Description

REF: AT0518- The Old Carpenter's Shop is a charming detached three-bedroom modern home, tucked away within the picturesque hamlet of Hillhead, near St Stephen, in the heart of Mid Cornwall. Thoughtfully and sympathetically designed to reflect the character and appearance of a traditional Cornish cottage, the property offers an attractive blend of timeless charm and modern-day comfort. Named after the former carpenter's shop that is said to have once occupied the site, this delightful home enjoys a unique sense of history and individuality.

Occupying an enviable position, the property commands far-reaching countryside views and benefits from adjoining open farmland, creating a wonderful feeling of space and tranquillity. Internally, the well-proportioned accommodation includes a welcoming living room centred around a wood-burner, a distinctive open-plan kitchen and dining area designed for both everyday family life and entertaining, a practical utility porch, a ground floor shower room, a family bathroom, and the added comfort of oil-fired central heating.

Outside, the attractive gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped with decked seating areas and lawns, perfectly positioned to enjoy the surrounding rural outlook. A range of useful timber outbuildings and a charming summerhouse provide excellent versatility for storage, hobbies or home working, while a generous driveway offers off-road parking for approximately three to four vehicles.

Despite its rural setting, The Old Carpenter's Shop is conveniently located just a short distance from the popular village of St Stephen, which offers a good range of everyday amenities including shops, a primary and secondary school, healthcare facilities and a public house. Its central Mid Cornwall location also provides excellent access to the north and south coasts, the Eden Project, and the nearby towns of St Austell, Newquay and Bodmin, making it an ideal choice for those seeking an idyllic countryside lifestyle without compromising on convenience.

About eXp UK, South West

114 St. Martin's Lane London WC2N 4BE

eXp UK are the newest estate agency business, powering individual agents around the UK to provide a personal service and experience to help get you moved.

Here are the top 7 things you need to know when moving home:

Get your house valued by 3 different agents before you put it on the market

Don't pick the agent that values it the highest, without evidence of other properties sold in the same area

It's always best to put your house on the market before you find a property

The estate agent acts for the seller and is there to get the seller the best price possible

Understand the length of time it can take - 14 weeks from when you accept an offer, or have an offer accepted to move in! A long time!

It can get stressful, but speak to your agent and your solicitor and they will put you in the picture

Be nice to estate agents - we're pretty nice people, offer some great advice and will help to get you moved ;-)
