Farmhouse for sale in Lambriggan, Penhallow, Truro TR4

An exceptional lifestyle opportunity incorporating the facility for three separate residential dwellings, set amidst approximately 9.25 acres of pastoral land, within easy reach of the beautiful north Cornish coast.

Overview

Sitting less than three miles inland from the popular coastal villages of Perranporth and St Agnes on the north coast of Cornwall, Little Lambriggan Farm is a substantial rural smallholding of approximately 9.25 acres. Offering facility for at least three separate residential dwellings, the farm suggests superb potential for multi-generational or dual-family living as well as a wide range of enterprising or self-sustainable “off-grid” uses, subject to appropriate permissions. Accessed via a gated driveway the complex of dwellings guarantees a high level of privacy and seclusion and is surrounded by gently sloping pastoral grazing land, bordered by traditional Cornish hedges and a babbling stream at its western perimeter. With original sections dating to the mid-nineteenth century, the attractive main farmhouse building has been extended and divided to create two comfortable dwellings of three and four bedrooms respectively, though could be easily modified to make a substantial single residence. At the rear of the farmhouse is a newly-constructed four/five bedroomed detached barn conversion, incorporating the farmstead’s handsome stone-built former grain store. Offered to the market at “first-fix” stage and requiring completion, the impressive outer superstructure is largely completed and easy to envisage as forming the basis of a quite exceptional contemporary residence.*

The Farmhouse

Comfortable three-bedroomed farmhouse offering well-proportioned living accommodation including a cosy sitting room with log burner, kitchen, separate dining room, ground floor bedroom with adjacent family bathroom and additional WC and two further first floor bedrooms. In addition to the primary accommodation there is a fabulous garden/recreation room, spanning the width of the property at its gable end, with bespoke fitted bar area and panoramic views over the fields and surrounding countryside. Outside there are charming southerly-facing cottage gardens with raised flowerbeds, patio seating area and vegetable patch. There is an active covered well adjacent to the entrance porch.

The Cottage

Immaculately-presented four bedroom cottage, currently utilised as a successful holiday let through Airbnb. The subject of a full renovation by the current owners in 2018, the property offers beautifully light and spacious family living accommodation including, on the ground floor, two good-sized reception rooms, well-appointed kitchen, family bathroom and double bedroom. Upstairs there is a shower room/WC and three further double bedrooms.

The Barn

Sitting towards the rear of the farmhouse is a two-storey former grain store. With works commencing in late 2022 under planning application PA21/04906, the handsome stone building has been comprehensively renovated and extended to a high-standard to form the superstructure of a hugely impressive four/five bedroomed contemporary residence. At the centrepiece of the property is the breathtaking primary living space with vaulted ceiling, bi-folding doors and picture window with far-reaching views over the fields towards St Agnes beacon.

The land is divided into two good-sized enclosures with the majority falling to the north-western side of the main farm complex. A small stream runs at one perimeter where the current owners have erected a timber shed to create an attractive amenity area. A polytunnel and static caravan are also currently in situ.
