Annexe-style wing with kitchenette and separate access — potential rental income
Large south-west facing landscaped garden with panoramic countryside views

Remoter hamlet location; area classified as deprived; council tax above average
Set in a quiet Cornish hamlet, Melorne Farm is a recently renovated six-bedroom detached house offering generous, flexible accommodation across multiple floors. The property blends traditional character—exposed beams and slate floors—with modern comforts including underfloor heating served by an air-source heat pump. Landscaped, south-west facing gardens and wide-ranging countryside views give this home strong family appeal and excellent scope for multigenerational living.
A useful extended wing already provides a kitchenette, cloakroom and separate sitting room with a bedroom above, offering immediate potential for an annexe or short-term let with minimal alteration. A six-berth caravan sits in its own enclosed garden area and outline planning permission (PA19/08674) exists to replace that caravan with a dwelling, adding development upside subject to the planning process.
Practical strengths include extensive off‑road parking, a powered single garage and a large private plot. The sale will be conducted via online auction with a starting bid of £500,000; buyers should be aware of auction terms, identity verification and possible conditional sale procedures. Council tax is above average for the area.
Notable drawbacks are factual and material: the property sits in a remoter, agriculturally classified area with very slow broadband and average mobile signal, and the wider area shows indicators of deprivation. These factors may affect remote working, lettings demand and everyday convenience despite the peaceful rural setting.
