Property description
Rarely do we have the pleasure of selling a home in such a beautiful and tranquil setting!
We are delighted to offer this exciting opportunity for one fortunate client to purchase this classically presented detached 3 bedroom country cottage encompassed by 3 ½ acres of woodland and garden in a picturesque and sheltered rural valley location on the fringes of St. Agnes and Mithian.
‘Wrinklers Wood’ is an elegantly appointed property bursting at the seams with character and a wealth of period features including cottage style windows, stable doors, latch and braced internal doors, painted beamed ceilings, slate tiled floors & a butler style sink.
The ground floor is neutrally decorated and offers an extremely versatile layout. The heart of this family home is the charming cottage style kitchen and breakfast room featuring a Rayburn that gives a sense of cosiness and warmth. Adjacent to the kitchen is a rear porch with pantry and cloakroom. A velux window floods the inner hall with natural light. The hallway leads into a spacious living room with log burner and space for a large family dining table. There is also a snug/playroom that leads into a small study. A sun porch welcomes you to this property from a pretty floral courtyard with steps into a connecting south facing garden room.
The first floor boasts 3 spacious double bedrooms all with lovely views over the gardens and woodland. The master bedroom and bedroom 3 have built in wardrobes. The large family bathroom features a period suite with clawfoot bath and separate shower.
The property is approached via an unmade country lane which is about half a mile long and accesses several other properties. The driveway descends through the woods, sweeping past the house, arriving in the parking area behind the cottage where there is ¾ of an acre of wild woodland that is currently awash with bluebells.
The ¾ acre of landscaped gardens with pond are bordered by a small stream. The running water, bird song and aroma of the spring garden offers a sense of peace and tranquillity. There are a further 2 acres of land that are currently arranged into 2 paddocks with a large vegetable plot, fruit trees, orchard, and a sizeable potting shed. The 3 ½ acres of grounds offer plenty of space for children to play and explore and adults a small slice of the good life.
Hidden in the south facing garden is a delightful timber cabin which is currently utilised as a holiday let and overspill accommodation. The studio is flooded with natural light and has been designed with a large veranda to maximise the idyllic views.
Location: Mithian Downs is situated in a beautiful area of unspoilt countryside just 1 ½ miles from Mithian, 7 miles from the Truro city and just 3 miles from the spectacular coastline of St. Agnes. Nestling in a picturesque and tranquil valley, the property enjoys a private, though not isolated position.
St Agnes being the nearest village is situated in area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, its coastline is a World Heritage Site and the area is also renowned for its fine surfing beaches at Trevaunance Cove and the National Trust beach at Chapel Porth. The village is rich in history and has a thriving community all year round with a comprehensive range of independent shops and local businesses, many breathtaking walks along the beautiful unspoilt coastal pathways and scenic countryside walks that are so distinctive to the area. St Agnes and the surrounding villages are fast becoming some of the most sought after destinations in mid Cornwall to live, own a second home or holiday due to its facilities and excellent communication links throughout Cornwall with the A30 just a miles away.
