FORMER MILL & STABLE WITH PLANNING FOR CONVERSION

A large two storey former Mill and Stable at the end of a private farm lane and with a lovely outlook. Planning consent for conversion to a pair of dwellings (3 bedrooms and 2 bedrooms) but equally suitable as one large character residence.
Areas of yard and land for garden and also smaller detached barn.

Adjacent former Hay Shed now with planning consent for new 4 bedroom dwelling available separately.

The Barn - This traditional barn, formerly a mill and stables, is a very attractive building with mellow stone elevations featuring cut granite quoins and granite reveals with brick window arches. It is a large two storey building which currently has detailed planning consent for conversion to two dwellings (3 bedrooms and 2 bedrooms) but would equally suit conversion to one family size character home. It is set at the end of a private farm lane in glorious unspoiled countryside and will ultimately be one of a nucleus of three dwellings including the farmhouse and a new dwelling to replace the derelict covered yard (the site of which is also currently for sale through this agency). Hence it is a rare opportunity to develop a home of character in a totally rural setting and with the chance to continue the conversion as originally planned or remodel internally to suit one's own particular needs and style.

Ladock is a thriving community approximately six miles east of Truro with a good range of village facilities including public house, primary school, parish church, post office and superb village hall with regular clubs and activities. The larger villages of Probus, Grampound Road and Trispen (St Erme) are all within 2-3 miles and the Cathedral city of Truro which is renowned for its excellent shops, restaurants and main line railway line linking to London (Paddington) is about 20 minutes driving distance via St Erme. Ladock is ideally located for access to the south and north Cornish coasts and Newquay airport is approximately thirteen miles to the north.
