Bodmin, Cornwall

Blackthorne Cottage is a spacious and well-maintained 4/5 bedroom modern cottage-style home, set within approximately 0.60 acres on the edge of St Breward and Bodmin Moor.

The property offers generous accommodation, a range of outbuildings, and a detached two-storey residential annex, providing excellent flexibility for a variety of lifestyles.

Upon entering through the front porch, you are welcomed into a large, light-filled hallway that immediately sets the tone for the property. To the right, a generous private study provides a great space for home working or could easily serve as a fifth bedroom, especially useful for those seeking a ground floor living option. A ground floor WC sits conveniently adjacent.

Moving further into the home, a beautifully presented open-plan kitchen and dining area forms the heart of the house. Recently fitted, the modern kitchen includes integral appliances, ample worktop space, and enjoys lovely views over the rear garden through multi-aspect windows. There’s plenty of room for a large dining table, making this a perfect space for family life and entertaining alike.

The spacious living room features a striking stone fireplace with a wood-burning stove, ideal for cosy evenings in. French doors open directly onto a generous patio area, perfectly positioned for summer dining and enjoying the peace and privacy of the garden. A practical utility room is located just off the kitchen, offering space for white goods and convenient side access to the exterior.

The first floor offers four well-proportioned double bedrooms. Two overlook the immaculately maintained gardens, while the others enjoy open countryside views across the Cornish landscape. The master bedroom benefits from a stylish en-suite with shower, WC, and basin. A spacious family bathroom completes the upstairs accommodation and features a separate bath, walk-in shower, WC, and basin.

Blackthorne Cottage sits within approximately 0.60 acres of level, well-enclosed grounds. The rear garden is private and recently fenced, making it ideal for children and pets. The space includes a summerhouse, greenhouse, and a dedicated area for solar panels with a battery system that contributes to the energy needs of the property—enhancing overall efficiency.

At the front, a gravelled parking area provides ample space for multiple vehicles. The property also benefits from a number of substantial outbuildings, including a large two-room workshop/garage with a roll-over shutter door and mains power, as well as a two-room store—ideal for gardening equipment, tools, or hobby use.

To the side of the garden, there is a second enclosed plot offering fantastic potential for future use, such as glamping (subject to the correct permissions). Please note: two shepherd’s huts currently located on the plot are not included in the sale.

Accessed via a shared driveway leading to a gated entrance, Blackthorne Cottage offers a rare opportunity to enjoy modern comfort, outdoor space, and rural tranquility—right on the doorstep of Bodmin Moor.

The Annex is beautifully designed with both style and practicality in mind, the detached annex at Blackthorne Cottage offers an impressive and self-contained space—perfect for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or potential rental income. This reverse-living layout maximises the stunning surroundings, making the most of its elevated position and dramatic moorland views.

Upon entering, you’re welcomed into a spacious hallway, which sets the tone for the thoughtful design throughout. On the ground floor, the annex features a contemporary family bathroom with a shower, WC, and basin, as well as a dedicated utility area housing white goods. Two well-sized double bedrooms branch off from the hallway—one currently configured as a twin room, offering flexibility for guests or family members.

Upstairs, the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area forms the heart of the home. The modern kitchen includes integrated appliances, stylish finishes, and plinth lighting that adds a touch of luxury. There's ample space for a dining table and a comfortable sitting area, all oriented around a show-stopping triangular floor-to-ceiling window that floods the space with light and frames breathtaking views across Bodmin Moor.

Additional modern touches, such as LED-lit stairs, enhance the contemporary feel, while the slate-hung exterior, dormer windows, and distinctive architectural design give the annex a unique and highly memorable character.

Externally, the annex enjoys its own private and enclosed gated garden, offering a secluded outdoor space for relaxing or entertaining. At approximately 785 square feet, this is a well-proportioned and beautifully finished residence in its own right—an exceptional addition to the overall Blackthorne Cottage offering.
