Stunning Home with Land & Consent for Additional Dwelling

Nestled within approximately four acres of serene, verdant countryside, this exquisite four-bedroom cottage is truly special – a rare fusion of thoughtful restoration, ingenious reimagination, and picturesque position. Within recent years the property has undergone an extensive course of improvement, that preserved and accentuated its original character, whilst also incorporating brand new, fabulously stylish spaces, and modern luxuries. Meticulously renovated, and significantly extended, this prestige home now offers an incredible living experience, ideal for large families or those who love entertaining, with expansive living areas, a fabulous farmhouse-style kitchen diner with separate utility room, spacious bedrooms, and luxurious, spa-like bathroom facilities. Within the well-kept grounds, you will find a well-appointed summer house (with its own kitchenette and shower room), and a stone-built block of stables. The stables have approved planning permission for conversion to a self build dwelling (PA26_00198). This fabulous property, could be where you finally get to enjoy the good life.

The Property - For those seeking a home with character and heart, this property could be the one you’ve been dreaming of. With its gorgeous stone elevations, traditional style box sash windows, and a slate roof, it makes a striking first impression. All of this is perfectly framed by the breathtaking backdrop of rolling fields—a true countryside idyll. For regular followers of Hunters West Cornwall on social media, you know we have a soft spot for rural cottages, and this might just be one of our all-time favourites. Step inside with us as we take you on a tour of this enchanting home.

Step through the front door, and you'll instantly feel the inviting warmth of underfloor heating gently rising through your socks—a touch of luxury found throughout the entire home. Powered by an air-source heat pump, this feature is as sustainable as it is indulgent—a perfect harmony of modern living.

To your left, the heart of the home awaits: a stunning kitchen that effortlessly combines practicality and style. French doors, complete with built-in blinds, open onto the garden, flooding the space with natural light. The kitchen itself is beautifully crafted, featuring premium farmhouse-style cabinets that offer abundant storage and counter space. It’s a dream come true for even the most passionate home chefs. The luxurious granite countertops add a touch of sophistication, and the thoughtful inclusion of Smeg appliances, a chilled wine refrigerator, and a built-in dishwasher ensures every need is met. Adding to the modern convenience, an app-controlled system manages the underfloor heating, while another smart feature adjusts the skylights to your preference. The breakfast bar is the perfect spot for casual family meals or a quiet morning coffee.

Adjoining the kitchen is a utility/ boot room that’s as practical as it is stylish, complete with outdoor access. Perfect for post-country-walk clean-ups, it allows muddy boots and clothes to bypass the main living areas, heading straight to the washer. With ample storage and impeccable design, this is, quite simply, one of the most elegant utility rooms we've encountered. There’s also a thoughtfully positioned ground-floor cloakroom for added convenience.

Heading back into the kitchen/ diner, past the kitchen, is a fabulous area that can accommodates a large table with ease, perfect for hosting dinner parties or family gatherings. Beyond this, the spacious, dual-aspect sitting room boasts a stunning feature wall and a cosy electric fire. Bi-fold doors lead directly to the garden, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. There is also a very large storage closet just off this room, afterall… you can never have too much storage!

Let’s check out upstairs! Ascend the feature turn staircase, and you’ll find yourself on a charming landing that leads to the family bathroom and bedrooms. The first bedroom, located to your right, is a true delight. Countryside views are beautifully framed by windows with quaint shutters and Cornish slate sills, while dramatic vaulted ceilings and feature wood paneling add character and warmth. Built-in storage ensures practicality, and the fabulous ensuite shower room is a standout feature. With a premium-quality suite, high vaulted ceilings, and a digitally controlled Velux window, it feels as though it’s been lifted straight from the pages of a high-end interior design magazine. And here’s the twist—this isn’t even the primary suite!

Step back into the hallway, where the next door opens to bedroom four—full of charm and personality, thanks to its quirky feature wallpaper. Further along, we find bedroom three, equally impressive with its high vaulted ceilings and built-in storage, offering both style and practicality. Continuing down the hallway, there’s a convenient built-in linen cupboard, followed by a beautifully appointed family bathroom. And then, we arrive at the crown jewel of the home: the primary bedroom suite.

This primary suite exudes the sophistication of a luxury boutique hotel. The dual-aspect bedroom boasts patio doors that lead to a private balcony with sweeping countryside views—a perfect spot to gaze out over your land and animals. Adding a touch of architectural drama, a striking feature window runs up the height of the gable end, complementing the soaring vaulted ceilings that create an airy, spacious feel. Off the bedroom, the indulgent ensuite bathroom is a sanctuary in itself. With access to the balcony, a wet-room-style rainfall shower, a freestanding bath perfect for soaking away the day’s stresses with a glass of wine in hand, with the luxurious suite also featuring a WC and handwash basin, it’s designed for ultimate relaxation. To complete this unparalleled retreat, there’s an enormous walk-in wardrobe—a rare feature that underscores the level of luxury found throughout this home. This is countryside living at its most opulent.

The Land & Outbuildings - The property is enveloped by a delightful garden that extends around three sides, creating a serene space to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Beyond the garden lies additional land, bringing the total to approximately four acres—an expanse perfectly suited to embracing the countryside lifestyle. Adding further appeal is a stone-built barn (see planning PA26_00198) and an extremely well-appointed summer house. Whether you envision running a smallholding, are looking for a luxurious home, or are simply pursing the opportunity to lead a more self-sufficient way of life in the countryside, this property could provide the perfect setting to make your aspirations a reality.
