An exceptional, highly adaptable four-bedroom character cottage set within approximately one acre of beautiful grounds. Nestled in a quiet, highly desirable rural hamlet, the property boasts a pretty, Mediterranean-style courtyard garden, direct access to the famous Camel Trail, and incredible, future-proof eco-credentials.
Accommodation & Adaptable Layout:
Hillside Cottage offers a unique, flexible layout perfectly split into two distinct wings, each comprising two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom, and an independent staircase. This intelligent setup is ideal for multi-generational families, guest accommodation, or potential formal separation (subject to relevant permissions). For buyers wishing to unify the property, excellent scope exists to create a link between the two staircases to open up the first-floor layout.
The generously sized rooms beautifully blend period charm with modern upgrades. Characterful inglenook fireplaces house log-burner-style Calor gas fires in both lounges, with the main lounge further benefiting from a traditional log burner. The principal bedroom suite enjoys an attached conservatory/reading room, offering a peaceful, private retreat. The main kitchen was fully refurbished approximately five years ago and comes equipped with premium integrated Neff and Bosch appliances. The entire home is double glazed throughout.
Energy, Heating & Infrastructure:
The property stands out for its extensive, state-of-the-art energy infrastructure, making it very energy efficient. A 22-panel solar array coupled with a high-capacity Tesla Powerwall battery system (installed late 2024) works alongside a cutting-edge Bosch heat pump (installed 2025). This green energy ecosystem is further complimented by German Fischer radiators fitted throughout the entire property.
Additional infrastructure updates include a fully compliant, modern septic tank sewage processing system that was installed just two years ago. Security is paramount, with a full alarm system featuring day/night modes, comprehensive external security lighting, and infrared lighting over the car park. External electrics are also fully installed at the boundary, ready for a future electric gate installation.
Outbuildings & Ancillary Potential:
The grounds feature an impressive collection of versatile outbuildings. A standout asset is the separate, detached, two-storey studio. Overlooking the River Camel and benefiting from its own independent parking area, the studio is fully connected to electricity, water, and sewage, offering clear potential for conversion into a separate two-bedroom dwelling (subject to planning).
Relaxation and hobbies are well catered for with a pretty, Mediterranean-style courtyard garden complete with a courtyard shed and an elegant, bespoke oak-and-glass covered canopy providing a cozy space for outdoor dining. The grounds also feature a fully furnished summer house equipped with a cozy coal burner for year-round use, a covered double swing bed in the rear garden, and a large, heavy-duty tool shed/workshop built on a solid cement base. The workshop is fully fitted internally, with mains electric and the sale includes a ride-on lawnmower if required.
Gardens & Grounds:
The idyllic grounds are a true highlight for nature lovers. The mature, well-established gardens feature seasonal wild flora, including carpets of bluebells, primroses, and wild garlic. For home production, there are several fruit trees alongside three raised vegetable beds.The grounds are highly practical, featuring six water butts, two compost areas, a sophisticated self-watering irrigation system (covering the main house, studio, car park, and the first tier of the rear garden), and two dedicated log stores. To get the new owner started, approximately four years worth of seasoned logs are included in the sale. Parking is generous, with a gated parking area utilised by the main house. The studio parking includes an undercover car port. There is also an additional gated car park within the rear garden.
Location:
Situated in the scenic, peaceful hamlet of Hellandbridge, the property combines idyllic rural seclusion with excellent connectivity. It provides direct, immediate access to the Camel Trail for walking and cycling. The comprehensive amenities, supermarkets, schools, and transport links of Bodmin are just a short drive away.
