Description - This striking detached (with the exception of two granite beams) barn, converted around 20 years ago, is set in a small development and is close to both the beach and coastal footpath. Well-presented throughout, the generous accommodation includes a master bedroom suite with en-suite shower. The second bedroom also has an en-suite shower room and the two further double bedrooms are served by the comfortable family bathroom.

The ground floor accommodation includes a spacious entrance hallway leading to a truly stunning sitting room which was previously used as the farm's grain store. There is a cloakroom, storage cupboards, and boiler room which is where the ground source heat pump is located and a comfortable kitchen/dining room with a range of fitted kitchen units, breakfast bar, space for an 8/10 seat dining table and large windows at the gable end giving views over the Maen Valley. When the conversion took place, the owners did an excellent job of retaining many of the key features of the barn which has allowed it to retain its rustic charm.

Outside - Valley View is approached via a sweeping shared driveway and has parking for a number of cars. The space to the side of the property is currently part of a wide farm track which could be landscaped and turned into further parking or additional gardens if required.

The rear of the property has a wraparound stone patio with steps to main garden which is laid to lawn. The owners are including two copses and some additional land behind the current boundary to allow the next owners to make the most of the elevated position and expansive views over the Maen Valley.

The property will also come with a right of way over the vendors land, via a farm track and path, to make use of the private gate onto the coast path and allowing easy access to both Swanpool Beach and Maenporth Beach, both of which have fantastic café facilities.
