General Comments - A middle terraced village house occupying a fabulous position between St Johns Terrace and Quay Road, in one of the south coast of Cornwall’s most sought-after creekside villages. This is a truly rare opportunity to purchase a characterful property in such a special setting, with attractive accommodation, a generous garden and lovely views towards the creek and surrounding countryside.

The property forms part of a pretty row of whitewashed village houses and is approached via shared pedestrian access to both the front and the rear of the property. The small front garden offers a lovely space to sit out from the main living room. The house has an appealing cottage feel, combining traditional character with comfortable, well-presented accommodation arranged over two floors.

The ground floor is centred around a delightful lounge/dining room, a warm and inviting space with exposed timber floorboards, beamed ceiling and a wood-burning stove set within a recessed fireplace. A patio door opens to the front garden and allow plenty of natural light into the room, while also drawing the eye towards the views beyond.

To the rear of the living space is a fitted kitchen with painted shaker-style units, timber work surfaces, tiled splashbacks, integrated oven and hob, sink and practical storage. The layout offers an open connection between the kitchen and dining area, making the space well suited to everyday living and entertaining. From the kitchen, a rear lobby leads through to the bathroom, which is fitted with a bath with shower over, glazed screen, wash hand basin and WC.

On the first floor are two bedrooms. The principal bedroom is positioned to the front of the property and enjoys a lovely outlook over the village towards the creek and wooded countryside beyond. The second bedroom overlooks the rear garden and includes a cupboard, making it ideal as a guest bedroom, study or occasional room.

Outside, the property enjoys far more outside space than might be expected for a village house of this type. To the rear is a generous garden, mainly laid to lawn and bordered by mature hedging and established planting. A useful timber shed/outbuilding provides storage, and the garden offers excellent potential for a purchaser to landscape and enjoy. From the upper part of the garden there are particularly attractive views across the rooftops towards the creek and surrounding countryside.

The property extends to approximately 48 sq m / 519 sq ft in total and provides a rare blend of character, location and outside space. It would make an excellent permanent home, Cornish bolthole, holiday retreat or investment purchase.

Early viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the charm, setting and potential of this delightful creekside village home.

Devoran - Devoran is a highly regarded creekside village, situated approximately five miles south-west of Truro, just off the A39 Truro to Falmouth road, at the head of Restronguet Creek, a tributary of the River Fal. The village offers a good range of local amenities including a church, public house, doctors’ surgery and primary school, with further facilities, including a supermarket, available in nearby Carnon Downs.

The area is renowned for its natural beauty and scenic waterside setting. Although the creek is tidal, there are many attractive walks nearby, including the much-loved Tramway route which follows the edge of the creek towards Point and Penpol. The cathedral city of Truro and the harbour town of Falmouth are both within easy driving distance, offering a wider range of shopping, schooling, leisure and transport facilities. Devoran also benefits from a regular bus service, making it a particularly convenient and desirable village location.
