St Ewe, nr Heligan

SETTING THE SCENE

Lying near the end of a farm track in a shallow wooded valley, with just a few other properties and a vineyard, Lower Barn really is a unique and very special country home in a wonderfully unspoilt part of south Cornwall.

A little over a mile away, the world famous Lost Gardens of Heligan, once part of the Tremayne Estate, offer 200 acres of exquisite gardens and grounds to explore. The nearest village is St.Ewe while Tregony, as the 'gateway to the Roseland Peninsula', has a well regarded secondary school, pub, excellent coffee house, two churches and a community centre. A coastline rich in heritage offering some magnificent beaches including Pentewan just three and a half miles away provides ample opportunities for exploration and discovery, with the John Nash designed Caerhays Castle, beach and extensive gardens five miles to the south of the property. The popular and idyllic Portholland beach is located a mile to the west of Caerhays.

THE TOUR

Over some 30 years, the current owners have created a wonderful home, with the four bedroom stone barn complimented by the adjoining annexe and an exquisite garden studio/cabin in the colourful mediterranean-style gardens and grounds.

The main property has been created from a split-level stone barn, providing four bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms and a large sitting-dining room with a separate kitchen in the centre of the property. The adjoining annexe which is currently laid out over two floors with two double bedrooms - both with en suite 'wet' shower rooms. This does work well as a self-contained annexe if desired, but depending on the next owners' needs there is current consent to integrated the annexe into the main accommodation if desired.

Nestling in the garden the beautiful timber-built cabin has a covered porch, spacious double bedroom and en suite bathroom. In addition there is also a small stone studio, perfect as a garden office. The gardens really are a colourful treat with various terraces, decks and lawned areas sub-divided by trees, shrubs, flowerbeds and walling,
