Largely double glazed, in addition to open fires there is an LPG gas fired central heating system.  

The gardens lie mainly to the rear of the property and are mainly lawned with planted shrubs and feature space for alfresco dining.

The ‘secret cabin’ at the top of the garden has a rustic theme and includes a lounge with wood burner, kitchen and second lounge with an en-suite shower room.

Accessed from the lounge is a mezzanine level.  To the front of the cabin is a wrap around deck which gives access to an outside entertainment area with space for a barbecue.

Viewing our interactive virtual tour is strongly recommended prior to arranging a closer inspection.

 

The hamlet of Twelveheads, situated in the heart of Cornwall’s mining past, is conveniently located for access to the county town of Truro, the university town of Falmouth on the south coast and the north coast village of Porthtowan, which is noted for its sandy beach and surfing.

Mainline railway stations will be found at Redruth and Truro.  

Twelveheads is home to ‘Bon Appetit’ which is well respected locally as a restaurant serving breakfast, brunches and lunches.

There is easy access to the Poldice Valley, popular with cyclists and walkers and the coast to coast cycle way is nearby.
