Higher Anderton Road, Millbrook, Cornwall

Tucked away behind private gates and surrounded by mature planting, The Ridge is a distinctive three-bedroom detached bungalow set within a remarkable garden plot of just over half an acre. Offering spacious and characterful accommodation, extensive outbuildings and exceptional productive gardens, the property presents a wonderful opportunity for those dreaming of a green-fingered lifestyle in Cornwall. A home where growing, cultivating and outdoor living can truly become part of everyday life.

Ground Floor
The property is approached via a gated driveway providing ample off-road parking and access to the impressive detached garage (approximately 10m x 4m), complete with inspection pit and workshop space.
Internally, a welcoming hallway leads to the principal reception areas. The kitchen is a generous and sociable space, thoughtfully designed with a central island and Heritage range cooker, complemented by skylights which flood the room with natural light. This room forms the heart of the home, although buyers should note that there is a leak in the kitchen/ utility room ceiling and remedial works will be required.
The vaulted sitting room is particularly beautiful, offering a wonderful sense of volume and character. A freestanding wood burner creates a cosy focal point, whilst above, a mezzanine dining gallery overlooks the space below. From here, doors lead into a glazed conservatory which enjoys delightful views across the gardens and provides a tranquil setting in which to relax throughout the seasons.
Practical additions include a utility room and useful storage areas, ensuring the home offers excellent potential once updated.

Bedrooms & Accommodation
Three bedrooms are arranged off the central hallway. The principal bedroom benefits from en-suite facilities, while the remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom. The layout offers flexibility, equally suited to family living, visiting guests or those working from home.
It should be noted that the property now requires general updating throughout, providing buyers with an opportunity to improve and personalise the accommodation.

The Grounds
The gardens at The Ridge are undoubtedly the heart of this special home. Extending to just over half an acre, the grounds have been thoughtfully arranged to support both enjoyment and productivity, making them ideal for keen gardeners, hobby growers and those aspiring to a more self-sufficient way of life.
Immediately adjoining the property is a paved patio and level lawn, bordered by mature shrubs and established planting, creating a private and sheltered setting for outdoor dining. A second lawned area offers further space to relax, framed by trees and colourful borders.
Beyond lies an extensive and well-established vegetable and soft fruit garden, complete with compost bays, four greenhouses, implement sheds and dedicated cultivation areas. An orchard-style lawn stretches beyond, offering further planting opportunities or open recreational space.
The property also benefits from an impressive rainwater harvesting system with approximately 6,000 litres of storage, thoughtfully supporting sustainable gardening practices. Altogether, the gardens provide an impressive sense of space, privacy and the chance to fully embrace outdoor living in Cornwall.

Situated within the sought-after village of Millbrook on the Rame Peninsula, the property enjoys a tucked-away position within a well-established residential setting. The village offers a range of amenities including shops, schooling, public houses, doctors surgery, pharmacy and regular bus routes all within reasonable walking distance, together with a strong sense of community.
