Description
From the roadside you could be excused for thinking that Verbena is a traditional two-up, two-down cottage, however this character property has had some generous extensions to the rear making it a good-size three double bedroom property complete with dining / garden room and a utility room as well.
A Brief Tour
Accessing the cottage from the charming front garden, a part glazed front door leads into the kitchen. This spacious room is well equipped and has a lovely Cornish stone fireplace with wooden lintel housing the electric Aga. A staircase leads to the first floor.
Off the kitchen is a generously sized family room, clearly defined into three separate areas. Closest to the kitchen is the breakfast area with ample space for a table, with a large sash window overlooking the front garden. There is a generous and comfortable living area with an open fireplace, leading on to the garden / dining area. Large windows and a skylight ensure that natural light floods into this room, and a door leads directly out onto the patio and garden. There is also a useful shower room and WC off the dining area. A handy utility room leads off the living area and runs along the length of the cottage. It houses the oil-fired boiler, as well as washing machine and a small Belfast sink, and can be accessed from the front of the property and the garden, making it ideal for wet dogs and children, as well as drying wetsuits, coats and wellies!
On the first floor, the landing opens up to the three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Bedroom one is a generous double at the front of the property, and has built in wardrobes and an alcove housing a chest of drawers. Bedroom three is also at the front and is currently arranged as a twin. Also at the front is a shower room which is on a Saniflo system. We have been advised by our clients that this was previously a fourth, single, bedroom and could be converted back if so wished. To the rear of the property with expansive countryside views, bedroom two is another generous double bedroom with built in wardrobes. There is also a family bathroom, with electric shower, located to the rear of the cottage.
Outside is a patio area leading directly off both the garden / dining room and the utility, with lawned area and a pathway leading towards a gate, a further area of “secret” garden and one of the outbuildings. This outbuilding (subject to the relevant planning) would make ideal ancillary accommodation to the main cottage or as a home office, gym or studio. The second outbuilding is located to one side of the garden, and is currently used to house garden tools, bikes, etc. The garden has a range of beds with plants and shrubs and faces due west making it the perfect spot for an evening barbeque.
Summary
Offering a rare opportunity for an investment buyer to purchase a charming and characterful cottage as an ongoing holiday letting concern including all fixtures, fittings and contents (except some personal items), properties of this ilk are few and far between in this sought after village of Veryan, often considered to be one of the prettiest on the Roseland Peninsula. Viewing is highly recommended.
Holiday Letting
Verbena is being sold as an ongoing holiday letting concern including all the furniture (except some personal items), although would equally be suited as a permanent family home due to its location, parking and garden. Historical letting figures are available upon request.

Historical Note
Veryan is most famous for its nineteenth century thatched Round Houses. There are five in all, two pairs of which stand at each end of the village and another in the centre. They were originally built by a missionary, named Reverend Jeremiah Trist, for his daughters. The present name of the village is a corruption of St Symphorian, the Parish saint, which in 1525 had become St Severian leading eventually to St Veryan. Close to Veryan is Carne Beacon, a Bronze Age grass covered barrow and reputedly the burial place of the legendary 6th century chieftain, Gereint of Dumnonia from whom the nearby village of Gerrans gets its name. Not far from there is Veryan Castle, a small Iron Age hill fort.
