Description	This property if a very quaint picture postcard property set within a generous plot in excess f one acre. Believed to date back to the 1800's this three bedroom cottage, with high pitched roof, is entered via a very beautiful original granite stone bridge, under which flows a gently flowing steam, that meanders along the boundary of the property. The house sits well off the road and beside its double timber garage, with electric and large storage roof space, behind which is the small pretty wooded area, planted out with daffodils and miniature cyclamen. Other areas have been planted with swaths of snowdrops and daffodils. The rural position of the property allows for a buyer to be in a very private position without being isolated and only approximately 2 miles from Penzance town centre. A bus travelling from St Just passes the property to Penzance every 30 minutes and visa, versa.
.	As mentioned previously , the main house is believed to date to the 1800s and is an absolutely delightful cottage. The accommodation consists of a sitting room with a wood burning stove which opens through to a well-built conservatory which looks out onto the splendid mature gardens. Further accommodation on this floor extends to include a study / office, dining room with Rayburn and a kitchen / breakfast room. The kitchen itself has bespoke work surfaces and a features a pleasant outlook onto the garden. Above the kitchen a very useful room which could be either a further bedroom, play room or a superb office. This area is accessed from a staircase between the dining room and kitchen. The first floor accommodation is accessed off the main hallway and leads to well appointed bathroom and two double bedrooms. The Master bedroom has glorious views over the garden and grounds

There is a large storage area in the roof space. This building has a veranda that could easily be enclosed. The immediate turning circle drive area will park multiple vehicles easily. There is also a Scandinavian design and timbered Chalet, called Bumble Bee completely self-contained, fully double glazed with LPG gas, own Worcester boiler, central heating, electric shower in the wet room, and kitchen off the open plan.
.	Our vendor has spent many years transforming the property into a gardeners paradise. The 'field garden' area has been used to accommodate geese and Indian Runner Ducks, is separated from the driveway by a small double timber gate, plus careful fencing, so that the livestock can be separated and do not interfere with the owners coming and goings. The livestock houses are only 2 years old and well maintained, specifically for geese, ducks and chickens. There are 2 large chicken runs, with access from two sides. The field garden has many varieties of camellias and magnolias, white and pink field cherry trees. Four varieties of Australian eucalyptus, field maples, hollies, willows surround the lake, plus wild roses and Myrtles. The lake has a sizable island.
.	The property is a registered small holding and has been the home for many different animals by our vendor, from runner ducks and calling ducks, a variety of geese and numerous birds like blue tits, woodpeckers, robins and kingfishers to name a few. The expansive vegetable garden was based on a Chinese system of raised beds and are North South facing for maximum growth and have paths running between them.   There is gravelled driveway parking for multiple vehicles however if required there is a generous timber built garage sitting in front of the pretty wood behind the property.   All in all this property is very special and we therefore thoroughly recommend an internal viewing to appreciate this fine property.
