A quaint Cornish Cottage situated in a charming rural village location within easy reach of the North Coast.

An opportunity to purchase an enchanting two-bedroom Cornish Cottage located in the sought-after village of Chapel Amble where properties rarely come to the market. The property lies just a few miles from the beaches of the Cornish North Coast and is available for sale for the first time in almost 25 years and benefits from no onward chain. For sale by private treaty.

PROPERTY
Old Forge Cottage comprises an attractive two-bedroom semi-detached cottage with gardens and outbuildings to the rear and a separate detached workshop. The original cottage has been extended over time and provides well-proportioned accommodation. On the ground floor, the cottage benefits from a light and airy sitting room divided in two by a central staircase, kitchen-diner and downstairs wet room. To the first floor are two double bedrooms, one of which benefits from an en-suite shower room. Outside, to the rear of the property is a patio area with steps and a pathway leading to attractive tiered gardens, providing a variety of distinctive and private areas. Currently offering a natural wildlife haven, the garden could be used for vegetable growing or landscaped as one may wish. There is a summerhouse, as well as a useful outbuilding, which provides storage space for garden tools and machinery. The garden space offers prospective purchasers the opportunity to enjoy alfresco dining and to put their own stamp on how it is used. The rear garden space can also be accessed by a separate pedestrian gateway to the side of the cottage. The property includes a separate detached stone wall and slate roof workshop, which measures approximately 200 sq ft and is situated a few metres away from the front elevation. This provides a further source of useful storage space, or one that could be used as a workshop or office.

It also has various amenities including the popular Maltsters Arms public house as well as a village shop.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

When you see a property you are interested in on our website, call us 24/7 to arrange a viewing. Or if you prefer, get in touch via our website and we will call you back to find a time to view the property that suits you.

Once you’ve found a property you want to buy, it’s time to make an offer. A bit of negotiation is to be expected, however don't offer so little that you end up in a lengthy negotiation process, as you might lose the property altogether if someone else makes a higher bid.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.

If you have a property to sell, why not see how we can help you.

Or if you’re considering letting your property, we can take the stress out of managing your rental, and our award winning lettings team offer a service that can be tailored to your needs.
