Summary - Bracken Cottage, St. Anns Chapel PL18 9HE
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Characterful village home with parking and private elevated garden.
Three bedrooms in well-proportioned layouts suitable for family life
Set in the hamlet of St Ann’s Chapel within the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Bracken Cottage is a stone-built detached home that blends period character with practical family living. The ground floor offers a cosy reception room with exposed stone and a log-burning stove, a separate dining area and an extended country-style kitchen with utility space — good for everyday family use and informal entertaining. Off-road parking opposite the cottage is a rare convenience in the village.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a single bathroom featuring a cast-iron roll-top bath, lending classic character. The private rear garden is an elevated, peaceful space for outdoor time and offers room for growing and relaxation. Fast broadband and mains gas central heating provide modern comforts alongside the cottage’s traditional features.
Buyers should note some practical considerations: the house was constructed before 1900 from granite or whinstone and is assumed to have limited wall insulation, and some rooms have low ceilings and compact proportions. There is only one bathroom, which may be a constraint for large families, and the wider area shows local deprivation despite low crime and strong countryside appeal. A survey is advised to confirm services and insulation needs.
This property will suit families or buyers seeking a characterful countryside home with parking and garden, who are comfortable with minor modernization and sympathetic upgrades. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the location, layout and genuine period charm.
