The Property
Killaworgey Mill Farm is a traditional Cornish smallholding, enjoying a high degree of rural privacy comprising a farmhouse, range of outbuildings and just over 17.5 acres of land. Once a busy commercial riding school and livery, the property and its buildings have now slipped into disrepair and require extensive refurbishment. It does however present, subject to planning consent, a large and excellent redevelopment opportunity.

Hidden at the centre of the main group of buildings is the L-shaped farmhouse which provides generous three bedroom accommodation. Opposite the farmhouse is the original mill house (no longer operational) providing just over 2,000sqft (14m x 7m) over two storeys and ideal for conversion, subject to planning consent. To one side of the farmhouse is stone barn (6.5m x 4m) and former stables (7.5m x 3m), again providing opportunity for conversion, subject to planning consent. The property also includes within the main farm area are some 17 stables (19m x 4m, 21m x 3m, 20m x 3.3m), a feedstore/workshop (7m x 5.5m) and a Dutch barn (18m x 7m). Elsewhere on the property is a poultry shed and two large, but dilapidated sheds.

The Land
Extending in area to approximately 17.5 acres, running in part along the bottom of the valley, flanked on either side by sloping enclosures which include a former quarry. At one end is a large pond through which the boundary with the neighbouring property passes and there is also a former sand school, albeit now requiring refurbishment.

Included within the Title is a further detached parcel of land extending to approximately 0.14 acres in the hamlet of Black Cross on the opposite side of the A39.

This is considered to be an excellent location within mid-Cornwall. The property is tucked away on the outskirts of Black Cross, a small hamlet which itself is less than one mile from the Halloon roundabout on the A39. From here the junction on the County’s main arterial route, the A30, is approx. 1 mile on, which puts so many of Cornwall’s main towns within quick and easy travelling distance. Bodmin 11 miles, Wadebridge 13 miles and Truro, Cornwall’s principal administrative, commercial and retail centre, 12 miles distant.

Closer to hand is the historic market town of St Columb, approx. 3 miles distant, where there is a range of amenities that will cater for most daily requirements including pre-school and primary schooling. Cornwall’s holiday mecca, Newquay, renowned for its sandy surfing beaches is a little over 6 miles to the west on the north Cornish coast, where the railway branch line joins the main Paddington to Penzance line at Par. Newquay airport is just over 5 miles distant from where there are regular domestic and international flights including a new daily flight to London Gatwick.
