Character cottage with sea views, 5 acres, outbuildings and modern heating..
Three double bedrooms, two with en suites
Stones Throw Cottage is a character-rich, newly renovated granite home on the Penwith Peninsula, set against open farmland and offering distant sea views from the first-floor balcony. The house combines cottage features — an inglenook fireplace, exposed beams and slate floors — with modern comforts including a ground-source heat pump, double glazing and contemporary kitchen appliances. The accommodation is arranged over two floors with a generous 26ft lounge/diner, three double bedrooms (two en suite) and a useful study/reading nook.
Externally the property stands out for its huge plot — approximately 5 acres divided into four fields — and a substantial range of granite outbuildings, stables and a large wooden garage with mezzanine. The mature cottage-style gardens, raised patio with hot tub and gated pedestrian access into the adjoining land make this well suited to smallholding, equestrian use or somebody seeking extensive private outdoor space.
Practical points to note: broadband speeds are reported as slow despite FTTC availability, and the location carries a medium flood risk. While the house has been comprehensively renovated, the site’s rural setting and large external fabric (workshops, stables, walls) will require ongoing maintenance and management. The property’s scale and land make it a niche purchase best suited to buyers wanting countryside living with character and space rather than an urban commuter base.
