Property
This is a superb opportunity to purchase a detached property requiring some
modernisation close to the beaches of Newquay, affording 7. 5 acres of flat
pastureland and gardens.
Originally built in the 1700s, Cogdat Cottage is a Grade II Listed property,
formerly two workman's cottages. In their time at the property, the current
owners have converted it from a derelict building to a cosy and characterful
family home. The addition of the extension 15 years ago, has increased the
living area considerably giving a new owner the potential to create a multi -
generational living space.
The property is approached via a shared drive and an off - road parking area
suitable for multiple cars. Entrance to the house is gained via a part glazed
front door leading into the farmhouse style kitchen with electric “Leisure”
range cooker, bespoke wooden units with a traditional Belfast Sink and plenty
of additional inbuilt storage. This room also provides a great space for
family dining.
Adjacent to the kitchen, the snug retains much charm and character and has
many interesting period features including exposed beams, a fully serviced
woodburning stove and a window seat providing a great spot for relaxing with a
book.
From the kitchen, a hallway leads into the extension and all other principal
rooms on this floor. There is a handy utility room and WC with fitted wall
cupboards, space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer; a light
and airy living room and a double bedroom with ensuite shower room and a built
in, 4 - person sauna. Upstairs from this bedroom is a further converted loft
room with limited head height; currently set up with a double bed at one end
and an office at the other.
Stairs from the kitchen take you up to two further double bedrooms with
vaulted ceilings, and a good size family bathroom with a large, two - person
bath.
**Outside**
The garden begins with a spacious and well - established lawned area with
multiple fruit trees and extensive planting. Currently used to house chickens
and hand reared ducks, this garden would give any potential buyer the chance
to live the “good life”. As you walk through the garden, the space opens into
extensive and level paddocks that would be ideal for equestrian use. There is
a field shelter on skids that will be remaining, as well as a large poly
tunnel and useful storage sheds.
This property has more to offer than can be detailed in this brochure, so
viewings are highly encouraged.
**Services**
Mains electricity, oil fired central heating, mains water and private
drainage.
**Surrounding area**
The property is located on a quiet country lane in a small hamlet which is
surrounded by countryside offering peaceful country walks on the doorstep. The
small residential hamlet of Mountjoy is approximately 1 mile from Quintrell
Downs which has a number of public houses, a spar and post office and a train
station. More comprehensive shopping and educational facilities will be found
at Newquay (4 miles) and the Cathedral city of Truro (14 miles). The north
coast is famed for its excellent sandy beaches and within easy reach of the
property there are several, including Fistral and Watergate, popular with
water sports enthusiasts, and Porth, Crantock and Holywell Bay which tend to
be preferred by families. The coastal path offers superb walking and the quiet
country lanes are very popular with horse riders.
