Description

A beautiful and characterful stone faced extended and detached period cottage located tucked away down a lane in a desirable location off Alexandra Road on the outskirts of this popular village.

The property has been transformed over the past three years having undergone a wealth of improvement works to include a dormer roof extension, uPVC double glazing, replacement uPVC conservatory, new central heating system, fitted kitchen (new in July 2025) and bathrooms. There are four bedrooms, beautiful mature and well stocked gardens, large detached garage and parking for several cars.

We believe this cottage will appeal to buyers seeking character and individuality with beautifully presented accommodation.

This charming and detached character cottage is set in a desirable and quiet location with the most beautiful, enclosed, generous garden which enjoys a rural outlook over fields.

The property has been renovated and now comprises of a lounge with wood burner, a separate dining room with feature Inglenook fireplaces, a conservatory overlooking the garden, a fitted kitchen with separate utility and a fitted shower room on the ground floor. To the first floor there are four double bedrooms and a bathroom. 

Benefiting from double glazed doors and windows and gas central heating, the garden at the rear is mature and very well established with a beautiful outlook, there is a detached garage and a long driveway providing parking for several cars. 

Less than half a mile from the property one will find the centre of the village of Illogan and here there is a choice of convenience stores, a pharmacy, doctor surgeries and a respected Public House.  

The north coast of Portreath with its harbour and sandy beach is within three miles and the nearest major town is Redruth which is within four miles.
Redruth offers a range of major shops, banks and a main line Railway Station which connects with London Paddington and the north of England.  The town is also home to Kresen Kernow which is a mecca for those researching their Cornish heritage.

Truro, the administrative and shopping hub for Cornwall and the university town of Falmouth on the south coast are both within commuting distance.
