Situation - Just 5 miles inland from the magnificent north Cornish coast, Colan is an idyllic rural hamlet that is home to the Grade I Listed parish church of St Colanus and surrounded by a picturesque and largely unspoilt pastoral landscape.
A number of fine surfing beaches are within easy driving distance, including Crantock, Fistral, Lusty Glaze, Watergate Bay and Mawgan Porth. The picturesque harbour town of Padstow is around 14 miles away with its quaint narrow streets and array of fine restaurants. Just south of Padstow are the so called 'Seven Bays' renowned for their sandy beaches.
Newquay provides a comprehensive range of shopping facilities including supermarkets together with amenities to satisfy all banking, schooling and leisure requirements. Within approximate 15 miles is the cathedral city of Truro which is now the commercial heart of the county and a vibrant shopping centre with many national retailers represented.
Newquay has a branch line railway station whilst at Truro there is a mainline connection to London Paddington. Approximately 3 miles distance is Newquay Airport with a number of scheduled domestic and international flights.
The House - Facing south over beautiful walled gardens that include a historic lych gate, this handsome Grade II Listed character home has been the subject of a sensitive renovation and now affords spacious and beautifully presented accommodation. In recent times, the eastern wing was configured as a self-contained two-bedroom holiday let and could easily revert to this arrangement.
The principal entrance hall features a mellow granite flag floor which continues into the dining room and has been worn smooth over the passage of time. Flanking this hall are the dining room and sitting room, both overlooking the garden. The dining room has a box bay window, exposed beam ceiling and substantial fireplace with wood burning stove and traditional settle backed chair. The cosy sitting room includes a granite fireplace with cloam oven and woodburning stove. Beyond this sitting room is a third reception room with second staircase to the first floor, wood burning stove and French doors to the garden.
The principal family kitchen/breakfast room enjoys views to the rear over the gardens and surrounding countryside. This impressive space has a range of cupboards and drawers with oak work surfaces, integrated appliances and attractive Aga in a former fireplace with cloam oven. Completing the ground floor are ancillary rooms such as a utility, cloakroom, bathroom and a second kitchen.
The upper floor is approached over three staircases and is home to seven bedrooms (two en-suite) plus a second family bathroom.
Gardens, Grounds And Outbuildings - Approaching 3 acres, the gardens and grounds that encircle Colan Barton create the feeling of a retreat and are a true delight to meander through.
The formal gardens around the house have been well manicured, featuring areas of lawn, mellow stone chipped pathways and a number of small traditional stone outbuildings. Adjacent to the western end of the main house are the atmospheric remains of the old cider press and now the location of a sheltered hot tub. Beyond here is an enclosure housing the heated swimming pool with surrounding terraces and a summer/pool house. Lovely views over adjacent land are enjoyed and the area is configured to be a fabulous outdoor entertaining space during the summer months. There is a further paddock to the north of the main house with an attractive pond.
Other outbuildings include a Games Room and the old Cider House which is now a Workshop and may well have potential for conversion (subject to all necessary consents).
Additional Land & Agents Note - Available by separate negotiation is additional land of around 5 acres in total. Adjoining the western boundary of Colan Barton, this picturesque stream bordered meadow and woodland is a real escape from the rigours of modern life.
The adjacent development site for two dwellings reserves the right to install a drainage field into the paddock.
Services - Mains electricity and water. Private drainage. Oil fired central heating.
Viewings - Strictly through Stags Truro Office on .
Directions - Proceed to the hamlet of Colan and the property will be found to the south west of the church.
