Exceptional 5-bedroom coastal farmhouse with separate 1-bedroom cottage, set within expansive gardens and grounds

Just one mile from the spectacular North Cornwall coast, this beautifully presented detached farmhouse offers an idyllic coastal lifestyle. Perfectly positioned near the highly sought-after beaches of Mawgan Porth and Porthcothan Bay, the property enjoys a peaceful and private setting, while remaining just moments from some of Cornwall’s most prized locations.

The main house has been thoughtfully updated by the current owners and is immaculately presented throughout, having recently undergone full redecoration, along with the installation of new carpets and flooring. Externally, significant improvements include replacement windows, a newly restored roof, and fresh exterior painting, ensuring the property is in excellent condition.

Offering superb flexibility, the layout includes a wing that can function as an integral one-bedroom self-contained annexe, ideal for multi-generational living or additional accommodation. Adding further versatility, The Nook—a charming detached one-bedroom single-storey cottage within the grounds—provides an excellent option for guest accommodation, a private retreat, or an income-generating holiday or residential let.

A five-bar gate opens onto the generous driveway, offering ample parking for multiple vehicles and leading to a double garage. Additionally, a separate single-storey outbuilding** provides three secure storage areas, ideal for practical use.

The beautifully landscaped, south-facing gardens offer a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity. Mostly laid to lawn, they feature attractive flower beds, mature borders, and a charming pond, creating a delightful space for relaxation and outdoor enjoyment.
