3 bed property for sale

Sparry Lane, Carharrack, Redruth TR16

*auction, auction, auction* Offered for sale with joint auctioneer Clive Emson on 12th June 2025.

This unusual cottage dates back to the 1800’s and was once four miners cottages. It is believed that when copper and tin was not so viable in Cornwall the workers were shipped out to South America to Guadeloupe - hence the name! The property oozes character and has been mostly renovated with some works still to be completed.

The cottage has four reception rooms, two with inglenook fireplaces and a dining room with an original Cornish Range. There is a stunning modern kitchen and utility, a principal bedroom en-suite and two further bedrooms plus a family bathroom. Outside is a generous garden and ample parking.

The work already done includes new windows, doors, central heating system, electrics, a new kitchen and bathrooms. The property is being sold as is, so the opportunity exists for buyers to put their own stamp on the home with some works remaining. The radiators, some of the flooring and internal doors will be available for the lucky buyer to use to complete the buildings and the drawings for the steel and oak staircase.

The very generous walled garden is absolutely beautiful with an arched gateway entrance and there are two greenhouses - one with a grape vine, a wrap around large patio, two ponds, a variety of established mature shrubs and plants to include lily of the valley, bluebells, primroses, beech tree and an oak tree. There is also a lodge in the garden which could lend itself to be an annexe or AirBnB, subject to the necessary consents. To the front there is a generous driveway with ample parking for several cars.
