AN IMPRESSIVE CONTEMPORARY BARN CONVERSION OFFERING SPACIOUS ACCOMMODATION, PRIVATE SOUTH-WESTERLY GARDENS, DOUBLE GARAGING, CLOSE TO CORNWALL’S COASTLINE

The Property

Pollys Barn is an impressive and beautifully executed barn conversion, combining the character and substance of its original form with a distinctly contemporary approach to modern coastal living. Converted and comprehensively refurbished in 2016, the property offers surprisingly generous accommodation arranged over two floors, complemented by a private south westerly garden, excellent parking and an integral double garage.

.

Occupying a tucked away position within the peaceful hamlet of Tresean, the setting is particularly appealing for those wishing to enjoy the very best of the north Cornish coastline. Polly Joke, Holywell and Crantock beaches are all within walking distance, together with the South West Coast Path, placing miles of spectacular coastline and countryside quite literally on the doorstep.

.

The conversion has been thoughtfully designed with considerable attention given to light, space and the quality of the finish. Traditional materials, including exposed Cornish stone and natural oak flooring, sit comfortably alongside clean architectural lines, contemporary fittings and high quality Velfac timber-aluminium windows and doors. The result is a home that retains an appropriate sense of character whilst feeling bright, comfortable and thoroughly modern.

.

At the heart of the house is a superb open plan kitchen and dining space, designed as a sociable and highly practical area for everyday living and entertaining. Extensive glazing creates an excellent connection with the garden, while full height windows and a sliding glazed door allow natural light to flood the room and provide direct access outside. The contemporary kitchen is finished with understated cabinetry, timber work surfaces, an induction hob and a peninsula incorporating informal breakfast seating.

.

The principal sitting room provides a more intimate reception space, with floor to near-ceiling windows bringing in further natural light. An exposed stone wall and recessed wood-burning stove form an attractive focal point and introduce warmth and texture to the otherwise contemporary interior.

.

A double bedroom on the ground floor adds considerable flexibility to the accommodation. With a vaulted ceiling, exposed structural timbers and a Velux window, it would also make an excellent home office, library, snug, playroom or games room. Its vaulted ceiling and exposed structural timbers provide a reminder of the building’s origins and add considerable character.

First Floor

The first-floor accommodation continues the same clean and considered approach. The principal bedroom is a generous double room with built-in wardrobes and its own contemporary en-suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms provide family and guest accommodation, while a separate study could serve as an occasional fifth bedroom.

.

These rooms are served by an exceptionally well-appointed family bathroom with a double-ended bath and separate walk-in rainfall shower. Skylights and well-positioned windows keep the upper floor light and airy, with glimpses towards the surrounding countryside.

.

Throughout the property, careful consideration has been given to both appearance and performance. High levels of insulation, made to measure blind and a Nest home control system are among a number of features incorporated into the conversion.

Outside

Polly’s Barn enjoys an especially attractive and private south westerly facing garden, designed to make the most of its sunny and sheltered position. A York stone terrace provides an excellent setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, with sleeper edged steps rising to a lawn bordered by traditional Cornish stone walls, established planting and raised flower beds. Beyond the York stone terrace, a further patio separates the lawned areas and provides a dedicated place for garden lounge furniture. The garden is fully enclosed and offers an appealing degree of privacy.

.

Parking for up to four vehicles includes a granite-set space in front of the integral double garage. The garage has an electric roller door, washing machine plumbing, boarded attic storage and a battery linked to the solar panels. Outside are a log store, two taps, power sockets and under-eave lighting.

.

Polly’s Barn represents a rare opportunity to acquire a high quality and individual coastal home, combining contemporary accommodation, privacy and excellent ancillary space with an enviable position from which to enjoy some of Cornwall’s most beautiful beaches and coastal scenery.
