PRICE GUIDE £189,950.00
Nicely positioned within a tucked away cul-de-sac, in the ever popular and sought after rural village of Manaccan, this modern two bedroom terraced house has two allocated parking spaces and a neat enclosed garden to the rear.
Kensa Kew is a modern ‘courtyard style’ residential development located just moments from the heart of the village and its amenities including a primary school and village pub.
The property is subject to a section 106 local needs restriction which prospective purchasers will need to fulfill. Please see Agents Note Two below for full details.
Likely to appeal to first time buyers, or those seeking to gain a firmer foothold on the property ladder, the residence has a well appointed fitted kitchen and a spacious open plan living room with French doors that open out invitingly into the enclosed garden to the rear.
The rear decking enjoys a sunny rural outlook beyond neighbouring properties and would seem an ideal place in which to sit out and relax after a working day.
The master bedroom is a comfortable double and has a walk in wardrobe, whilst the second bedroom also has built in storage. Adjacent to the hallway is a very handy cloakroom with space for a washing machine whilst upstairs is a fitted bathroom suite including a panelled bath and shower.
The accommodation, in brief, comprises a hallway, cloakroom, kitchen, lounge/dining room, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The residence benefits from double glazing and an electric boiler.
Manaccan is a delightful rural village situated on the Lizard Peninsula which has been designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty. On the edge of the parish are the unspoilt waters of the Helford River with its sheltered creeks, opening out into Falmouth Bay and beyond; a mecca for the sailing enthusiast. The village itself has a primary school, a community owned thatched public house, Methodist chapel, 13th Century church and playing fields.
