JEFFERYS of Lostwithiel are offering a charming three-bedroom terraced cottage near the town which is one of five terraced former mill workers' cottages.

Situated in the much-sought-after, pretty hamlet of Polscoe which is conveniently located about one mile from the historic county town of Lostwithiel, the property is on the market at £240,000.

The accommodation, which is spread over three floors, comprises a lounge/dining room on the ground floor, master bedroom, family bathroom, kitchen/breakfast room on the first floor and two further bedrooms on the second floor.

A particular feature of the property is its immaculate gardens. Set to the rear of the property the gardens, which are of sunny aspect, include a paved patio area and lawned area with a wide array of mature flowers and shrubs in beds and borders. There is also a vegetable plot.

A natural stone path from the patio area leads through the lower lawns up to the higher garden, which again has a wealth of specimen flowers and shrubs. There is also an attractive fishpond with raised stone surround and seating area to the side and a further vegetable plot with a greenhouse.

The property also has a large garage/workshop, which, subject to the necessary planning consents, could be utilised as an annexe or holiday cottage for letting potential.
