Summary - Trelissick Farm, Sithney, HELSTON TR13 0RL
6 bed 2 bath House
Large Cornish holding with development upside and immediate agricultural use.
Extant planning for conversion of traditional barns into three dwellings
Trelissick Farm is a substantial Cornish farmstead offered with just over 28 acres, a four‑bed farmhouse, a two‑bed annexe and a range of modern and traditional outbuildings. The traditional stone and slate barns benefit from extant planning (PA07/00407) for conversion to three dwellings and a separate permission in principle exists for the former waterworks (PA25/05392), giving clear development potential. The setting is private and gently sloping with distant coastal views and good access to Helston and the Lizard Peninsula.
The farmhouse is authentically period with exposed beams, stone fireplaces and an oil‑fired boiler supplying radiators; the annexe is currently used as a holiday let and could suit multi‑generational living or additional income. Ample yard space, concrete hard standings and a variety of agricultural buildings (sheds, Dutch barn, cubicle and machinery stores) make the holding immediately workable for grazing, small‑scale arable or mixed use while conversion creates additional residential value.
Buyers should note practical issues: the EPC is E, main heating is oil, drainage is private, and external granite walls are assumed uninsulated—modernisation will be needed to improve efficiency. Some barns and buildings will require repair or refurbishment before reuse; parts of the farm have had initial conversion works but further investment is required to complete permissions into finished dwellings. Council Tax band is high and purchasers must allow for ongoing maintenance of a large rural holding.
Offered freehold with vacant possession, the farm can be taken as a whole or in three lots, allowing purchase flexibility. This property will suit purchasers seeking a productive small farm with development upside, a countryside lifestyle with strong connectivity, or an investor prepared to implement the extant consents.
