A rare opportunity to acquire a character cottage of considerable age and atmosphere, set at the end of a quiet lane on the western edge of Nansallow. Ashmere Cottage stands apart — not merely in its rural position, but in the quality of its particulars.
The property is of traditional stone construction under a slate roof, with two working chimneys and original flagstone floors throughout the ground floor. There is a kitchen with original fittings, a sitting room with inglenook fireplace, a study with extensive built-in shelving, and three first-floor bedrooms of varying size. The bathroom has been updated within the last decade.
The grounds extend to approximately 0.4 acres, incorporating a productive kitchen garden, an orchard (hawthorn, apple, and one tree the agent was unable to identify), a walled herb section, and a stream forming the southern boundary. Visitors should note that the garden appears to be in considerably better condition than recent photographs suggest.
A room accessible from the outside of the property contains a number of items left by the previous occupant. These will be included in the sale. The agent recommends viewing.
The vendor is insistent on this point: the word for what you leave, placed at the end of the path, will open the next door.
some words are trying harder than others. They are very tastyApprox. location shown. The lane does not appear on standard mapping services.
