INTRODUCTION
A spacious detached former farmhouse residence set in established mature gardens of around one third of an acre. This rare opportunity has far-reaching panoramic water and countryside views from the first floor and is located on the outskirts of the exclusive Cornish coastal village of St Mawes, where a variety of shops, restaurants, boatyards, beaches and beautiful coastal walks are on the doorstep.

Description
Tregear Vean Farmhouse is a detached character property probably dating back to the Georgian Era. It is situated in a private and relatively level location, on the edge of the exclusive coastal harbour village of St Mawes, on the Roseland Peninsula, which is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The property enjoys a sunny south westerly aspect and features superb well stocked gardens. Beautiful far-reaching views are enjoyed from the first floor and encompass surrounding National Trust owned countryside, the mile-wide waters of The Carrick Roads over towards Trefusis Point and Falmouth with miles of Cornish countryside beyond. Subject to any necessary consents, the property has potential to extend the current driveway past the front entrance to build a garage with associated parking. Available by separate negotiation is a neighbouring detached single storey barn with potential to convert into residential accommodation (subject to any necessary Planning Consents). This family sized home is liveable but many may wish to upgrade and modernise to transform and re-configure the versatile light and airy accommodation.

A Brief History
A translation of the Cornish name, Tregear Vean, indicates that there has been a settlement at this location for many hundreds of years. 'Tregear' means homestead of the fort and 'Vean' means small or probably outlying in this context. Therefore 'Outlying Homestead of the Fort' seems to be a fair interpretation. The great manor of Tregear was, from very early times, the most important estate in the area, comprising most of the Roseland Peninsula and beyond, and is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1085. The whole fascinating history of the district can be read in Laurence O' Toole's book 'The ROSELAND between River and Sea'.
