The Property
An exciting opportunity to purchase a unique imposing Georgian detached country house extending to about 5,900 sq ft of accommodation with stunning beaches and coastline very nearby. Amongst various uses and ownerships throughout its history, the charming building, dating back to the 1790s, was once a Court House for the Hundred of South Powder. Later, in the possession of an Admiralty surgeon, it became a gracious gentleman's residence and during the 1950s, the Hundred House took on its status of an hotel and still retains the historic elegance and charm today.
Currently, the ground floor plays host to three large reception rooms, stunning kitchen diner, TV room, study, two storerooms, two double bedrooms, one en-suite, three further cloakrooms, a large kitchen and several utility areas.
On the first floor which is reached by an ornate cantilevered staircase there is a large landing with 8 spacious, light bedrooms which are all en-suite. Outside, the property is approached over a short drive and is set in 0.84 acres of level grounds with mature shrubs, an ornate fountain at the front and palm trees.
There are outbuildings and parking available for multiple vehicles. Planning permission has been granted for conversion into five separate Freehold dwellings, each benefiting from their own private gardens and double parking with a further four guest parking bays (see Cornwall planning portal reference: PA20/06622). The main original, two-storey part of the property is to be converted into four dwellings (units 1-4), with living accommodation on the ground floor and bedrooms on the first floor. The fifth unit occupies the existing single storey extension along the northeastern elevation, meaning this dwelling is single storey.
The property would also suit a large family looking to move to Cornwall to be near some amazing beaches, the highly recommended 'Hidden Hut' café and fantastic coastal walks. There is also the lucrative holiday rental potential to consider.
