Description

Situated on the outskirts of Lostwithiel, Lower Demesnes is as peaceful and picturesque as its surroundings. The properties sit within just over 9 acres of well-maintained gardens and open fields and orchards. The main residence is a beautifully renovated farmhouse full of charm and period features. In addition, there are three further cottages, currently operating as successful holiday lets.

The Main House.

Full of character and original features—including beamed ceilings and charming rustic details—this property has been a much-loved family home for many years. The ground floor features a spacious kitchen, a generous dining room that opens into the large living room, and a cozy snug complete with a log burner, perfect for those colder evenings. This floor also features a utility room and WC for added convenience. Upstairs, the property continues to impress, offering three well proportioned double bedrooms, one of which benefits from en suite shower facilities. Most rooms enjoy peaceful views over the surrounding land and feature built-in storage cupboards. This floor also includes a spacious family bathroom and a versatile office, which could serve as a fourth bedroom if desired.

Outside, the property continues to impress with its beautifully maintained surroundings. A low-maintenance pebbled area provides a wonderful space for outdoor seating—an ideal spot to relax, dine, or simply take in the tranquil setting. A small outbuilding offers convenient storage for garden tools or outdoor equipment. In addition, the property benefits from a generous driveway with ample space to accommodate several vehicles.

Roosters Cottage

Currently operating as a successful two-bedroom holiday let, this charming cottage is beautifully maintained and presented to a high standard, making it an excellent investment opportunity or a peaceful personal retreat.

Split over two floors and accessible from the main house, the accommodation features a spacious open-plan layout that seamlessly combines a well equipped kitchen with a comfortable and inviting living area—ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Two modern bathrooms are conveniently positioned, along with two well proportioned double bedrooms that offer plenty of space and comfort.

Outside, a large private patio provides a superb spot to soak up the Cornish sunshine or enjoy al fresco dining, adding to the cottage's overall appeal.

Byre Cottage

This well-maintained holiday cottage offers a peaceful countryside retreat and is an ideal opportunity for buyers seeking a successful holiday let or a private escape. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area is made especially inviting by a cosy log burner—perfect for creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

The property features one comfortable double bedroom and a modern bathroom, all designed to make the most of the space. With private parking and a strong history of guest bookings, it's a standout option for those looking to invest in established holiday homes.

Wagon House

Beautifully presented throughout, Wagon House offers a bright and spacious open-plan living area along with a generously sized double bedroom, providing comfortable and stylish accommodation.

The cottage is fully equipped and tastefully furnished, ready to welcome guests for another successful holiday season. It also features a private garden patio—ideal for outdoor dining, morning coffee, or simply relaxing in the fresh country air.

Situated alongside two other holiday cottages, Wagon House is a well maintained and appealing option for those looking to invest in three thriving holiday lets in a sought-after location.

Gardens And Land

Gardens and Land The site covers approximately 9 acres of well-tended gardens, open fields, and orchards. This generous landscape offers excellent potential for those looking to generate additional income—whether through development (subject to planning consent) or by embracing a more self-sufficient lifestyle. Its varied terrain lends itself to multiple uses, including agriculture, equestrian pursuits, or the addition of further holiday accommodation. There are superb outriding opportunities along quiet country lanes and nearby sheltered trails.

Extending from both the side and rear of the property, the land at Lower Demesnes offers space, privacy, and a wealth of possibilities. Accessed via a separate lane at the rear of the property are a substantial stable and a large workshop, the latter offering excellent potential to be converted into a second stable. Both buildings are generously proportioned and, in our opinion, are capable of accommodating larger horses or could easily be adapted for a range of small livestock, such as goats, sheep or poultry, making them ideal for those seeking an equestrian or smallholding lifestyle.
