Description

This charming period farmhouse, built around 1911, is situated in a tranquil rural setting, conveniently located near Helston and Falmouth. The property encompasses approximately 2.5 acres of land, offering significant potential for various uses such as equestrian activities or agricultural endeavors. The house itself features traditional stone and granite construction with a pitched slate roof and has remained in the same ownership for four decades, indicating a well-loved home with room for updates and improvements. Inside, the accommodation comprises an inviting entrance lobby that leads to a dual aspect kitchen/breakfast area equipped with an oil-fired Alpha Range for cooking and heating. The spacious lounge boasts dual aspects too and features a wood-burning stove set within a stunning granite fireplace. There are three double bedrooms available, one fitted with wardrobes, along with a fully equipped bathroom. The property is approached via a private driveway that opens up to ample parking space. Externally, the grounds offer well-maintained lawns and paved terraces on three sides of the home. Additionally, there are various outbuildings on the premises including a former cowshed with potential for conversion into living space or holiday accommodation (subject to planning permission), along with a practical portal frame shed featuring solar panels. This flexibility makes it an excellent investment opportunity. The surrounding farmland provides picturesque views enhancing the property's appeal while maintaining privacy away from urban life. For those looking to invest in renovation projects or explore alternative uses of their real estate assets, this farmhouse presents an exceptional canvas.
