Meneage Road, Helston

While the property would benefit from a degree of modernisation, it offers great potential to create an super family home, situated along one of Helston's most well-regarded residential roads.

Rich in character, the home retains period features, complemented by modern comforts including gas central heating and double glazing.

The well-proportioned accommodation briefly comprises: an entrance hallway, lounge, separate dining room, and a spacious kitchen/breakfast room featuring a gas-fired Aga and walk-in larder. A utility area and ground-floor W.C. complete the downstairs layout. To the first floor are four bedrooms, a study, and a family bathroom.

Externally, the property is approached via land owned by the Downs Land Trust - a charity dedicated to preserving the attractive approaches to Helston - leading to a gated parking area. The surrounding gardens are a particular highlight, with the rear garden being of generous proportions.

Positioned to the side and rear of the main house, the self-contained annexe provides superb flexibility, comprising an open-plan living/kitchen area, shower room, and double bedroom, along with its own garden space to the front - ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or income potential subject to the necessary plannings and consents.

Helston is an historic and thriving market town offering a comprehensive range of amenities, including national retailers, health centres, a cinema, and a leisure centre with indoor swimming pool. The town is served by well-regarded primary schools and a secondary school with sixth-form provision. It also serves as the gateway to the beautiful Lizard Peninsula, a dedicated area of outstanding natural beauty.
