GENERAL COMMENTS

Pittsdown Cottage is very attractive detached period cottage together with a fabulous detached holiday let located in a private position on the outskirts of Tregony. The whole property is beautifully presented and is perfect for purchasers looking for a wonderful home with income. The vendors purchased Pittsdown Cottage through this firm in 2016 when it was in a very poor state of repair and requiring complete renovation. The whole property has been refurbished in a very sympathetic way retaining all of its charm and character with modern additions including a substantial rear extension. In 2020 the former detached traditional stone barn thought to be a blacksmith's forge was tastefully converted into a holiday cottage - Tigs Barn. This has been a huge success and is very popular with guests and booked for the majority of the year. Tigs Barn can also be used as a full time residential let or annexe if required. It can easily be extended to create a second bedroom if required.
Pittsdown Cottage has three bedrooms, two on the first floor and one downstairs, there is also a bathroom on the first floor. The master bedroom opens onto a large balcony that provides plenty of sitting out space in which to enjoy the fabulous countryside views. The ground floor includes a kitchen/breakfast room, dining room, huge sitting room, shower room and third bedroom. The gardens enjoy a sunny south facing aspect and back onto fields. They are extremely private with generous lawns, sun terrace and also a small copse with shed. At the front is lots of parking. In all the gardens and grounds extend to approximately 0.4 Acre.
Tigs Barn is fabulous with light and spacious accommodation and is beautifully appointed with Air Source air to air heating/cooling. The ground floor includes a huge open plan kitchen, dining and sitting room and shower room. The first floor has a large mezzanine double bedroom with exposed roof trusses. It has great character and very light rooms. At the rear is a private enclosed garden that also backs onto fields.

LOCATION

The nearby village of Tregony is a thriving community, sometimes referred to as the "gateway to the Roseland" offering a post office/shop, public house, church, doctors surgery and both primary and secondary schools as well as wide range of social activities. The village is easily accessible to the whole of the Roseland Peninsula which is recognised as being of outstanding natural beauty and subsequently a much sought after residential area. The cathedral city of Truro is about ten miles and St. Austell slightly further with a wider range of facilities. The village also has the benefit of a regular bus service.
