Top Barn was converted for our clients approximately 27 years ago and is located immediately adjacent to the original farmhouse which is now in separate ownership. Approached off a farm track, Top Barn is discreetly situated within an attractive enclave of original buildings and benefits from parking for 3-4 cars adjacent to the shed/storage and in addition, separately accessed, there is an integral garage.
A pedestrian gate opens into a delightful enclosed south facing lawned garden with a slightly raised paved sitting out terrace from which access is given to the house. Mellow stone elevations feature double glazed windows and doors under a pitched slate tiled roof with an impressive brick chimney serving the fireplace in the sitting room which was an extension to the original but has beautifully blended in over time.
A stable type double glazed door opens from the sitting out terrace to a large fitted kitchen/breakfast room from which a wide opening gives access past the entrance hall (with separate wc off) to the large sitting room. There are three bedrooms and a bathroom off a long hallway.

St Buryan is a small and peaceful rural village on the Penwith peninsula between Land’s End and Penzance. St Buryan has a local shop, community centre, public house and post office providing for day to day needs whilst the large town of Penzance is about 10 minutes’ drive away. Penzance is known as the capital of West Cornwall and has a full selection of local and national retailers amongst its historic streets. There are a full range of professional, sporting and schooling facilities in the town and a hospital. Penzance is a port town with its harbour opening into Mounts Bay with excellent sailing set to the backdrop of St Michael’s Mount. Penzance also has a mainline railway station with direct trains to London Paddington.
St Buryan is situated within easy reach of several picturesque villages including Sennen, Newlyn and Mousehole (famous for its Christmas lights) plus the potter’s haven of Lamorna. Sennen Cove is largely regarded as one of the best bathing and surfing beaches around the Cornish coastline with views to the Isles of Scilly on a clear day. To the north east is St Ives which is popular with tourists and artists with excellent surfing beaches and the Tate St Ives gallery. There are miles of unspoilt countryside and cliff top walks around the area with large tracts of the coastline under the stewardship of the National Trust. To the south of St Buryan is Porthcurno and the Minack clifftop theatre which hosts open air roving dramatic groups during the summer months and is a popular venue from which to watch many classic plays whilst enjoying the wonderful sea views that the theatre provides.
