Ideal for a second home/holiday let or retirement property.

All works have been carried out and recently completed to obtain building control sign off.
Please note, land surrounding the property can be purchased by separate negotiation if required. Please liase with MAP Estate Agents for further information.
Viewing by appointment only.
This small development cannot be seen from the roadside until you approach along the driveway to the farm. The driveway opens to a small range of barn conversions, houses and parking surrounded by countryside and farmland providing a very unique and tranquil place to live, in fact, the agent often sees deer in the neighbouring fields and many different species of birds.
The parish of Wendron is made up of a number of small villages nestling amongst expansive countryside yet within relatively short distance to the surrounding towns. The village of Porkellis, about two and a half miles away, provides a range of local amenities including a church and village hall as well as a Public House and the village primary schools of Crowan, Wendron and Halwin are all less than two miles away, whilst the comprehensive college at Helston is about five miles away. Truro College is served by a regular bus service whilst further education is available at the expanding Tremough University in Penryn.
Although rural in location, Helston Redruth and Falmouth are all easily accessible and provide a wider range of retail outlets, cafes, restaurants and bars. Good sporting and social activity can be found nearby including the water sports centre at Stithians Lake which is approximately five miles distant.
