AN EXCITING OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE A TRADITIONAL, SEMI-DETACHED MINERS COTTAGE ON THE EDGE OF THE BEAUTIFUL LUXULYAN VALLEY. 2/3 BEDROOMS, PERIOD FEATURES, LARGE GARDEN AND A 1/3 ACRE FIELD.

Location - Luxulyan Valley is a designated World Heritage Site boasting many industrial mining remains from the early 19th century. It is a fascinating valley to explore with many pathways winding their way up to the striking Treffry viaduct. With the Woodland and river setting, Luxulyan Valley is a beautiful and tranquil place to spend time.

Pontsmill Cottages are ideally located within a short stroll of the lower valley entrance and car park.

This is an exciting opportunity to purchase a cottage with large gardens, out buildings and a secure field offering huge potential for self sufficiency.

Accomodation - A useful entrance porch provides ideal space for hanging coats and storing shoes or wellies. From here, an entrance hall has doors opening into a snug/bedroom, stairs rise up to the first floor and continue into the kitchen. The snug/bedroom's focal point is a fabulous open granite fire place which houses a freestanding wood burner.

The kitchen comprises of wooden work surfaces, base and wall units and a sturdy Belfast sink all in keeping with the cottage. There is space for a washing machine, Fridge freezer and tumble dryer. The kitchen has a door giving access to the rear garden and a door leading through to the sitting room.

The sitting room oozes character with another grand granite fire place with wood burner to keep you cosy in the cooler nights. The cottage has been opened to incorporate a large conservatory which is used as a dining room.
Light, bright and airy this offers a contrast to the more traditional cottage features. Doors open up to the rear garden.

Stairs rise to the first floor which comprises of two bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate WC and shower room.

Both double bedrooms are generous in size with bedroom one having a fire place, which currently houses and electric fire and has a really cute built in storage area, great for a wardrobe. The second double also enjoys a fire place (currently housing an electric fire) and enjoys views over the rear garden.

The family have reconfigured the first floor installing a new, modern family bathroom fitted with a bath, shower over, hand wash basin, WC, heated towel rail and a storage cupboard. The property also has the luxury of a second shower room with WC.

The heating consists of a wood burner, solid fuel stove and electric radiators.

Outside - 2 Pontsmill is situated in an idyllic location and provides plenty of gardens and out buildings to take full advantage of its rural setting. The property has two large outbuildings which both have power and provides an excellent storage room or could have potential for other uses, subject to any planning permissions. There is off road parking for two cars and a good sized front garden (previously a vegetable patch) and a large secure rear garden mostly laid to lawn. From the rear garden, across a disused lane is the field. Approximately 1/3 acre in size the current owners have secured it for their dogs and have used it for dog training. Again this field has plenty of potential for anyone wanting to enjoy the outdoors or possibly look at a self sufficient lifestyle.
