*Ritino, Carnkie – A Versatile Five-Bedroom Country Home with over 1 Acre, Outbuildings & Exceptional Lifestyle Potential - A truly special family home that effortlessly blends space, lifestyle, and opportunity in one exceptional Cornish setting*
Positioned in the heart of Carnkie, this impressive and beautifully presented five-bedroom semi-detached home offers far more than first meets the eye. Set within over 1 acre of mature paddock, gardens, and productive land, Ritino is perfectly suited to families, multi-generational living, or those seeking a more self-sufficient rural lifestyle without sacrificing everyday convenience.
Spanning 124.3m², the accommodation is generously proportioned, with light-filled, bright and airy rooms that create a welcoming and flexible living environment. The layout allows the home to adapt easily to modern family life, home working, or shared living arrangements, while still retaining a warm and homely feel throughout.
Externally, this property is where Ritino truly shines. The grounds include established gardens, an allotment, a polytunnel, and a peaceful pond area, offering a rare sense of calm and connection to nature. The stunning alfresco sun terrace provides the perfect setting for long summer evenings, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying the tranquillity of your surroundings.
For those with practical needs or lifestyle ambitions, the property delivers in abundance. A double garage, multiple outbuildings, and extensive gated off-road parking make this an ideal home for tradespeople, hobbyists, or anyone considering running a small business from home. The land offers exciting potential for a smallholding lifestyle, with ample space for chickens, ducks, goats, or even a pony – a dream for those with green fingers or a passion for country living.
Despite its rural feel, Ritino remains wonderfully well connected. The property is just a short drive from Falmouth, The Lizard and Redruth, and perfectly positioned to enjoy both the north and south coast beaches, making coastal adventures, countryside walks, and everyday amenities all easily accessible.
In short, Ritino is a home that ticks an exceptional number of boxes: space, land, versatility, privacy, and location. It offers a rare opportunity to embrace the true Cornish rural lifestyle, while still enjoying the comfort, convenience, and flexibility that modern family life demands.
Approached via a sweeping driveway, the property immediately impresses as it curves around to the rear, opening into an immense gated off-road parking area with space for numerous vehicles—ideal for family life, entertaining, or those with business or hobby requirements.
You enter the home through the rear conservatory porch, a wonderfully practical and inviting space, perfect for storing coats and shoes. Elevated above the garden and sun terrace, it also provides a peaceful spot to sit and relax with a book while enjoying views over the outdoor space.
From here, you step directly into the heart of the home—the impressive open-plan, dual-aspect kitchen diner. This is a truly generous room, designed for entertaining and everyday family living alike. With ample space for a large dining table at its centre, it’s a place where everyone naturally gathers. The kitchen is well appointed with abundant cupboard space, purposeful work areas, and a light, airy feel throughout. Views extend through the adjoining sun room and out onto the garden and sun terrace, creating seamless indoor/outdoor living. From here, you can prepare meals while keeping an eye on children playing outside or guests enjoying the terrace.
A small step up leads into the cosy lounge, where a striking granite fireplace and log burner create a warm and welcoming atmosphere—perfect for snug winter evenings and relaxed family nights.
Returning to the hallway, there is access to the front door, the front garden, and the beautiful white wooden twist staircase rising to the first floor. To the front of the property is a large, light-filled ground-floor double bedroom with its own modern en-suite shower room. This highly versatile space is ideal for multi-generational living, but could also serve as a playroom, snug, home office, or formal dining room. The contemporary downstairs shower room is spacious, bright, and thoughtfully finished.
Upstairs, the twist staircase opens onto a spacious and impressive landing, flooded with natural light and showcasing a stunning stained-glass window. With room for built-in storage and even a seating area, the landing sets the tone for the surprisingly generous accommodation that follows.
