Planning permission has been granted to convert the two traditional stone barns into two residential dwellings. The location is very pleasant and the property is found along an unmade lane and enjoys complete privacy with no near neighbours and is surprisingly quiet. The cottage is in a need of renovation but offers huge potential. The accommodation includes three bedrooms on the first floor with sitting room, dining room, lounge, kitchen and shower room downstairs. The long entrance lane is a lovely approach to the property and this opens up to a large yard that provides plenty of parking. The gardens and grounds are somewhat overgrown and extend to just over one acre. There is huge scope to create a lovely garden. In addition to the two barns with planning consent there are additional outbuildings including a large general purpose shed which is perfect for garaging several cars.
The property is being sold with no chain and an internal viewing is recommended.

Planning Permission - Planning permission was granted by Cornwall Council on 13 December 2024 planning reference PA24/07202 for "Conversion of barns into two residential units" Further information and planning conditions are available from the agents.

Location - Rose Farm is located on the outskirts of Chacewater and with excellent links to Truro, Falmouth and Redruth. Chacewater is a sought after village which is located within five miles of Truro. It benefits from a village shop, public house, bakers, doctors' surgery and primary school. Chacewater has a great sense of community with many village organisations and activities which are held throughout the year. The location offers easy access to the A30 via Scorrier and further amenities can be found in Truro.

Outside - Rose Farm is approached from a quiet unmade country lane and an opening leads from this lane into a private drive that continues to a hardstanding that provides lots of parking and to the outbuildings and cottage. The traditional stone barn on the right (Barn 1) has planning consent for conversion into a two bedroom dwelling. On the left is a large detached outbuilding, ideal as a workshop with garaging space for four cars. Beyond the workshop is a gently sloping paddock that is very overgrown and enclosed within natural hedge boundaries that enjoys far reaching view views over the surrounding countryside and a sunny aspect.
The drive continues past the barn and workshop to the cottage and the second barn (Barn 2). This barn also has planning consent for conversion into a two bedroom dwelling.
A concrete path leads to the cottage entrance. A long front garden is somewhat overgrown but has some wonderful mature trees, shrubs, plants and apple trees. The garden is enclosed within natural hedge boundaries and offers tremendous potential. At the rear of the cottage is a wide gravelled area providing access into the kitchen and further stone building, probably a former piggery which is rather dilapidated, but offers further potential. A wooden door opens from the rear pathway into a former stone building that is attached to the cottage. This building does does not have a roof but could easily be converted into additional outside storage, or possibly amalgamated into the main house for further accommodation subject to consent.
