Description

PROPERTY
A superb lifestyle opportunity or investment, this property has 10 letting units, owner's accommodation, Leisure buildings including swimming pool and 5.5 acres of grounds.

The property also benefits from planning permission to create a new three bedroom manager's house within the grounds and add two shepherds huts for additional holiday let use (PA22-07246).

Having been converted some years ago and recently updated and modernised throughout, these former stone farm buildings have been developed into a well respected and reviewed holiday business.

The two storey barn contains seven one and two bedroom apartments which can accommodate 30 (in total) in seven units. Additionally, an adjoining single storey building has two further one bedroom units. There is also a detached three bedroom cottage within the courtyard.

Set away from these buildings overlooking a paddock and farmland beyond, a two storey two bedroom detached house is suitable for owner's accommodation.

Additionally a large building houses an indoor swimming pool (heated with Air Source heating, and is 'self-dosing' allowing ease of maintenance), a hot tub, sauna and changing rooms. This building and the old barns surround an attractive lawned garden which is made available to guests for alfresco dining.There is also a laundry room (with extant planning permission for conversion) and a games room.

The site has plenty of parking for all guests. To the north of the site there are two large paddocks totalling approximately 3.7 acres with a shed and an open fronted barn.

The south paddock of approximately 1.3 acres is home to the "Foxes Den" which has previously been used as owner's accommodation. This paddock now also benefits from extant planning permission (PA22-07246 & PA25-06754) for the creation of a new, south facing, three bedroom, two storey owner's accommodation as well as creating sites to place two shepherds hut to further improve income streams.

For those looking for an income producing, lifestyle property set within picturesque grounds in one of the prettiest parts of the country, this property is not to be missed.

Planning documents are available through the agent, or on Cornwall Council's planning portal. Summary accounts would be made available following a viewing for interested parties.
