This historic estate presents a unique investment opportunity nestled in approximately 34 acres, offering extensive renovation potential close to the Helford River. It's being sold for the first time since 1992, making this a rare find in the heart of south Cornwall. The Grade II listed main house features a fascinating blend of architectural styles, including elements from the 13th century and significant Georgian enhancements. While character-rich with original features like sash windows and grand fireplaces, it awaits sensitive modernization to elevate its charm further.
With over 10,000 sq ft of living space, the estate comprises multiple reception areas, a family kitchen complete with a stunning 17th-century refectory, and several en suite bedrooms—all with picturesque garden views. The ground floor also includes practical utility rooms and storage areas that could be repurposed. Beyond the main residence, there are five letting cottages within converted barns, which present an attractive income-generating prospect post-renovation.
The sprawling gardens are well-maintained yet can benefit from refreshment to restore their former horticultural glory, while the land offers opportunities for agricultural or leisure pursuits due to its expansive fields and woodlands. Additionally, a recently lapsed planning consent exists for a new dwelling to replace an existing bungalow on-site, showcasing further development possibilities.
This property captures both heritage and potential for growth in a sought-after location known for its natural beauty and community spirit.
