Description

DESCRIPTION

A truly unique and incredible opportunity to become the custodian of a most magical dwelling with approximately 3 acres of gardens and woodland that neighbour one of the SouthWest's best preserved, ancient iron age settlements; Carn Euny.
 
This home sits close to the top of an ancient Carn near Sancreed surrounded by wooded, wild gardens that would be a dream for children or creatives wanting a magical outdoor space to make their own. There are various outbuildings, including a stone-built roundhouse, a workshop/studio, and a timber-built storage shed with planning permission for conversion to a studio and store. There are also a number of enchanting outside spaces that will appeal to those wanting the good life: a growing area with storage shed, raised beds and space for a polytunnel, a wild pond and a separate field with a small orchard and raised camping deck.
 
Inside, the house is a spacious farmhouse-style home with solid wood block floors in the main living spaces; a large dining room with a woodburner and an equally good sie sitting room with a grand granite fireplace. 
 
To the first floor are three double bedrooms with the master having an ensuite shower room - and the main family bathroom being downstairs. 
 
While the house would benefit from some updating, it represents a once in a lifetime opportunity to live in a most stunning locale surrounded by well established woodland and wild gardens that total around 3 acres.
