Description
A charming three bedroom detached period cottage set within a generous plot of just under one acre, occupying a peaceful and picturesque position in the sought-after rural village of Rilla Mill.
Full of character and traditional features, this delightful home dates back to the 17th century and retains an abundance of period charm, including exposed oak beams which add warmth and individuality throughout.
The ground floor comprises a welcoming kitchen/breakfast room, providing a practical and sociable space for everyday living, together with a separate dining room and comfortable living room. A convenient downstairs WC completes the ground-floor accommodation.
To the first floor, the property offers a spacious master bedroom with an adjoining dressing room, providing a particularly attractive feature and excellent additional storage. There are also two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Outside, the property sits within an exceptionally generous plot extending to just under an acre, offering plenty of scope for enjoying the surrounding countryside and creating a variety of outdoor spaces. The garden also benefits from its own well, adding further character and interest to the grounds.
There is on-street parking available without the need for a permit, while a garage to the rear provides useful storage or parking.
The property is positioned next to a public footpath, making it particularly appealing to those who enjoy walking and the outdoors. Rilla Mill is surrounded by beautiful countryside, woodland and waterways, with local walks extending through the surrounding woodland and along the River Lynher.
The peaceful setting, generous land and proximity to woodland and the stream make this an ideal property for those looking for a rural lifestyle. The character and location could also make the property an attractive proposition as a holiday cottage or second home, subject to any necessary consents and requirements.
Rilla Mill itself is a small rural village with local amenities including a village pub, while the larger towns of Callington and Liskeard provide a broader range of shops, services and facilities.
Overall, this is a unique and characterful three bedroom detached cottage, offering a rare combination of period features, a generous plot of almost an acre, a dressing room to the master bedroom, garage, garden well and immediate access to beautiful countryside walks.
Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the size and potential of this property.
Buyer Process: Our customers use British Homebuyers to either purchase or assist in selling properties quickly and reliably. Therefore any new applicants to purchase are subject to vetting to ensure they meet strict criteria.
Exclusivity Fee:
You can secure the purchase by paying an exclusivity fee of £2,000. This grants the buyer exclusive rights to proceed with the purchase for the duration of the conveyancing process, during which time the seller agrees to remove the property from the market and not negotiate with other parties.
The exclusivity fee is returned to the buyer upon successful completion of the purchase.
A processing fee of £250 is required in order to draw up an exclusive legally binding contract between the buyer and seller. This fee also covers the buyer identity verification checks required under UK Anti-Money Laundering Regulations, which are carried out by our independent third-party provider. The agreement sets out the terms of exclusivity and seller commitment but does not constitute an exchange of contracts.
This arrangement provides buyers with reassurance that the property is secured exclusively for them, reducing the risk of gazumping and unnecessary aborted costs.
