Features and description

  • South facing four bedroom house
  • Ideal for dual family occupation
  • Detached single storey barn with extant planning for conversion
  • Additional outbuildings including large barn
  • 34 acres of hedged pasture
  • 1.6 acres of woodland and stream
A 36 acre homestead enjoying a quiet, rural setting with outbuildings and a barn for conversion, in a convenient West Cornwall setting betwixt Helston and Camborne. 

The Property
A delightful traffic free location is the setting for this four bedroom, two reception, two bathroom detached house built in 1989 in the style of a long house, fronting what would have once been the farmyard, but is now a sunny and colourful garden.

Warmed by oil-fired heating, with the majority of the windows having a southerly aspect, the accommodation provides at ground floor an entrance porch, three lovely reception rooms with the kitchen having a slate tiled floor and Rayburn, and a downstairs bathroom. At first floor there are four generous bedrooms served by another bathroom.

Outside, and arranged around the front garden, is a range of outbuildings comprising a detached single storey piggery with extant planning consent for conversion into a two bedroom dwelling, former milking parlour, a calf pen with cobbled floor, a second parlour and a large, high corrugated tin barn. In addition there is a detached Nissen hut of around 800 sqft which, subject to planning, may be suitable for development as it has its own access and ‘garden' area.

The land extends to the west of the house and barns and is in an area classified Grade III (good to moderate) on DEFRA's 1:2500 Agricultural Land Classification Map. For many years, it has been used primarily for hay and is divided into fields that slope gently and are well bounded by mature Cornish hedging. A public footpath passes through the property.

Agent's Note
When built, the property was subject to an Agricultural Occupancy Restriction, but on the 22/11/2014 a Certificate of Lawfulness for existing use was granted under Ref: PA14/10473. An earlier Certificate of Lawfulness was granted on the 26/08/2004 under Ref: W2/PA04/LUO11 for an existing use of premises as part of a dwelling (reception room 2 and the scullery were originally an agricultural workshop). The planning consent for conversion of the piggery was granted on 26/10/2016 under Ref: PA16/06523 and acknowledgement that building work had started was provided on 04/08/2017 under Ref: BC17/01919/DOMFPP

Particulars & Plan
Whilst every care is taken in the preparation of these particulars, their accuracy is not guaranteed and they do not constitute any part of an offer or contract. Any intending purchaser/s must satisfy themselves by inspection or otherwise as to the correctness of these particulars.

Location
Releath is a small, rural area largely unbothered by the summer crowds and traffic, though conveniently located 1½ miles off the B3297 Redruth to Helston road and 3 miles off the A394 Falmouth to Helston road. This means that the many and varied day to day shopping, schooling, health and leisure facilities of Helston and Camborne/Redruth are within a 20 minute/6 mile drive. The northern coastline for which Cornwall is famous, is 9 miles away at Hayle and Portreath, The Lizard Peninsula 16 miles and the UK's south-western most part at Land's End is 24 miles away. For those needing to commute, the A30 at Pool is a quick 6 mile drive putting the County's Cathedral town and all that is has to offer in Truro, 15 miles away.

Viewing & Directions
Strictly by appointment with the sole selling agent Lodge & Thomas.
