Lowertown, Helston, Cornwall, TR13

A PRIVATE FOUR-BEDROOM DETACHED COUNTRY HOME WITH SEPARATE LODGE, SUBSTANTIAL GARAGING, WORKSHOPS, THREE STORAGE LODGES, AND ESTABLISHED COBER VALLEY GARDENS.

Property
Tucked away within the peaceful hamlet of Lowertown, Lowena is a distinctive four-bedroom detached country home offering privacy, character and particularly versatile accommodation in a wonderfully secluded position within the Cober Valley. Together with the independent one-bedroom Harveys Lodge, substantial garaging, stabling and established private gardens, the property offers an unusual degree of flexibility for family life, multi-generational living and those requiring generous ancillary space.

.
Approached via a quiet bridleway and private drive, Lowena combines traditional Cornish character with comfortable modern living. Exposed timbers, natural stonework and vaulted ceilings give the house considerable warmth and individuality, while generous glazing brings plenty of natural light into the principal rooms and creates a strong connection with the gardens.

.
The kitchen and dining room provide a sociable space for everyday family life and entertaining, with a wood-burning stove creating a welcoming focal point alongside handcrafted cabinetry and generous preparation space. From here, the accommodation flows into an impressive vaulted reception room centred around a feature fireplace, with doors opening directly onto the terrace and herb garden.

.
The bedroom accommodation has been arranged to provide excellent flexibility. The principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite bathroom with spa bath and a walk-in dressing room, while three further bedrooms, including one with a balcony overlooking the gardens, are served by a family bathroom and cloakroom. Attractive outlooks across the gardens, woodland and surrounding countryside reinforce the property's connection with its rural setting.

External
Outside, Lowena is surrounded by its own established and private gardens, with lawns, mature planting and terraces creating a variety of sheltered spaces for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation. The surrounding trees and vegetation provide a particularly secluded atmosphere and help the property feel immersed within its rural setting.

.
The gardens form a natural extension of the accommodation, particularly from the vaulted reception room where doors open directly onto the terrace and herb garden. Although manageable in scale, the grounds enjoy the wider backdrop of the wooded Cober Valley, creating a wonderful sense of space, privacy and connection with the countryside.

.
A particularly useful addition is Harveys Lodge, a detached and self-contained one-bedroom property providing valuable secondary accommodation. The lodge comprises a living/bedroom space together with its own facilities and offers excellent flexibility for visiting family, guests or independent relatives.

.
The ancillary buildings are another notable feature of Lowena. A substantial detached garage/barn, extending to approximately 31' x 21', together with workshop space, provides an exceptional amount of practical space alongside the main house. This provision lends itself to vehicle storage, workshop use, hobbies and recreational equipment.

Location
Lowertown is a peaceful rural hamlet situated just outside the market town of Helston, one of Cornwall's oldest and most characterful communities. The town offers a good range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets, schools and everyday amenities, with Trannack Primary School also within easy reach.

.
The nearby harbour village of Porthleven is renowned for its working harbour, restaurants, galleries and coastal walks, while the Lizard Peninsula provides access to some of Cornwall's finest beaches and countryside. The Helford River is also within easy reach, offering further opportunities for walking, sailing and paddleboarding.

.
Despite its tucked-away valley setting, Lowena remains conveniently placed for Helston and the south Cornish coast. The combination of a substantial main residence, independent accommodation, extensive ancillary space and private gardens makes it an unusually flexible country home.
