Higher Trevarthen, Grumbla, Cornwall, TR20

Between pretty Sancreed and popular St Just, is a leafy country lane leading to this idyllic, detached cottage with flexible accommodation and pretty garden area.

Step through the entrance porch in to your inviting sitting room with an impressive woodburner set on a slate hearth in front of exposed granite. Off one side of the sitting room, there is a second reception room which would make an ideal home office with wooden stairs leading to a mezzanine currently set up as the third bedroom. The bedroom area has a distinctly treehouse feel , with Velux rooflights looking out to trees.

At the opposite end of the cottage is the immaculately presented kitchen which has space for a dining table and a sofa. Off the spacious kitchen is a practical utility space for all laundry appliances, with access also to a downstairs WC.

Bright, open-tread stairs lead up from the kitchen to the landing, lit by a uPVC double glazed window halfway up. Off the landing is the master bedroom at one end: a large double bedroom with two windows and a stable door leading out to characterful granite steps. Along the landing is the second bedroom and the family bathroom. The bathroom boasts not only a full-size bath, but a separate shower enclosure, all presented in very good order indeed.

Outside, there is a pleasant seating area at the front of the cottage with useful storage sheds and parking for two cars. Granite steps lead you up to a raised lawned area with beds, and shrubs: offering a further seating area and space for a washing line. A short walk up or down the lane will take you to some of West Cornwall's most beautiful rural viewpoints.

Grumbla is a small settlement in between St Just and Sancreed - peaceful and quiet with easy access to the popular towns of St Just or Penzance.

Sancreed is a much sought-after, quiet hamlet minutes away from Penzance, off the A30 in West Cornwall but free of passing traffic and noise. The village is in the civil parish of Sancreed and is approximately two miles west of Penzance, and six miles from Land's End. Surrounded by Cornish countryside this pretty parish boasts Church, Village Hall, numerous country walks and the nearby Drift Reservoir.
