With far reaching views across the Vale of Lanherne, this extremely attractive three bedroom cottage with an immaculately presented renovated interior has stunning landscaped gardens that extend to approximately 0.25 acres.

Tolcarne Cottage is situated in the little known, tranquil rural hamlet of Higher Tolcarne within a mile of picture perfect St Mawgan Village and just three miles from the revered beach at Mawgan Porth.
Tolcarne Cottage exhibits original character from the 1850's alongside a 1960's extension which doubled the size of this handsome three bedroom detached house. This deceptively substantial property has a beautiful stone façade with red brick detailing surmounted by a natural slate roof.

During their 12 year tenure, our client has sympathetically renovated Tolcarne Cottage to create an elegant and immaculately presented home within this peaceful hamlet and Area of Great Landscape Value. Noteworthy features include engineered oak flooring, a wood burning stove, original thick stone walls, UPVC double glazing, granite work surfaces and a Rangemaster cooker in the modern kitchen and two contemporary bathrooms.
As the accompanying floorplans illustrate, the accommodation briefly comprises an inviting reception porch, which gives the original part of the cottage symmetry. There are two light, bright reception rooms, the sitting room with the wood burning stove and French doors to the patio while the dining room has deep windows sills and stairs rising to the first floor. An opening leads through into the kitchen which is beautifully appointed, fully integrated, sleek and modern.
Up on the first floor there are three bedrooms, two of which are genuinely large doubles and the third slightly smaller. A range of built in wardrobes can be found in the master bedroom alongside an en-suite shower room. A second shower room is located on the first floor which is spacious and modern.
Step outside and Tolcarne Cottage really comes into its own. Extending to approximately 0.25 acres, the gardens and grounds are beautifully landscaped with individual areas of interest and a glorious array of established plants, shrubs and trees. Complete with pergola, covered seating area, large patio terrace, natural stone retaining walls and meandering paths. The views across the Vale of Lanherne are notable and far reaching and provide a wonderful backdrop to this beautiful setting. There is off road parking on either side of the cottage and large attached garage with electric door. Services to the property include mains gas, water, electricity and drainage. EPC rating D. Council tax band E.
