Key Features

Summary

Lions Head Cottage is an attractive stone fronted cottage which offers flexible two/three bedroom accommodation with a choice of reception rooms and an enclosed mature rear garden set within the highly regarded village of Constantine.

Full Description

The property was the residence of a local renowned artist who painted at the property until she was 107 years old and even had a gallery there.

The property is now being sold with 'vacant possession' and due to the circumstances, is now in need of refreshment and updating throughout. However, this lovely bungalow sits in a superb, generous plot with elevated views over the countryside and its south facing garden with a good degree of privacy.

Offering spacious and well proportioned accommodation throughout, the bungalow benefits from oil-fired central heating and majority of UPVC double glazing and as previously mentioned, the property would benefit from refurbishment to reach its full potential.

The accommodation in brief comprises; a covered entrance porch, front door leading to an entrance hallway with concealed staircase leading to the first floor, main hallway with doors leading to the kitchen, breakfast room, separate dining room, lounge, shower room and three generous bedrooms on the ground floor. The living room has a stone fireplace housing a woodburner and at the rear of the kitchen is an orangery/conservatory. On the first floor there are a three large attic rooms with windows and radiators providing further accommodation (subject to the necessary planning permission and consents).

Outside the property is a driveway providing off road parking for a number of vehicles leading to a large detached garage of over 25' with workshop to the rear and windows providing a good degree of natural light.

The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with patios, mature flowerbeds with flower and shrub borders again enjoying fine views over the open countryside towards Goonhilly and The Lizard Peninsula.





The popular village of Constantine has a host of amenities at hand including two convenient stores with off licences, the Tolman Centre museum which hosts several events, Constantine social club with its recreation and children's playground. There is also a bowling green and Constantine has their own football and cricket teams. Other facilities include a doctor’s surgery, highly regarded primary/junior school, Constantine parish church, The Cornish Arms public house and the Trengilly Wartha Inn just outside the village. There is also a local bus service which provides links from Helston to Falmouth.

We highly recommend an internal viewing to fully appreciate what this property has to offer.
