Description
At the heart of the home is a handmade kitchen/breakfast room, alongside a generous living and dining space with a log burner, perfect for relaxing evenings. The ground floor also features a double bedroom with French doors opening directly onto the garden, as well as a stylish bathroom.
Upstairs are two further double bedrooms, each with views over the garden and beyond to the rooftops of Helston and the surrounding countryside.
The garden itself is a true sanctuary-enjoying a beautifully sunny aspect, private, and brimming with mature planting. Well-established beds and borders are complemented by a lawned area, a kitchen garden, and practical additions like a shed and log store. From here, you can enjoy tranquil views towards St Michael's Church and take in spectacular sunsets.
Peaceful and tucked away, yet just a short stroll from the town centre, Tesco, and highly regarded local schools including Parc Eglos Primary and Helston Community College, this is a special home in a quietly exceptional 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 enjoys a wonderful 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 offering 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.
