Description

A CHARMING PERIOD COTTAGE NESTLED IN THE HEART OF THE PICTURESQUE VILLAGE OF ST COLUMB MINOR, ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF NEWQUAY. CHARACTERFUL ONE-BEDROOM HOME REQUIRING FULL RENOVATION, OFFERING EXCITING POTENTIAL WITH NO ONWARD CHAIN.

A Quirky Cornish Classic with Endless Potential

Nestled in the heart of the picturesque and historic village of St Columb Minor - just a short stroll from Porth Beach and only a couple of miles from the vibrant seaside town of Newquay - Duck House is a one-of-a-kind period cottage steeped in character, charm, and opportunity.

Locally and affectionately known as Duck House, this unique one-bedroom cottage offers a rare chance to breathe new life into a truly individual home. While modest in size, this property delivers more than its fair share of personality, from its open-plan layout and cosy courtyard to its wonderfully whimsical features - including a real-life “Tardis” shower cubicle!

The accommodation comprises a light-filled living area enhanced by a large bay window, with a compact kitchen at the rear and access to a private, enclosed courtyard via a charming stable door. Upstairs, the open-plan bedroom suite provides creative scope for reconfiguration, with room to reimagine the layout and maximise space. A WC and wash basin complete the upper level.

This is a complete renovation project - ideal for imaginative buyers ready to lovingly restore and transform a small but soulful Cornish gem. With period features just waiting to be uncovered and improved, Duck House is your blank canvas to create a truly special home or holiday hideaway.

Situated in the tight-knit community of St Columb Minor - renowned for its beautiful church, walkable amenities, and neighbourly spirit - and moments from the thriving new community of Nansledan, Duck House is perfectly placed for those seeking a balance of village charm and coastal lifestyle.

Duck House isn’t just a property - it’s a passion project. For the right buyer, it promises not only a rewarding renovation but a rare opportunity to own something truly special in one of Cornwall’s most sought-after coastal communities.

Please Note: Due to its size, style, and current condition, conventional mortgage lending may be limited. Buyers requiring finance must present a physical mortgage offer prior to the property being withdrawn from the market.
