Offered for sale for the first time ever, Railway Cottage is an original signalman's cottage at Boscarne Junction when the trainline ran along what is now the Camel Trail from Bodmin to Wadebridge.  Having been in the same family ownership for just under 60 years, the cottage enjoys an almost unique location alongside the Camel Trail whilst enjoying the most wonderful south facing views over surrounding countryside towards the River Camel.  Set in generous gardens and grounds of about a third of an acre which include a double garage, the cottage offers spacious living accommodation comprising a 5.7m kitchen/dining room together with 2 reception rooms and utility on the ground floor.  At first floor there are 4 bedrooms and 2 shower rooms with the accommodation having the benefit of oil fired central heating and UPVC double glazing.  Offering tremendous potential, Railway Cottage could benefit from a degree of modernisation and updating however enjoys the most wonderful setting and location.  


 


The banks of the River Camel are a short walk away from the cottage with the Camel Trail literally being on its doorstep.  The village of Nanstallon is close by with Bodmin being just over 2.5 miles distant by car and Wadebridge about 6 miles away.  The main arterial route of the A30 is also within a short drive providing swift links to the rest of the county.  The cottage is also adjacent to Boscarne Station which is at the end of the Bodmin & Wenford Heritage Railway as well as being within walking distance of the local public house at Dunmere and Bodmin town being not much more than a mile up the trail by foot.
