Description
With a wealth of options, this exceptionally well-finished barn conversion on the rural fringe of St Buryan offers three great size bedrooms, and two bathrooms; currently configured as a two bedroom home with a one bedroom annexe. The garden to the rear offers two potentially separate spaces between the living spaces, with an option for a further paddock/field by separate negotiation that benefits from vehicular access to it. The property further benefits from planning permission to extend at the rear; increasing living space further!
Thoughtfully designed, this exquisite home has been finished with some fantastic details that heighten its appeal: the main living space is open-plan with vaulted ceilings and exposed timbers and the many windows are all finished with solid slate cills. There is a hearty woodburning stove sitting central to the dual aspect living space that has a glazed door out to the garden. Two spacious double bedrooms with the same vaulted ceilings sit down the hallway alongside a very nicely equipped shower room with a walk-in shower and large glass screen.
Across the entrance hall is a door into a light and airy open-plan living space; currently used as annexe accommodation. A door off the living room area leads out to a private patio space, and there is a well-equipped kitchen area as well as a bathroom on this level. The bathroom has a double-ended bath with a shower over, completing the modern suite. A set of stairs in one corner of the open plan living room lead up to a beautiful mezzanine bedroom with large built-in storage cupboards and a large Velux rooflight offering views across fields towards Sennen.
The garden is lawned with a timber storage shed, an outside shower, and has been partitioned to create a private seating area for guests of the annexe. The garden offers fabulous, uninterrupted views out over fields toward Sennen and a five bar gate at the end leads on to an additional parcel of land/paddock that is available by separate negotiation if desired.
LOCATION
The village of St Buryan benefits from a traditional public house, post office/licensed village stores and a nearby well respected farm shop. There is a coffee shop also, called the Curious Coffee Pot recently opened. There is also primary schooling along with a Church and Chapel.

Approximately five miles distant is the famous surfing beach at Sennen Cove whilst the fabulous south coast beach of Porthcurno is even closer.
