Every month hundreds of properties come on the market in Cornwall. They range from small one-bedroom homes to grand estates with deep history. But a handful always stand out. Every few weeks we share the five most viewed properties in the area, according to Zoopla.
The reasons vary: decor, location, size, or price. These five have caught the eye of the most potential buyers this month. They include cottages, a historic estate, and a peaceful property with a decent garden.
Described as one of the finest private coastal estates in the UK, Rosteague Estate sits on 183 acres fronting Gerrans Bay on the Roseland Peninsula. The Grade II listed six-bedroom manor house has more than a mile of direct sea frontage. Its gardens include a historic formal knot garden, woodland, pasture, and arable land. Marketed by Lillicrap Chillcott, the estate is being sold for the first time in a generation. The guide price is £12,500,000. View the Zoopla listing, here.
A thatched cottage near Tehidy is another of the most viewed Zoopla listings in Cornwall for August. The two-bedroom Grade II listed cottage is finished to an exceptional standard and looks like something out of Hansel and Gretel. It has parking and landscaped gardens extending to roughly a sixth of an acre, on the edge of the historic Tehidy Estate. It has previously been used as a holiday let. Marketed by Lillicrap Chillcott, the guide price is £495,000. View the Zoopla listing, here.
A detached house near Constantine also made the list. The four-bedroom property sits in a private and peaceful location. It needs modernisation but offers countryside views and a garden of about a third of an acre. The same owner has lived there for 33 years, and the price reflects the work required. The guide price is £300,000, and the property is already sold subject to contract. View the Zoopla listing, here.
Cracky Hill Cottage is a detached four-bedroom property described as perfect for families or holiday letting. It has exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace, along with off-road parking and private gardens. It sits close to the A30 and is within walking distance of a village pub. Marketed by Kivells in Launceston, the guide price is £545,000. View the Zoopla listing, here.
A one-bedroom cottage in Polperro is described as "delightful" and a charming retreat in the fishing village. It combines traditional and modern elements and has a patio garden with views over the village. Marketed by Seasons Estate & Lettings Agents, it is already sold subject to contract. The guide price is £200,000. View the Zoopla listing, here.
