Description

Gwel-An-Chapel Cottage is a delightful detached characterful property located in the hamlet of Carnmenellis, ideally situated for access to Stithians Reservoir and positioned equidistant between Falmouth and Redruth.

Being available on the open market for the first time in over thirty five years, the current owners have over the time of their ownership built up a successful motor home and a small caravan site all set within well maintained grounds.

The cottage itself offers a great deal of charm and comprises of three bedrooms, one being on the ground floor with an en-suite shower room and doorway accessing to the exterior, feature lounge with inglenook fireplace and wood burner, dining room, kitchen, family bathroom and a large conservatory looking directly over the extensive lawned garden.

Externally there are two driveways to the cottage, the main one operating through the caravan site plus an additional lane being found to the front of the property.

The overall plot extends to 4.95 acres and within the grounds is a static caravan plus a large barn offering numerous possibilities for use.

As you would expect from the location of the cottage, there are an array of beautiful countryside walks nearby as well as access to those who enjoy water sports at Stithians Reservoir.

Due to the property being positioned between the towns of Falmouth and Redruth, both north and south coasts are within a reasonable travelling distance.

The north coast is renowned for its excellent surfing beaches and rugged coastal walks whilst the south is popular for sailing being more sheltered and having beaches such as Gyllyngvase, Castle and Swanpool found in Falmouth and therefore is really attractive to visitors.

The cathedral city of Truro is very popular with visitors and offers a good range of high street multiples and independent shops with its historic Georgian architecture and cobbled streets, there is a good range of restaurants and is also home to the Hall for Cornwall.

Falmouth itself is a maritime town with attractions such as the National Maritime Museum and Pendennis Castle.

Who are we?

Selling and letting homes across West Cornwall in a very personal and modern way.  Please let us put your home 'On the MAP'

The MAP team are all very experienced and well established property professionals who have helped thousands of buyers and sellers over the years across West Cornwall.  Between us we have over 125 years of selling and letting homes in the region.   

Since opening in 2017 the business has grown considerably mainly through recommendation.  We are delighted to publish the numerous testimonials we have received online and to challenge the poor perceptions the public have about estate agents.  Estate agents are not all the same!

MAP uses the latest technology including 360 degree cameras but is primarily about customer service something that is often very much lacking when selling or buying a home.  

We would love to help and discuss any potential home move with clients so don't hesitate to get in touch.  We offer a free, no obligation valuation service and are equally as happy speaking to you with any home moving questions you may have.

We look forward to hearing from you if we can assist in anyway.
