About
Tucked away within an unspoilt Cornish hamlet, this exceptional barn conversion offers a rare sense of seclusion, elegance, and connection to the surrounding landscape.
Approached through beautifully maintained grounds extending to 1 acre, the setting is nothing short of enchanting.
Formal gardens, rich with mature planting and thoughtfully designed structure, unfold around the property, offering privacy and year-round interest.
Beyond, two acres of wild meadow create a natural haven, alive with wildlife and lending a sense of space and tranquillity that is increasingly hard to find.
The barn itself has been impeccably finished, combining the warmth and character of its heritage with a refined, contemporary interior.
Light-filled living spaces flow effortlessly, while three beautifully appointed bedrooms provide comfort and calm.
Complementing the main residence, a detached two-bedroom annexe offers outstanding flexibility — equally suited to guest accommodation, independent living, or a sophisticated home office or studio.
