Outside

Ivy cottage sits in the tranquil village of Penhalurick, Stithians, where you will find beautiful countryside walks through woodlands and around Stithians lake.

The large parking area is supplied by water, private sewage, power, and even broadband, which lends itself to a vast array of options for a separate annex, workshops or stables (Subject to planning). Adjacent to the car park is an enclosed paddock with two field shelters and running water. To the rear of the paddock is a further smaller paddock and the beautiful nature reserve incorporating a small lake and woodlands which support local wildlife such as dragonflies, beavers and various species of birds.
The neighbouring field adjacent to the larger paddock may be rented out on a long term basis. The 1.52 acre field would be suitable for horses, sheep or other animals. Rental cost would need to be negotiated with the land owner.
Alongside the large lawned garden there is a large patio which enjoys the south-facing aspect and total privacy. There is also a granite chipped garden area with mains power for a hot tub. Behind this, and attached to the main building, is the original 200 year old School House which is currently used as storage. A double garage can be found at the end of the main drive.
