Situation
Tresawsen Farm sits on the outer fringes of the rural hamlet of Callestick, part way between Truro and the north Cornish coast. The farm sits along a quiet back road and enjoys privacy and tranquility and yet is within a very short distance of the main A30, allowing easy access in, around and out of the county.
Truro is the commercial capital of Cornwall and boasts a wide range of every day facilities, with a high street offering national multiples as well as many independent cafes, shops and restaurants. The historic Cathedral hosts a variety of events and the train station provides a regular link to London (Paddington).
Perranporth and St Agnes are equidistant, with each offering sandy beaches, access to the South West Coast Path and every day amenities and eateries.
The Property
Tresawsen Farm has been in the same family ownership for over 60 years and has remained totally unspoilt. It is to be sold with vacant possession and no onward chain. The farm is offered for sale as a whole or in lots:
Lot 1
Five bedroom Grade II Listed farmhouse, traditional barn, former cart house & 6 acre paddock
The farmhouse is a very attractive Grade II Listed dwelling which offers spacious five bedroom accommodation with a host of period features including slate flagged floors and window shutters in many places. The farmhouse could now benefit from a programme of refurbishment but nevertheless offers the opportunity to create a wonderful family home.
To the front are attractive landscaped gardens, containing specimen shrubs and flanked by sweeping lawns, as well as a garage and driveway parking for numerous vehicles. On the opposite side of the quiet country lane are the remains of a stone barn and a former cart house, possibly with potential for conversion into stores/similar or even ancillary accommodation (subject to gaining the necessary consents).
