Chytane Farm

GRAND 6 BEDROOM STONE FARMHOUSE SET IN AROUND 3.5 ACRES OF FORMAL GARDENS IN CENTRAL CORNWALL OFFERING COMPLETE PRIVACY AND SECLUSION HAVING A COLLECTION OF 10 MULTI-PURPOSE OUTBUILDINGS TOTALLING OVER 4500 SQ FT.

Chytane Farm represents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a stately stone farmhouse in Cornwall with vast potential for further development. The property is set in 3.5 acres of delightful formal gardens incorporating a wealth of garden stone and landscaped architectural features, including a grand front paved terrace with a panoramic outlook over the private gardens. The property is approached through an original granite pillared entrance via a gravelled driveway that meanders through the impressive front gardens and leads to a large parking area in front of the raised architectural front terrace. To the side of the property, an original walled garden has been landscaped with raised planted beds, stone paving, play lawns and a covered sunny al-fresco dining area. The main gardens include large soft fruit netted areas, lawned areas, mature trees, an orchard (currently with bee hives) and a wealth of landscaped mature plants and garden features.

The numerous and substantial outbuildings are located close to the main house and amount to over 4500 sq ft of garaging, barns, open sheds and offices, with great potential for a variety of uses. The barns have potential for industrial/office use or perhaps conversion to a small complex of holiday let cottages that could be run and serviced from the main house, subject to planning permission.

Off the access drive, there is a vehicular opening into the top of the gardens, with a large scale footing and foundation laid for a significant detached building, previously granted planning permission as offices. The vendors inform us that the planning permission is considered as extant and current, as the works have been substantially commenced. Potential exists for this building to be constructed and used for a variety of other purposes, including potential holiday letting accommodation, swimming pool, orangery etc. subject to a revised application.

Garden areas are linked by mature hedging with walk throughs leading to a small orchard at the bottom of the land and a soft fruit netted area at the top of the plot. The farmhouse itself has a delightful secluded walled garden along with the extensive grand terrace to the front of the property with a circular raised pond enjoying rural views over the garden landscape.
