TAPPARD FARM BARNS DEVERAL ROAD, FRADDAM, , TR27 5EP

A collection of former farm barns with residential planning consent to create a small and appealing development of three homes together with additional sheds ideal for storage with possible further potential. Tucked away on the rural fringes of popular West Cornwall villages, this sheltered location is easily accessible to the nearby towns of Hayle and .

HAYLE (A30) 3.5 MILES * HELSTON 7 MILES * 5 MILES 22 MILES * FALMOUTH 17 MILES

SITUATION Barely a minute from the B3302 Hayle to Helston Road, this is an extremely central and convenient setting hidden away from most day to day hustle and bustle. The communities of Fraddam, Reawla, Wall, Carnhell Green and Leedstown are all within a 3 mile radius. There is a Post Office/grocery store in Carnhell Green with a more extensive range of shops, doctors’ surgery, dentists and a hospital less than 4 miles away within the north coastal harbour town of Hayle which also boasts a choice of supermarkets and a retail park with Marks & Spencer and Boots etc. The County’s main arterial route, the A30, bypasses Hayle providing easy access to in the west and the City of Truro in the east and the town also has a station on the main Penzance to Paddington railway line.

THE BARNS A courtyard of former farm barns and sheds with Conditional Planning Permission (PA18/03716) for residential conversion into three character homes. Additional useful buildings would be ideal for general storage of building materials and/or vehicles and equipment etc, and may also present potential for alternative use, subject to planning consent. The barns are set within a level site in a sheltered valley and are surrounded by a large additional fenced area of land suitable for parking and garden areas. The site is bordered by open farmland or woodland with a small stream running along the inside of the boundary presenting the opportunity to create a pond or wildlife haven.

The barns are accessed off the Council maintained road leading from Reawla to Fraddam. This is indeed a rare opportunity to purchase a range of traditional barns and to create unique homes in a sheltered rural setting. The project is considered ideal for builders or developers who may wish to convert and sell the properties individually, or perhaps for private individuals to create a home with further properties for family and/or holiday letting.

BARN A Traditional Stone Barn (13’4’’ x 12’1’’) formerly two storey but now with no first floor, used as a workshop with plastic coated corrugated sheeted roof. Adjoining Cows House (34’9’’ x 14’7’’) open to the front with dilapidated corrugated iron sheeted roof. Adjoining Lean-to (17’10’’ x 7’5’’). The planning consent for this barn is for a two storey dwelling with proposed accommodation at ground floor comprising a large kitchen/diner, utility room, downstairs toilet and a generous lounge. A winding staircase would ascend from the reception hall to the first floor where is it proposed that there will be a family bathroom and two double bedrooms, one of which will have an en- suite. A particular feature of this barn will be the double height windows surrounding the entrance door, flooding the hallway and landing with natural light.

______Page 3 BARN B Concrete block built open fronted Building (14’7’’ x 42’6’’) with corrugated metal sheeted roof. Planning permission has been granted to create a comfortable single storey dwelling with proposed accommodation comprising an entrance hall, a generous open plan kitchen/dining room/lounge, a double bedroom and a bathroom. The building is to be faced with natural stone to ensure that it blends well with others within the development.

BARN C Single Storey Barn (9’11’’ x 9’6’’) traditional stone construction with corrugated asbestos sheeted roof, adjoining open fronted Cart Shed (31’ x 9’7’’) with stone wall and metal sheeted roof, adjoining Two Storey Barn (14’1’’ x 9’10’’) with external stone steps to the first floor. The planning consent for this barn provides for an interesting two storey conversion extending over the open front single storey section with proposed accommodation at ground floor comprising a large entrance hall with turning staircase, two double bedrooms, one with an en-suite, together with a family bathroom. On the first floor there is to be a dual aspect lounge with two double doors opening out onto a terrace with garden beyond, toilet and good size kitchen, again opening out onto the terrace at the rear.

______Page 5 Two additional sheds comprise a Pole Barn (28’9’’ x 21’5’’) of timber construction with corrugated sheeted roof and cladding and an adjoining former Cows House (22’7’’ x 10’9’’) of concrete block construction with corrugated iron sheeted roof, currently used as a workshop. Although not included within the existing Conditional Planning Permission for conversion, these buildings would make ideal secure storage for tools and equipment and/or for materials etc during the development period but also may offer potential for change of use, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
