Description
The current owner has transformed the feel of the property with a number of tasteful improvements to include a beautiful new bathroom suite, refreshed kitchen with flooring and practical improvements such as a recently replaced hot water tank. The ground floor has been cleverly arranged to create a cosy living space, a spacious dining room and well-appointed kitchen. Upstairs is a spacious principal bedroom featuring the beautiful original exposed A-frames from the former schoolhouse, a well-proportioned second bedroom with built-in storage, alongside the newly fitted bathroom. The beautiful communal garden is bursting with wildlife and an impressive array of plants and trees. Whilst remaining communal, individual sections have been allocated to each property, allowing residents to create their own private space and put their stamp on the gardens. Number 1 is fortunate to have a large wooden studio with glazed windows, offering a multitude of potential uses including a summerhouse, potting shed, artist’s space or work-from-home office. From the gardens you will find additional residents parking and a communal area to dry clothes. No1 also benefits from tandem parking to the front for two small cars. Offered for sale chain free.
Illogan is a charming village with a traditional feel and a wonderful sense of community, whilst still offering excellent access to nearby countryside and coastline. Situated along a road which has remained remarkably unchanged when compared with original photographs dating back to the 1800s, the area continues to retain much of its historical character, with beautiful views of the church tower and the pretty churchyard, through which a short walk leads you to Morrisons Daily. In springtime, the surrounding daffodil fields further add to the picturesque setting, whilst the surrounding woodlands, formerly the gardens of Manningham House, add to the area’s charm and sense of history.
The abundance of nearby walking routes makes the area ideal for those who enjoy the outdoors, with scenic trails towards Portreath, Tehidy Country Park, the Portreath Tramway and the popular Portreath to Devoran trail all close by. The beautiful beach at Portreath can even be reached on foot in approximately 20 minutes through woodland and countryside walks.
One of Illogan’s real strengths is that it continues to retain many of the amenities that are sadly disappearing from many villages, including a local pub, pasty shop, fish and chip shop, pharmacy and doctors surgery. Directly behind the property sits The Old School Centre, a well-loved community hub offering regular coffee mornings, workshops, wellbeing classes and events throughout the year, further adding to the wonderful sense of community within the village.
