail links, while attractions such as the Eden Project and Charlestown are within easy reach. This cottage is best for buyers seeking a character home in a village setting with scope to improve energy efficiency and make practical alterations over time.
