Former smallholding for refurbishment

Becoming harder to find, a former smallholding for renovation, comprising a three bedroom detached cottage, range of part dilapidated stone barns and almost 4½ acres of land all set on the edge of a delightful rural hamlet.

Situation

Tremayne is tiny rural hamlet between Blackrock and Praze-an-Beeble.  The latter is just ½ a mile down the country lane and is a bustling village centred on the convenience store/Post Office, primary school, a public house and a bakery/pasty shop.  This is an excellent location for commuting to larger shopping and commercial centres, central as it is to Camborne, Helston and Hayle on the north coast, and the main arterial route for Cornwall, the A30, all of which are within 7 miles drive.

The Property

Tremayne Farm was once a larger farm, but today is a manageable 4¾ acre smallholding that is being sold to close an estate.  It comprises a traditional detached cottage which has uPVC frame double glazing and already has been part re-roofed, but still requires extensive repair and renovation to its three bedroom, two reception accommodation.  There is a generous kitchen and the room has potential for a bathroom.  It should be noted that there is currently no bathroom, which will almost certainly render the property un-mortgageable.

On the opposite side of the track to the cottage is a mowhay and a yard, and a generous range of outbuildings, many of which are stone built.  Like the cottage, the outbuildings require renovation and, subject to planning permission (no planning history), may have scope for conversion.

Adjacent to the yard and buildings is the 4½ acres of level land, which is currently laid out to pasture.                                            The land is divided into two field enclosures with a stream running through the middle, and a public footpath running along one side. 

Agent’s Note: Please be aware there is evidence of Japanese Knotweed growing on the land.

Services: Mains electricity and mains water are connected to the property.  Assumed private drainage. None of these services have been tested and therefore no guarantees can be given.

Council Tax Band: B   EPC:  G

Wayleaves, Easements & Rights of Way: The sale will be subject to and with the benefit of all existing wayleaves, easements and rights of way as may exist.

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.

Viewings: Strictly by appointment with the sole selling agents Lodge & Thomas. Tel: 01872 272722

Directions: From the crossroads at the centre of the village of Praze-an-Beeble, take the road east and follow the road out of the village passing the primary school on the left.  Approximately ¼ of a mile after passing the school, on the sharp bend, there is a turning to the right signposted Tremayne.  The property for sale will be found after a short distance on the right hand side at the end of the lane, identified by a Lodge & Thomas for sale board.
