Acorn Cottage is a spacious detached three-bedroom character Cottage, consisting of an original barn built of traditional Cornish Stone construction and surmounted by a natural slate roof, to which a more modern extension has been added in the past. It is situated in an extremely quiet cul de sac position in the hamlet of Penrose.

The property underwent a significant scheme of modernisation in 2021 which included installing a refurbished Mark Wilkinson (Smallbone of Devizes) hand-built Kitchen, contemporary Bathrooms, a new oil-fired central heating system, complete electrical re-wiring, improved insulation and a change of layout internally, necessitating new ceramic or Karndean flooring throughout. The scheme of works was continued in 2023 when new gutters and fascias were installed.

The cottage offers flexible accommodation including:- 

  • Bespoke hand built Kitchen
  • Delightfully spacious Living Room with vaulted ceilings and French Doors providing access to the front Patio
  • The Living accommodation is complimented by an equally spacious double bedroom with French Doors providing access to the Patio and contemporary en-suite bathroom
  • Two further bedrooms

The property is surrounded by delightful Gardens on all four elevations, with a large additional patio area in the rear garden. Within the rear Garden there are two Garden Stores and a Greenhouse, whilst the garden itself backs onto open countryside (AONB), and features a small gate which gives direct access to the well-defined public footpath which leads from Penrose down to Porthcothan Beach and thus to the SW Coastal Path.

Viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the qualities this property has to offer.
