A Georgian Country Residence of Timeless Elegance
Beautifully set within a tranquil Cornish hamlet, Sutton House is an exceptional Georgian residence surrounded by private gardens, meadows, orchards, woodland and stream frontage — extending to approximately 6 acres.
A home of rare grace and proportion, it combines period character with country serenity.

The Setting:
Nestled just outside the village of Upton Cross, Sutton House enjoys a peaceful yet connected location amid the rolling countryside of south-east Cornwall.
Upton Cross offers an excellent pub – The Caradon Inn with its village shop and post office, a well-regarded primary school, and the renowned Sterts Open-Air Theatre.
The area is steeped in history and natural beauty — with Bodmin Moor, The Hurlers stone circle and The Cheesewring close by.
Nearby towns Launceston and Liskeard provide independent shops, supermarkets. professional services, and transport links, while the fishing port of Looe offers access to the south coast and its maritime amenities.

Connections
• Road: The A38 (5 miles) and A30 (9 miles) provide swift access to Plymouth, Exeter and the M5.
• Rail: Regular Intercity services operate from Liskeard to London Paddington and other major UK cities.
• Air: Regional airports at Exeter and Newquay offer flights to London and multiple UK and European destinations.
• Ferry: Cross-channel ferry links from Plymouth to Brittany and northern Spain.

Sutton House
Built circa 1820–1830, Sutton House replaced an earlier grand residence lost to fire. Constructed in fine natural stone with granite quoins, carved lintels and a traditional slate roof, the home reflects the finest craftsmanship of the Georgian era.
Approached via a sweeping drive through meadowland, Wildlife abounds — the gardens and woodland are alive with birdsong, pheasants, rabbits and deer. The setting offers complete seclusion and far-reaching views across the Cornish hills to Kit Hill, Caradon Hill and Minions.
