TR20 9RY
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Detached farmhouse with huge plot, sea views and barn — needs updating.
Approx 6.4 acres with far-reaching sea and countryside views
Set on about 6.4 acres with far-reaching rural and sea views, this stone-built detached house offers a rare blend of farmhouse character and practical outbuildings. The comfortable living spaces include a dual-aspect lounge with wood burner, a large conservatory capturing coastal views, and a generous kitchen/diner — all arranged over a well-proportioned multi-storey layout. Photovoltaic panels on the barn and roof reduce running costs and complement the oil-fired central heating.
The plot is a major asset: formal gardens, four fields (some presently farmed under an informal agreement) a small plantation, large barn/workshop with PV roof, and useful garage with inspection pit. The substantial loft and utility spaces add flexibility for storage or conversion subject to planning. Local amenities include good primary schools, nearby beaches at Praa Sands, and market towns Helston and Penzance within easy reach.
Important considerations: the house requires updating and general renovation in places and broadband speeds are very slow. Drainage is private (two-section septic tank and soakaway) and council tax is above average. Critically, occupation is limited to those employed or engaged in agriculture on the defined land (Section 290, Town & Country Planning Act 1971); prospective buyers should confirm they meet this agricultural occupancy restriction before proceeding.
This property will suit purchasers seeking a rural lifestyle or smallholding opportunity who value expansive land, sea views and character fabric, and who are prepared to undertake updating and to comply with the agricultural occupancy condition.
