Description:
A charming and beautifully presented Grade II Listed character cottage, set on the village edge amidst mature gardens. 2 Reception rooms, kitchen, dining room, 4 bedrooms (1 en suite), bathroom. Garage. Utility. Parking & mature gardens.
SITUATION
Approximately mile from the village centre, The Old Forge stands within mature lawned gardens.
Well positioned between the majestic north Cornish coast and the altogether softer south coast, Stithians is perfectly located to access the main towns of Falmouth (8 Miles) and of course the cathedral city of Truro (9.5 miles).
A traditional village comprising a variety of attractive granite cottages interspersed with more recent buildings, the surrounding countryside offers a variety of scenic walks whilst the nearby Stithians Lake affords water sports and fishing. Within this popular village is a good range of local amenities including the parish church, well regarded primary school, doctors surgery, village hall with pre school, post office / general stores, fish and chip shop and The Seven Stars public house.
On the north coast there are a number of fine surfing beaches including those at St Agnes and Porthtowan whilst on the south coast are the wonderful day sailing waters of the Carrick Roads. There is a main line rail connection to London Paddington at Truro, together with regular flights departing from Newquay airport on the north coast.
DESCRIPTION
Originally thought to have been the blacksmith's house dating from the mid 19th century, this pretty Listed residence is traditionally constructed of granite elevations under a slate roof.
Comprehensively and sympathetically refurbished in more recent years, this charming character home offers spacious and beautifully presented accommodation with a number of well preserved features including open beamed ceilings and granite fireplaces.
In summary, a superb traditional Cornish cottage that perfectly blends period detailing with all the comforts of a modern lifestyle.
