Hayle Mills Farm is a secluded converted barn set in about 3.20 acres, well suited to families or smallholders seeking privacy and grazing for ponies or livestock. The five-bedroom house (circa 2,478 sq ft) combines granite character, high ceilings and two en-suite bedrooms with spacious open-plan living and large French doors that connect living spaces to the established cottage garden and paddocks. A principal bedroom balcony and multiple ground-floor bedrooms add flexibility for multigenerational living.
The holding includes a double garage, substantial workshop (inspection pit), traditional stone barn, modern timber farm building and paddocks with water troughs—useful for equestrian or hobby farming. The outbuildings offer scope for conversion or development subject to consents and present real practical value for vehicle, equipment and animal storage. Direct access to the Bissoe Trail provides miles of traffic‑free riding, cycling and walking straight from the gate.
Buyers should note practical limitations: the property uses oil-fired central heating, private drainage and mains broadband currently delivers very slow speeds (approx. 7 Mbps download); mobile signal ranges from poor to none. The granite walls are assumed uninsulated in places and some upgrading, including energy efficiency improvements, may be needed. There are no planning consents in place for conversions; purchasers must obtain their own advice.
Overall this is a well-presented, characterful smallholding with strong countryside appeal and genuine scope to personalise or extend. It will suit buyers wanting immediate grazing and outbuilding utility, plus those prepared to invest in energy and connectivity improvements to modernise the home for long-term comfort.
