Description
Double fronted detached four bedroom cottage full of character and charm but in need of a scheme of improvement throughout. Set in large, level gardens and grounds of approximately one acre on the outskirts of Carleen, near Helston. Sold with no onward chain.
The Property
Solon Morn is a detached, double fronted cottage set in an acre of land - including a paddock - on the outskirts of Carleen. Once providing modest two bedroom accommodation the property was extended substantially at the rear during the 1990s to provide the four bedroom family home it is today, which though much-loved and full of character is now in need of upgrading and improvement throughout. The property presents a wonderful opportunity to purchase a lifestyle property as the grounds, which extend to approximately one acre in total, are ideal for those looking for space, privacy, room for vegetable growing, keeping chickens or even for a small pony.
The accommodation comprises; entrance porch, hall with storage cupboards, large sitting room with two fireplaces (one being a granite inglenook) and open beamed ceiling, w.c. and kitchen/dining room to the ground floor with four bedrooms - three of which are doubles - and a family bathroom to the first floor.
To the front of the cottage is an enclosed, level lawned garden whilst at the rear is a parking and turning area, a double garage and an enclosed, level paddock of approximately two thirds of an acre. The grounds at Solon Morn total approximately one acre in all.
Location
Carleen is a small village set on the outskirts of Helston. The village offers a village hall and bus route but every day amenities are available in Breage (approximately one and a half miles distant) which offers a public house, social club, convenience store with Post Office, primary school, parish Church and nearby is the highly regarded Trevenna Cross Nurseries garden centre together with a café. Helston (approximately 3 miles distant) offers a much wider range of facilities including a high street with national multiples and independent shops, eateries, supermarkets, primary and secondary schooling. Within 8 miles at Hayle is a mainline railway link to Truro and to London (Paddington).
