Godolphin Road, Helston

Tucked away in a wonderfully private spot just moments from the heart of town, this delightful two bedroom cottage offers the best of both worlds - peace and seclusion alongside everyday convenience. Set in an elevated position, it enjoys lovely views across the town and surrounding countryside, including a picture perfect view of St Michael's Church from the front garden.

Beautifully presented, the cottage combines character and comfort throughout. A practical entrance/utility room leads into a well-appointed kitchen, while the ground floor bathroom adds convenience. The heart of the home is the spacious dual-aspect lounge/dining room, which enjoys plenty of natural light and effortlessly balances a sense of space with a warm, cosy ambiance, complete with a log burner for those cooler evenings.

Upstairs, you'll find two double bedrooms, with the main bedroom being particularly generous.

A true highlight of this property is its gardens. The rear garden is a secluded, lawned space framed by mature borders bursting with colour in the summer months. It also features a small nature pond, a handy shed and a covered area for storing logs or recycling. To the front, a charming gravelled courtyard provides a sunny, peaceful setting for al fresco lunches or evening drinks while taking in the stunning sunset views over the church and countryside beyond.

Just a short stroll from the town centre, local shops, Tesco and schools, this is a home that must be viewed to be fully appreciated. It's a great combination of charm, location and lifestyle.

LOCATION
Helston is famed for its historic Flora Day celebrations on 8th May when the town is bedecked with greenery, bluebells and gorse. Throughout the day dancers weave in and out of shops, houses and gardens following the Helston Town Band playing the famous Flora Dance and ushering in the summer. This property is situated in a tucked away location with a super garden and attractive outlook perfectly placed to enjoy all that the town has to offer whilst at the same time enjoying some peace and seclusion. The modern part of the town and the surrounding nearby areas now boast many primary schools with the nearest secondary schools being in Helston and Mullion. Helston also enjoys a leisure centre with a swimming pool and large gym and many amenity areas, including the Coronation Boating Lake and the beautiful National Trust Penrose Estate which offers a host of woodland walks. Helston is widely regarded as the gateway to the stunning Lizard Peninsula and is within a ten minute drive of the thriving harbour and coastline at Porthleven, offering an array of shops and good quality restaurants along with world class surf. The city of Truro and the towns of Falmouth, Penzance and Hayle are all within a twenty to thirty minute drive.
