Property description
Penwinnick Farm is an exceptionally large grade II listed detached Georgian property set in an acre of land with multiple outbuildings. It sits at the foot of the Beacon at the entrance to the village.
This elegant farmhouse has been lovingly renovated and restored. First impressions are of a well presented stone fronted family home set amongst immaculately landscaped gardens. The layout and decor are traditional and exceptionally well maintained.
This substantial property incorporates 5 bedrooms, 4 reception rooms and 2 bathrooms.
The front facing reception rooms are light and spacious with classic fireplaces and large sash windows. The heart of this home is the grand living room that boasts an inglenook fireplace with log burner, exposed beams and wooden floor. The dining room has a cosy feel with period wooden beams and wooden floors. The ground floor accommodation also comprises a galley kitchen, utility area and shower room with a modern fitted suite.
Be sure to look behind every door to see who can find the secret staircase!
The main staircase leads to a large galleried landing offering access to 5 bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate cloakroom.
The bedrooms are all generously sized comprising 3 doubles and 2 large singles. Each bedroom has a sash window with a pleasant outlook with rear facing views towards the Beacon. The guest suite is exceptionally large with plenty of storage. Considering the expanse of this room there is potential to create a spacious master suite. A quirky feature of the floor plan is the secret staircase that leads to a unique style double bedroom with sloping beamed ceiling and exposed stonework that shouts teenage den.
A well stocked walled garden welcomes you to the property. The rear field garden is approximately half an acre and consists of an expansive lawn with a large feature pond, rockery and mature shrubs.
A wooden summer house at the bottom of the garden is the perfect spot to sit and watch the sun setting over the Beacon.
There is an extensive selection of outbuildings including a large garage, tool and potting sheds, log store, and an outhouse. Two open fronted barns look onto a rear enclosed courtyard. Look out for the swallow barn with an established nest for migrating swallows.
The grounds offer plenty of space for children to play and explore and adults a small slice of the good life.
Penwinnick Farm dates back to 1772 and was a working farm until the 1980s. However, the owners believe there are remnants of a 16th century cottage hidden amongst the existing dwelling. The current owners renovated the original farmhouse from 1992.
