Spacious period home with sweeping lawns and historic charm near Newquay.
Grade II listed early 19th-century Georgian farmhouse
Trethiggey Farmhouse is an early 19th-century Grade II listed Georgian farmhouse set in very large, private grounds just beyond Quintrell Downs, about three miles from Newquay. The stone ashlar façade, tall sash windows, high ceilings and original period details create a rare, characterful home with substantial reception space: four reception rooms, six bedrooms and three bathrooms across multiple floors. Mature specimen trees, sweeping lawns and a meadow beyond give an attractive countryside setting and good privacy.
The house has been sympathetically maintained with many original features retained — fireplaces, stone-flagged and boarded floors, decorative cornicing and a rustic farmhouse kitchen with an AGA and wood-burning stove. Practical outbuildings include a single-storey stone building with a four-bay car port and storerooms, plus a log store and off-street parking, supporting family, equestrian or small-holding uses.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status: works will require listed-building consent and could limit alterations or extensions. The house, while in characterful condition, will suit someone prepared for ongoing maintenance and selective refurbishment to modernise services. Broadband speeds are slow and council tax is expensive; mobile signal is average. For those seeking a historic country home within commuting reach of Newquay and coastal leisure, Trethiggey offers rare scale, provenance and long-term investment potential.
