Description - A truly special and well cherished residence positioned overlooking beautifully landscaped gardens and Cornish Countryside in the distance. Having been sympathetically converted and extended over the years, the property merges traditional features with a contemporary dining room and is understood to have been originally converted in 1986, constructed of stone under a natural slate roof. The wooden windows are single glazed and benefit from secondary glazing whilst the rest are double glazed.

The remaining two bedrooms are serviced by a well-appointed family bathroom, an additional WC, and a number of built-in storage cupboards situated along the hallway whilst a spacious landing to the rear of the sitting room currently functions as a study area. On the opposite side of the barn, there are two further double bedrooms, one of which is complemented by an en-suite shower room, whilst the other enjoys a private balcony and views over the gardens. There is a further WC and the utility room which offers space and plumbing for various white goods and ample work surfaces.
