Description
Description
Set within approximately an acre of landscaped gardens, this exceptional reverse-level barn conversion enjoys an elevated position with uninterrupted views over rolling countryside and St Austell Bay. Located just 100 metres from the entrance to the Luxulyan Valley World Heritage Site, the property combines privacy with immediate access to one of Cornwall’s most celebrated natural landscapes. Finished to an impeccable standard throughout, the home also features a large detached outbuilding currently set up as a gym / workshop and has development potential. The property boasts rare eco-efficiency credentials (EPC 'A') with ground source heating and solar panels.
Ground Floor - The ground floor is beautifully arranged for quiet comfort and privacy. A welcoming reception hall leads to the principal bedroom, which benefits from a contemporary en suite bathroom. A spacious guest suite includes its own en suite and dressing room, while two further well-sized bedrooms share a stylish family bathroom. Underfloor heating runs throughout the entire level, with each area individually zone controlled.
First Floor - Occupying nearly the entire first floor is a stunning 48-foot open-plan living, dining and kitchen space, designed to capture the far-reaching countryside and sea views. The layout allows for both sociable entertaining and relaxed everyday living, all flooded with natural light. A separate utility room and cloakroom/WC are also located on this level. The upper floor is heated via radiators, powered by the same efficient ground source system and zoned for comfort.
Exterior and Detached Outbuilding - The grounds surrounding the property have been thoughtfully landscaped to offer both structure and seclusion. The gardens include tiered lawns, defined tree lines, over 150 recently planted shrubs and trees, and a natural willow fence along the right-hand boundary. A large granite-chip driveway with an Iroko electric gate provides a generous turning area and ample parking. Terraces to both the front and rear offer inviting spaces for outdoor dining and entertaining, and a summerhouse is tucked away for peaceful retreat. The detached barn, measuring approximately 1,100 sq ft, is currently used as a gym, garage and storage area and offers potential for further development (subject to permission).
Location
