May highlights
The gardens are looking their best, the days are getting longer and Cornwall is beginning to gear up for high summer. We’ve been hard at work bringing a fantastic variety of property to market and completing the sale of some excellent homes across the county. In May we listed waterside retreats, a unique and exciting renovation project (a former village school), a fisherman’s cottage and a number of spacious family homes perfectly placed for life in Cornwall.

With a substantial garden, double garage and extensive parking, it offers enormous potential for the next owners.
