Description

This historic farmstead, retained within the same family for four generations, offers a unique opportunity for renovation or redevelopment in a tranquil rural setting. Encompassing approximately 1.73 acres, this property features a traditional cottage constructed with solid materials and topped with a pitch corrugated roof. The cottage includes essential living spaces on the ground floor, such as a kitchen, utility room, pantry, and a sitting room, along with two bedrooms located on the first floor. Accessed from a byway, the property is situated in an appealing rural location that benefits from surrounding natural beauty and privacy. While the cottage requires significant restoration work to bring it up to modern standards, its classic design presents various possibilities for sympathetic upgrades that honor its character. In addition to the main dwelling, there is a diverse range of outbuildings at the rear of the house that could be repurposed or redeveloped upon obtaining planning consent. These structures are primarily block-built and feature different roof styles. They include a garage/store and a small cowshed among others, offering potential for various uses such as workshops or additional storage. The land is divided into three enclosures and is predominantly level to gently sloping, consisting of pastoral fields bounded by mature Cornish hedge banks. This usable acreage is suitable for both grazing livestock and horticultural ventures. There is also the option to rent an additional 1.25 acres nearby through separate negotiation, presenting further investment potential. Located just west of Leedstown—home to essential amenities like a public house and primary school—the property enjoys convenient access to larger towns such as Helston (approximately 6 miles away) and Camborne (6 miles). The historic port of Hayle lies within 4 miles to the west and offers comprehensive services including schools and shopping facilities along with direct rail connections. Furthermore, outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to numerous bridleways and walking paths leading toward the scenic north Cornish coast. Overall, this property represents an opportunity for those looking to invest in real estate with considerable scope for development while enjoying the peaceful ambiance afforded by its rural surroundings.
