Situation - Nestled in the heart of the Penwith Peninsula, between the vibrant harbour town of Penzance and the picturesque Sennen Cove, The Old Cattle Shed occupies a peaceful rural setting amid a small cluster of traditional properties. From its elevated position, the property boasts breathtaking panoramic views stretching across miles of unspoiled open countryside.
The Penwith Peninsula, designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is celebrated for its dramatic and largely untouched landscape. Here, rugged cliffs plunge into the Atlantic, while steeply wooded valleys wind their way to secluded rocky coves and pristine sandy beaches. Among these is the renowned Sennen Cove, famed for its excellent surfing conditions, welcoming pubs and restaurants, and charming local shops.
This captivating corner of West Cornwall is steeped in rich cultural heritage. Highlights include the iconic cliff-top Minack Theatre at Porthcurno, a spectacular open-air venue offering unforgettable performances against the backdrop of the sea; the diverse collection of galleries in nearby Penzance; and the internationally acclaimed Tate Gallery in the artistic hub of St Ives.
Less than two miles away lies the friendly village of St Buryan, where residents and visitors alike can enjoy a well-stocked village shop, a welcoming pub, and other local amenities. For broader services and excellent transport connections, Penzance serves as the main commercial centre of the Land's End Peninsula, featuring a mainline railway station with regular direct services to London Paddington.
The Property - This exceptional barn conversion offers a rare opportunity to embrace tranquil countryside living in a picturesque rural setting. Beautifully presented and filled with natural light, the property boasts an elegant split-level layout that enhances its sense of space and character.
At the heart of the home is an impressive garden room featuring expansive bi-fold doors that seamlessly connect the interior to the exquisite landscaped gardens.
Inside, the property exudes warmth and charm, with exposed A-frame beams, rich oak flooring, and a striking feature woodburner that creates a welcoming focal point. The accommodation includes three spacious double bedrooms, each tastefully finished to a high standard. The principal bedroom benefits from a stylish en-suite bathroom.
Combining refined contemporary comfort with timeless rural charm, this unique barn conversion is perfectly suited for those seeking a serene Cornish lifestyle with easy access to the coast.
Outside - The property is approached via a charming gravelled driveway, which opens onto a spacious parking area bordered by mature hedges, offering ample space for multiple vehicles. From here, a series of steps gently descend into the front garden, where a neatly maintained gravel path leads to the welcoming front door.
The front garden itself is thoughtfully landscaped with a well-kept lawn, framed by sturdy railway sleepers and a diverse selection of shrubs and trees that add texture and seasonal interest throughout the year. A classic Cornish stone wall defines one boundary, complemented by dense Elaeagnus and Griselinia hedging, which provides privacy and a natural screen from neighboring land.
Additional outdoor features include a large, versatile shed perfect for storage or workshop use, and a peaceful pond that adds a tranquil focal point to the garden. The garden benefits from a desirable south-facing aspect, ensuring plenty of sunshine throughout the day.
