6 bedroom house

Attractive 6 bedroom former farmhouse set within mature gardens enjoying views towards Mounts Bay. The property provides flexible accommodation that can be utilised either as a single large family home or alternatively as a good-sized main residence with an integral letting unit.

Set on the idyllic Lizard Peninsula close to the coast is this very attractive former farmhouse. The property offers great charm and many original features. The drawing room is a beautiful room, featuring an impressive inglenook fireplace and views into the private rear garden. There is a generous dining room and there is a very spacious utility room that could potentially become another reception room. The principal bedroom has a barrelled ceiling which is very unusual and the extremely spacious adjacent linen room could potentially become an en suite, subject to all requisite consents. There are 5 further bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The property has been used by our clients as a principal home with a section informally separated to provide a 3 bedroom letting unit. However, it is very simple for the property to be reverted back to being a single residence.

The gardens are mostly set to the rear and feature many beautiful shrubs and plants that stretch right across the full width of the garden offering great privacy. There is a gateway through to the paddock which has the most wonderful views over the coast to Mounts Bay in the distance and also to Gunwalloe Cove - which is accessible via a footpath. There are former stables for anyone with animals in mind, but they’d also make great storage for vehicles or boats and there is huge potential for some additional accommodation - subject to the necessary consents. The front of the property has a shared access and a shared courtyard offering additional parking as well as a number of useful outbuildings.

Location - The property is set between the hamlets of Nantithet and White Cross in Cury Parish on the beautiful Lizard Peninsula - very much Cornwall’s forgotten Eden, with some of the most dramatic coastlines found in the county. Nearby facilities are available at Mullion, with shops, pubs, restaurant and a church, as well as its attractive Harbour. The coastline is especially attractive with the very popular locations of Poldhu Cove, Church Cove Gunwalloe, Gunwalloe Fishing Cove, and Kynance Cove always drawing attention. Coverack, with its working harbour, beach and restaurants, is another popular location, along with the stunning Helford River for sailing, made famous by Daphne Du Maurier and which is accessible via Helford Village. Close at hand is the historic town of Helston, which is well served by three supermarkets and has a number of restaurants and bars.

The Lizard Peninsula offers so many opportunities for lifestyle based activities such as sailing and SUP, diving and open water swimming or simple lazy beach days with the children. Fine food features throughout the area with an ample supply of local freshly caught fish, especially crab & lobster.
