Description

This property offers a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a smallholding with substantial potential. Situated on approximately 7.8 acres, the site features a variety of outbuildings and a recently redeveloped, detached three-bedroom cottage that was converted in 2015 from two derelict structures. The cottage retains charming elements such as exposed granite lintels while providing modern amenities including an oil-fired heating system and double glazing. Inside, the layout includes an entrance hall leading to practical spaces such as a utility room and a dual-aspect kitchen/diner that overlooks the grounds. The living room boasts a wood burner and French doors that extend onto a rear terrace, perfect for enjoying tranquil evening views. There is significant investment potential here, particularly with the outbuildings which can serve various purposes or be developed further pending planning permission. The existing workshop/store and additional barns are ripe for conversion or enhancement, making this property ideal for someone with renovation vision. The outdoor space is equally appealing, with well-maintained gardens featuring mature borders and a natural pond, all set against the backdrop of gentle sloping pastures bordered by traditional Cornish hedges. This setting not only offers an idyllic lifestyle but also presents opportunities for agricultural use or leisure activities. Located conveniently between Falmouth and Helston, you’ll find easy access to local amenities while still being surrounded by the natural beauty of the countryside — an attractive proposition for both residential living and possible commercial ventures.
