Description
A wonderful opportunity to acquire a substantial parcel of land in an amazing unspoilt rural setting with barn/derelict cottage and stables.
The Property
Perfect for those looking to create a unique countryside home, this detached derelict barn/cottage, more recently used as a barn, occupies a beautiful and peaceful setting surrounded by open countryside. The property benefits from a positive pre-application response for conversion into a single dwelling (Application No. PA26/00592/PREAPP), offering exciting potential to create an exceptional rural residence.
The cottage sits within a level meadow enjoying lovely far-reaching countryside views. A track running alongside the property leads to the stable block before continuing through the land, which extends to approximately 13 acres.
Around half of the acreage is currently laid to grazing and haylage, while the remainder is covered in mature gorse, creating an excellent natural habitat for wildlife. Beyond the stable block, the track winds gently uphill through banks of gorse, impressive granite boulders and an additional paddock before reaching three largely level fields at the summit. These attractive fields are enclosed by traditional Cornish dry stone walls and enjoy a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity.
Location
