A compact, characterful two-bedroom cottage sitting on an elevated terrace with uninterrupted river and countryside views. The house has been thoughtfully updated to retain period features — exposed beams, a log-burning stove and a sun terrace that captures afternoon light — making it a very pretty riverside base in Malpas.
Practical positives include a surprisingly large, tiered rear garden with scope for planting, entertaining or extending (subject to consents), and freehold tenure with affordable Council Tax Band C. The property is well placed for village life: a popular pub, boatyard and bus link into Truro are all within easy walking distance, and Truro city centre is a short drive or bus ride away.
Buyers should note the cottage is compact (about 548 sq ft) and is heated by electric storage heaters; the EPC is rated E. The stone walls are likely uninsulated and broadband speeds are reported as very slow — factors to consider if you need fast home working or lower energy bills. Parking is on-street and there are no known flood risks.
This cottage will suit someone looking for a picture-postcard riverside home or a lock-up-and-leave bolthole rather than buyers needing large, modern living spaces. Its charm, outlook and garden make it especially appealing to buyers seeking character and outdoor space in a peaceful village setting.
