Key Features

Summary

This CHARMING 18TH CENTURY TWO/THREE BEDROOM DETACHED FARMHOUSE with an ATTACHED ANCILLARY ANNEXE AND EXTENSIVE RANGE OF OUTBUILDINGS (ripe for conversion) is set in a prominent location, just of the main A39 Helston to Falmouth road within driving distance to the beautiful Lizard peninsula and Helford river estuary, plus the rugged coastline with beaches and coastal walks.

Full Description

The property that was converted only 9 years ago to a very high standard is located at the end of a country lane and is one of only three properties that all enjoy their own driveway parking facilities. The barn is set in a superb, tranquil country location close to the village of Gweek and has pleasing granite stone and tile hung elevations complemented by wood framed double glazed windows and wood panelled doors plus wholly owned solar panels that are discretely installed to the side of the building. There is also a natural water supply that is pumped up to the barn.

The property offers versatile accommodation comprising; open portico to front door, open plan lounge/diner and fitted kitchen plus a spacious utility and cloakroom to the ground floor. To the first floor there is a spacious landing area with doors off to the three double bedrooms (principal en-suite) and a family four piece bathroom. To the outside of the property there is a large driveway with ample parking and turning facilities for a number of large vehicles plus a gated concrete area that gives access to the stables and in turn leads to the adjoining fields. There is a paved path/patio adjacent the side and rear of the property where you can 'step down' to an area of lawn surrounded by mature trees.

The village of Gweek is well served with a range of everyday facilities including a convenience store, the Black Swan public house and restaurant, boat yard, Gweek Seal Sanctuary and a village hall. The historic borough town of Helston, the home of the 'Furry Dance' is nearby and offers a more comprehensive range of facilities including shops, schools, supermarkets, sporting and leisure facilities.

As the vendors sole agents, we highly recommend an early appointment to view.
