Trenoweth, Mabe Burnthouse, TR10

THE PROPERTY

5 Trenoweth Cottages is a Victorian granite cottage which, together with neighbouring Number 6, has been in the same family ownership since the early 1970s. The cottage has appeal and much character, but has fallen into a state of some disrepair, now requiring restoration to give it a new lease of life. But what an opportunity this is, for a fortunate buyer to create something special in this lovely rural setting. The cottage is entered at the front into a sunlounge overlooking the garden, leading through to a sitting room with open fireplace and beyond which is the kitchen/dining room and showerroom/WC. Upstairs are two double bedrooms.

The front garden is a good size established with a single garage at its end. To the rear are two areas of paved terrace.

THE LOCATION

The six Trenoweth Cottages lie along a quiet country lane with minimal passing traffic, and are surrounded by unspoilt countryside. Trenoweth is a little known rural hamlet, about one mile from the popular village and community of Mabe Burnthouse, with its local facilities, including a primary school with ‘good’ Offstead report, The New Inn Pub and a convenience store with post office. A little further away is Asda Superstore, the university campus at Tremough and beyond to Penryn and Falmouth towns. There are delightful rural walks nearby including to neighbouring Argal reservoir, South of which lies Mawnan Smith, the Helford River and sandy beaches at Maenporth and Swanpool.
