Spacious country home five miles from Newquay, ideal for families and equestrian uses.
Detached four-bedroom cottage on approximately eight acres with paddocks
Set in a peaceful semi-rural hamlet just five miles from Newquay and the north Cornwall coast, Little-Lovely is a substantial detached four-bedroom cottage standing within about eight acres of paddocks and grounds. The house blends rustic character with detached privacy: traditional stone elevations, a tranquil pond nearby and outbuildings including stables and a car port, ideal for hobby equestrian use or country living. Ample off-street parking and a very large plot give scope for garden projects, smallholding activities or further outbuilding conversion (subject to consents).
Internally the property offers generous accommodation across multiple storeys with approximately 2,463 sq ft and around nine principal rooms. Heating is via an air-source heat pump with underfloor heating and electricity as the main fuel; walls show average thermal performance. This is a long-held family home coming to market for the first time in over three decades, so there is clear potential for sympathetic updating and modernisation to unlock additional value.
Practical considerations include very slow broadband speeds despite excellent mobile signal, and council tax noted as above average. Local schooling options are mixed (some Good and some Requires Improvement Ofsted ratings). Flood risk is low and crime levels are very low, making the property well suited to buyers seeking rural peace within reach of Newquay’s amenities and coast.
Overall this is a characterful country cottage with significant land and outbuildings, attractive to families, equestrian enthusiasts or buyers wanting a spacious rural base with scope for improvement and diversification.
