Description

A well-presented 3/4-bedroom period cottage dating back to the mid-1700’s; the property boasts some wonderful character features which have been lovingly maintained while still offering updated practicalities such as the modern kitchen. Externally the gardens have been shown equal care and attention providing further character and beauty with large rear lawn and orchard areas, gravel patio, peace and cottage garden with work area including large green house to the far boundary.

Given the character and beauty of the property and its location, being set in the convenient and sought after North Cornish village of Marshgate, which is only a short distance to the popular harbour of Boscastle and beach at Crackington Haven, an internal inspection is advised to fully appreciate Pentykelly.

Location

Pentykelly rests within the quiet village of Marshgate, a semi-rural village on the North Cornish coast which has its own Post Office/General Store, walking distance to Otterham primary school (with excellent Ofsted report) and Public House in the adjacent village of Tresparrett. Additionally there is convenient access to nearby commuter links providing access to West Cornwall, North Cornwall and North Devon via the A39. Secondary schooling can be found in the nearby town of Camelford and further up the A39 in the popular coastal town of Bude.

Additionally the property is positioned within some 15 miles of the A30 which opens commuter links to Exeter, Plymouth and the national motorway network. The harbour village of Boscastle is only 4 miles with a variety of shops, post office, restaurants and well frequented public inns. In the upper part of the village you will find a petrol filling station, primary school, doctors surgery and popular Napoleon Inn public house. The picturesque Bay of Crackington Haven is some 3.5 miles distant with its own public house, café, popular beach and spectacular coastal walks.
