For sale by public auction on Wednesday 15th January 2025 | In need of full modernisation or redevelopment (STPP) | 2.8 acres including a paddock and mature orchard | Excellent location with Holsworthy, Bude and Launceston all easily accessible
DESCRIPTION
This charming, cob and stone-built farmhouse offers a unique opportunity to create your dream country retreat. Nestled amidst 2.8 acres of Cornish countryside, the property boasts a wealth of potential. While the farmhouse itself requires a full modernisation there is potentially to extend or rebuild (STPP) to create a fantastic family home.
The surrounding land is made up with a mixture of gardens, gently sloping pasture and orchard. It is ideal for those with a passion for gardening, equestrian enthusiasts or those looking to live “The Good Life”. The property offers stunning views over the neighbouring countryside yet with excellent travel link to Bude, Holsworthy and Launceston. With a little imagination and investment, this farmhouse could be transformed into a beautiful country home.
