Higher Well Farm is a spacious period family home set in about 0.6 acres of lawned gardens, mature trees and gated areas. The main house offers generous living rooms, a sunroom with large patio doors and four bedrooms upstairs, while an attached self-contained one/two-bedroom cottage provides flexible accommodation or a lettable unit. Parking, a sizeable workshop and separate store/yard add practical value for hobbies, vehicles or business use.
The cottage has been used successfully as both a residential let and a holiday rental and can be reconnected to the main house via an existing boarded link to create a large six-bedroom family residence. The main bedroom includes a dressing room/office with plumbing previously installed, giving realistic scope to add an en suite. This layout will suit multi-generational households or buyers seeking rental income alongside family living.
Buyers should note several practical considerations: heating to the main house is via oil (community scheme) and the cottage uses electric; drainage is to a septic tank; the building’s stone walls are assumed uninsulated; and the EPC is D55. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is average—factors to weigh if remote working or high-speed connectivity is essential. Council tax is above average.
Overall this is a characterful, flexible property in a semi-rural hamlet location within easy driving distance of Newquay, Perranporth and Truro. It offers immediate comfortable space plus clear potential for upgrading energy performance, reconfiguring accommodation or continuing the cottage as a revenue-generating holiday let.
