St. Ewe, St. Austell £275,000

With Wisteria around the canopied stable door entrance and fabulous countryside setting with views, Gillie House is an idyllic country cottage in the hamlet of Kestle on the fringe of the Parish of St Ewe and within walking distance of the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Just a short distance is the picturesque fishing village of Mevagissey. The property is also in the catchment area for Hoglets Pre-School and the primary school in Gorran and for the Roseland Academy. This charming cottage really is a gem and is attractively presented retaining period features with modern additions including a wood burner, impressive bathroom and modern kitchen. The generous windows in both the lounge and the main bedroom offer fabulous views and the patio area of the garden is both delightful and private – ideal for that early morning cuppa listening to the dawn chorus, or a time with family and friends dining al fresco with a glass of wine as you watch the sun set. Gillie House really is your very own piece of paradise, offering a delightful home in a fabulous location. But don’t delay – the property is priced to sell and we anticipate many looking to invest in their own cottage in the country.
