Boswin, Porkellis, Cornwall

Netley Barn is a handsome one bedroom bespoke barn conversion that is thoughtfully conceived, flooded with natural light and tastefully presented throughout. The barn offers a welcome blend of character features that include vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and slate flooring.

Modern practicalities are effortlessly catered for with a contemporary fitted kitchen with striking granite working top surfaces, a breakfast bar and a stylish wood burning stove for those cosy nights beside the fire. The lounge windows frame the country outlook which extends beyond the generous grounds to the rural backdrop and Black Rock in the distance.

The shower room is well equipped and beautifully presented whilst the master bedroom has an attractive part vaulted ceiling.

Outside the garden and grounds slope gently in a westerly direction enjoying a sunny outlook and providing real scope for those wishing to embrace this lifestyle opportunity and grow produce and vegetables on their pathway towards greater self sufficiency. A large loose chipped patio and barbecue area would seem the ideal place in which to sit and relax and enjoy socialising and family barbecues during warmer months.

The double garage contains a handy utility area on the ground floor with the potential to adapt this and the boarded loft area to provide alternative uses or accommodation, subject to any necessary permissions or consents.

Located by an attractive raised flower bed is the plant room and filtration unit for the private borehole water supply.

A generous driveway provides ample off road parking for a number of vehicles and leads on to Netley Barn, the garage and the redundant stone barns beyond.
