St Breock Place dates from the late 17th century, with earlier origins thought to date back to the 14th and 15th century. A former rectory, St.Breock Place was extended and remodelled during the early/mid-18th century and contains many original features with fine proportions. In the past the house was configured as two separate homes, each with its own kitchen and front door; a Georgian wing and an older, 16th century section at the rear. The house has historic connections with the well-known Molesworth family. In 1787 the Rector, the Reverend John Molesworth married Miss St Aubyn of the St Levan family from St Michael's Mount.

St Breock Place is a fine Grade II* listed family house built of local stone, slate hung tiles under a Delabole slate roof and is approached through formal granite posts, up a sweeping drive to a gravelled parking area. It gives a wonderful sense of arrival and sets the tone for this handsome country house. Inside, the classic layout and proportions ensure St Breock Place is the perfect family home, with a wealth of period features throughout including decorative plasterwork, panelling, original full height sash windows, shutters, window seats and flagstone floors.

The main entrance hall leads into the elegant dining room and through to the excellent south-facing drawing room and library. The kitchen is a superb size and provides ample space for dining and informal entertaining. It forms the heart of the home and features a stone floor, central island, attractive worktops and a four-oven oil fired AGA. Off the kitchen is the utility room and cloakroom. There is a pleasing flow throughout the ground floor which also comprises a sitting room, study, WC and a useful secondary kitchen adjacent to the dining room.

The generous proportions continue to the first floor, accessed via a fine easy rising 18th century staircase with turned balusters. The principal bedroom enjoys rural views, en suite bathroom and separate dressing room. There are two guest bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, three further double bedrooms, second dressing room, two family bathrooms, nursery and playroom/sitting room.

St Breock Place has a two bedroom stone cottage on the eastern boundary, which benefits from its own entrance and private garden area. There is a well-equipped kitchen, sitting room and WC on the ground floor. The first floor provides one en suite bedroom with a further bedroom and family bathroom.

The gardens at St Breock Place are a joy and complement the house perfectly. There is an abundance of mature and established trees, lawns, colourful and rich herbaceous borders, azaleas, rhododendrons, hydrangeas and spring bulbs. This idyllic southwest-facing garden has been designed to take full advantage of the elevated setting and has been cleverly planted to provide colour and interest throughout the seasons.

There is also a delightful walled terrace area with an impressive open fire, which offers a sheltered spot to enjoy throughout the day. Beyond the gardens is a paddock, mixed woodland with a stream and a hard tennis court (which needs repair). The land extends to approximately 7.05 acres in total.
