Situation - Goonwinnow Farm is a small 'hamlet' of properties, standing amidst rolling open countryside between the cathedral city of Truro and the rugged north coast, with the A30 less than 1.5 miles away. It is an ideal location from which to explore Cornwall, lying only 6 miles or so from a number of fine surfing beaches, including Holywell Bay, Crantock, Fistral and Watergate Bay (just north of Newquay). Other popular attractions in the area include the National Trust owned Trerice, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project.

The altogether softer south coast is around 15 miles distance, with access to some of the finest day sailing waters in the country and a plethora of maritime facilities.

Truro is approximately 9 miles distance, and has an extensive range of commercial, professional, shopping and entertainment facilities. There are private schools around the City, whilst in the centre, there is a Marks and Spencer store, multi-screen cinema and the Hall for Cornwall Theatre. There is a main line railway station in Truro, linking with London Paddington, and Newquay Airport on the north coast, has a number of scheduled domestic and international flights.

Goonwinnow Farm is situated between the traditional villages of Mitchell and St Newlyn East, both of which have a pub. The latter also has a village store, butcher, post office, primary school, church and cricket and football clubs.

The Property - Goonwinnow Farm is thought to date from the mid-19th Century and was originally farmed by the Trethewey family. Wheel House, as the name suggests was originally part of a watermill and the over-shot waterwheel is still in existence and a delightful traditional feature.

Attached to Mill House, this handsome non-Listed character home was originally converted around 24 years ago and until recently was used as a holiday cottage. Approached over steps from the driveway, one enters into an impressive open-plan living area with high vaulted ceiling and substantial exposed roof timbers. The cream Shaker style kitchen is situated at one end and the room benefits from a dual aspect. Also on this upper ground floor level is a bedroom and well-appointed shower room.

On the lower level are found three bedrooms, a cloakroom and the family bathroom.

Outside - The driveway leading down to Goonwinnow Farm is shared with other properties and then the open plan granite chipped parking area is shared with Mill House. There is a small, low maintenance area of lawn, water wheel (fenced off) and a Hot Tub on a sun terrace.

Services - Shared private water supply from a borehole and shared use of an aerator private drainage system (further information available from Stags). Mains electricity. Oil fired central heating. No telephone line or broadband connected (vendors use a Starlink system for the remainder of Goonwinnow Farm). Mobile Network coverage from EE, Three, Vodaphone and O2 is available (Ofcom)
