A substantial Grade II listed farmhouse dating from the 18th century, offered with no onward chain and extensive grounds totalling around one acre of paddock and mature gardens. The main house provides four well-presented bedrooms with many period features — exposed beams, slate floors, farmhouse kitchen with AGA — and an attached three-bedroom cottage suitable for multi-generational living or letting. Two barns have planning permission to convert to three holiday lets (E1/2003/02273 & E1/2003/02274), offering clear development potential for income or enhanced family use.
Practical considerations are straightforward: oil-fired central heating, private drainage to a septic tank, and ultrafast broadband. The property is in a quiet rural location on the outskirts of St Mabyn with ample off-street parking and peaceful countryside views. Local amenities include a primary school, village shop/post office and a popular village pub; Wadebridge is within easy driving distance for wider services and rail links.
Known constraints are material and factual: the house is Grade II listed, so alterations will require listed-building consent and this may complicate conversions. The EPC ratings are E for the main house and F for the cottage, and the stone walls appear uninsulated — further energy-efficiency upgrades are likely needed. Oil heating and a private septic system are present, which some buyers factor into running costs and maintenance plans.
This property suits buyers seeking a character family home with development upside — either those wanting a countryside family base with room for relatives, or buyers interested in holiday-let income from the permitted barn conversions. It is also well placed for anyone wanting rural privacy yet reasonable access to north Cornwall’s coast and transport links.
