PROPERTY 

Shangri-La is a wonderfully secluded rural property, positioned in a peaceful location. This traditional cottage is packed full of character and offers views across the countryside. With a large garden space the cottage provides an increasingly rare opportunity to renovate and extend an unspoilt rural property. The accommodation on the ground floor comprises of a front porch, sitting room and dining room which make up the original cottage, benefiting from all the character features one would expect such as fireplaces and sash windows. The property has been heavily extended at ground floor to include a kitchen, study, W/C, and utility room. In need of modernisation these areas offer potential for anyone looking to make improvements to a traditional cottage, subject to obtaining the necessary consents. The first floor includes two bedrooms, one of which overlooks the surrounding countryside. Stepping outside takes you into a large garden area approximately 450m2 in size and 140ft in length. The outdoor space is split between grass and paved areas, stretching down towards a small, wooded area. Situated at the end of the garden is a purpose-built summer house. There is also a pretty paved area and coal shed at the front of the property, which gives a distinctly Cornish feel.
