Situated within the rural hamlet of Twelveheads, Hammerton House is a detached rural cottage set in large gardens and with the added benefit of a detached log cabin at the top of the garden.

The property has been partially renovated and now requires finishing.

Hammerton House offers lots of character and there is now the potential to complete the project to the new owner’s taste. There are two double size bedrooms on the first floor, both of which enjoy a rural outlook and a shower room.

The kitchen has a contemporary theme with a combination of stainless steel and gloss finished units and features a peninsular bar, there is a lounge/dining room with exposed wood floorboards which gives access to a further lounge featuring a floor to ceiling stone fireplace with a wood burner.

To the front there is a generous sun room and accessed from the lounge/dining room is a utility room/second kitchen.

Largely double glazed, in addition to open fires there is an LPG gas fired central heating system.

The gardens lie mainly to the rear of the property and are mainly lawned with planted shrubs and feature space for alfresco dining.

The ‘secret cabin’ at the top of the garden has a rustic theme and includes a lounge with wood burner, kitchen and bedroom with an en-suite shower room.

Accessed from the lounge is a mezzanine level which gives additional sleeping accommodation. To the front of the cabin is a wrap around deck which gives access to an outside entertainment area with space for a barbecue.

There is, in our opinion, a great deal of scope with this property with the ability to obtain an income by letting long term, or holiday letting, the ‘secret cabin’ (subject to any
necessary consents).

Viewing our interactive virtual tour is strongly recommended prior to arranging a closer inspection.

The hamlet of Twelveheads, situated in the heart of Cornwall’s mining past, is conveniently located for access to the county town of Truro, the university town of Falmouth on the south coast and the north coast village of Porthtowan, which is noted for its sandy beach and surfing.

Mainline railway stations will be found at Redruth and Truro.

Twelveheads is home to ‘Bon Appetit’ which is well respected locally as a restaurant serving breakfast, brunches and lunches.

There is easy access to the Poldice Valley, popular with cyclists and walkers and the coast to coast cycle way is nearby.
