General Comments - Riverside Cottage is a Grade II listed house, is situated within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) on the picturesque banks of the Percuil River in St Just-in-Roseland.
Nestled in the serene beauty of the Roseland Peninsula, this special home offers a unique blend of luxury and tranquillity.

The accommodation, recently extended and meticulously finished to the highest standards, provides a stunning living experience. Every detail has been carefully considered to ensure both comfort and elegance, making it a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
Spanning approximately 1.5 acres, the property boasts glorious, established gardens and grounds that provide a picturesque setting throughout the seasons. The landscape offers a special place to escape, yet also with potential for further development with an area of level garden and separate access, there is tremendous potential for a building plot subject to consents.
This is more than just a home; it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of hidden Cornwall in one of the most magical locations on the Roseland Peninsula.
The Property - Comprehensively renovated and extended by the current owners in recent years, the property offers the best of old and new with the original cottage fronting the riverside and a modern extension to the side and rear. Comprising three bedrooms, an en-suite and bathroom to the first floor with an open plan kitchen/dining room, formal dining room, lounge, utility and shower room.
The detached Boat House has recently been converted into a studio annexe with a balcony overlooking the river, ideal for guests or holiday letting.
The cottage is situated on a building platform supported by quay walls, akin to many riverside structures in the region. Historical maps indicate that its construction dates back to the late 17th century or at least the 18th century. Analysing its waterfront location and proximity to old quay walls suggests that the cottage was originally intended to house individuals involved in fishing or local industry.
The terraced nature of the site implies a history of quarrying activities, indicating that the house and quay were likely connected to this industry.
The Roseland - Riverside Cottage is situated in the cherished and safeguarded landscape of the Roseland Heritage Coast. With convenient access to Truro, Falmouth, and St Austell, the Roseland Peninsula is a highly desirable location. However, it is the beautiful beaches, picturesque coastlines, and scenic rivers that truly exemplify its esteemed 'Heritage Coast' designation.
The village of St Just is most widely known for its historic church and churchyard set beside the beautiful tidal creek where subtropical plants grow alongside the native trees and flora. Here is also a popular cafe/tea room. The village has a bus route which goes via surrounding villages to Truro.
The property is also close to St Mawes and this has an international reputation as one of the country's most sought after areas in which to reside with a distinctive Mediterranean atmosphere. The village of St Mawes provides a good selection of individual shops including a small supermarket, delicatessen, hotels, restaurants, inns, primary school and a very active sailing club.
The whole of the Roseland Peninsula is designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty and offers superb scenery and walks, a number of beautiful beaches, coves and a general feeling of peace and tranquility. At St. Mawes there is a passenger ferry to the historic harbour town of Falmouth and the King Harry car ferry provides for an easy commute to Falmouth and the Cathedral city of Truro.
