A LIGHT, DETACHED HOME IN A SOUGHT-AFTER SEMI RURAL LOCATION

A wonderful opportunity to acquire a completely detached two bedroom home in the much sought-after Perran Downs area, offering bright and spacious accommodation, plenty of outside space and excellent versatility. Recently refreshed throughout with fresh paintwork and new carpets upstairs, the house feels immediately welcoming and ready to enjoy.

A great feature is the particularly lovely triple-aspect kitchen/breakfast room, which is flooded with natural light and offers an excellent amount of storage and generous work surface space. A door leads directly out to the garden, making this a wonderfully practical and sociable space.

From the kitchen, a stable door leads through to the large lounge/dining room. This impressive room is naturally divided by the central staircase, creating distinct and generously proportioned dining and sitting areas. The lounge is cosy and characterful, with exposed stone and a fireplace (not currently in use) while off the lounge/dining room is a useful additional space, ideal as a study, hobbies room or occasional workspace. Although compact, this area is triple aspect, making it exceptionally light and versatile. A bathroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs are two generous double bedrooms, both featuring charming window seats and useful built-in storage.

Outside, there is plenty of parking on the gravelled driveway, with additional space for storing a boat, trailer or other recreational equipment, together with a detached garage. Immediately behind the house is a particularly pretty, sunny and secluded seating area, accessed directly from the kitchen, with steps leading up to a raised lawn.

The location is a real highlight. Perran Downs is a highly desirable area, conveniently positioned close to St Hilary and Goldsithney, with excellent access to both Helston and Penzance. Some of West Cornwall's most beautiful beaches are also within easy reach, including Marazion, Perranuthnoe and Prussia Cove.

With its detached position, light-filled rooms, flexible accommodation, excellent parking and lovely gardens, this is a home that could suit a wide range of buyers, from couples looking for space to small families seeking a comfortable and well-connected base within reach of the much sought after St Hillary Primary School. A great opportunity in a wonderful part of West Cornwall.
