SITUATION

Padstow – about 10 miles, Wadebridge – about 6 miles, Newquay Airport – about 9 miles.

The property occupies an exceedingly convenient, central location, ideal for access throughout the county and is located close to the nearby village of St Wenn, which is to the south of St Breock Downs between Bodmin and Wadebridge. The Camel Estuary has, for many years now, attracted families on holiday, with the sandy estuary of the River Camel, which runs between Padstow (about 10 miles away) to the west, and Rock to the east. There are a great deal of compelling reasons why so many families return to this location year after year, with beautiful golden sandy beaches, some of the best surfing in the United Kingdom along this particular stretch of coastline, and when the tide permits, a wonderful playground for sailors and water enthusiasts alike. The large market town of Wadebridge offers far more extensive facilties, and Newquay Airport at St Mawgan provides regular shuttle flights to London Gatwick and Stansted (flight time approximately 1 hour), amongst an increasing number of other destinations.

THE PROPERTY

The property occupies an exceptionally convenient and very beautiful location. The availability of ‘Lower Polgrain Farm’ therefore represents an exceptional opportunity for those in search of a high quality, south-facing farmhouse in immaculate decorative condition, with the considerable assets of a traditional two-storey barn with planning permission for conversion to three holiday cottages, the whole ring-fenced by some 90 acres of pasture and woodland, approached over a cattle grid and long driveway, with wonderful rural views.

The farmhouse itself is traditional in appearance, with stone elevations, under an attractive rag slate roof. The interior of the house has been re-modelled and modernised by the current owners to a very high standard. Discreetly situated and accessed off the public highway, the long and impressive entrance driveway leads through the land and culminates in a parking/turning area to the eastern side of the house, and with access to the landscaped courtyard, beside which is the farmhouse, the two-storey barn and one-bedroomed studio outbuilding. Steps lead up to a slated, south-facing sitting-out terrace with double doors opening into the large and impressive kitchen breakfast room, off which is a staircase hall, and separate wc., and with double doors opening to the large dual aspect drawing room. On the first floor, our clients have created a large master bedroom suite with delightful views. There are two further bedrooms, each with en-suite facilities. The studio outbuilding, which is to the south of the farmhouse, comprises:- one bedroom, a kitchen and a separate wc.
