Description

Character small holding offering three bedroom farmhouse, two stone barns with potential for conversion (subject to consent), further outbuildings and paddocks - the whole extending to approximately 4.39 acres. In need of some refurbishment and improvement but a wonderful opportunity in a very private setting.

Location
Higher Trenowin is incredibly private, being situated at the end of a long lane accessed from a byway and being accessed only by crossing a level crossing for the main trainline (for which there are gates and traffic lights on either side ensuring privacy and safety).

The property is positioned on the outskirts of Connor Downs which boasts a primary school, public house, surgery, convenience store and is home to Trevaskis Farm. There are easy links to the A30 and the towns of Camborne, Redruth and Hayle all offer a wider range of amenities and facilities. At Camborne is the mainline railway station to London (Paddington).

The Property
Higher Trenowin is a small holding situated in rolling countryside on the outskirts of Connor Downs. The whole property comprises a three bedroom detached character farmhouse together with a two storey and a single storey barn - one or both of which may have potential for conversion (subject to planning consent) - a timber stable and tack room plus two former garage buildings. There are level and private gardens with mature boundaries and two paddocks; the total acreage of the whole site extending to 4.39 acres or thereabouts.

The House
The dwelling itself is thought to have been built in the 1840s and has been in our clients' ownership for almost 30 years. It is full of character and would now benefit from a scheme of sympathetic improvement. In all the accommodation comprises; entrance porch/boot room, open plan sitting/dining room, farmhouse kitchen with Aga, utility/larder and office to the ground floor with three double bedrooms and a family bathroom to the first floor

Outside
There are gardens to the front where there are far reaching views across the neighbouring countryside from a raised decked terrace and there is also a former tree/summer house. To the side of the stone barns is a former circular swimming pool which now has the potential for a variety of uses (subject to planning consent). Just beyond this is a lovely, large and level lawned garden ideal for children to play, and from here there is vehicular access onto the driveway allowing easy access for a ride-on mower. Alongside this garden are two paddocks with a central gateway and water trough and a small meadow where the solar panels are located. There is also a garden tap here.

Between the house and the barns is a yard providing parking and turning space for several vehicles, trailers etc. Within the yard are two stone barns (one single storey and one two storey) one of which currently provides useful storage and the other currently offers three stables, but which may have potential for conversion into additional accommodation (subject to planning consent). There are a number of other outbuildings including a workshop, garage, timber store, tack room and there is even an original outside w.c.
