DESCRIPTION

This property has been in the same family’s ownership since 1912. Development opportunities such as this, are seldom available. The setting is quite beautiful and unique, set on the edge of the popular village of Stithians with paddocks surrounding the properties on three sides. The mill and cottages enjoy lovely views out over an open field with a large pond and a pretty leat running through. This would be the perfect opportunity to create a holiday letting complex or for a developer to develop the entire site and sell all the properties off individually.

The properties comprise a beautiful, three storey Grade II Listed former mill currently a two bedroom dwelling with planning permission granted for its extension into an adjacent outbuilding to bring it up to four bedrooms. Adjacent to this are two attached Grade II Listed stone cottages (1x 4 bedrooms, 1x 3 bedrooms).

In addition, there are a series of outbuildings which have planning permission for conversion/replacement to create five further detached residential dwellings and two further outbuildings which may have potential for the future.

Tregonning Mill and the cottages were created from the original mill buildings and are Grade II Listed with landscaped gardens to the rear and a large pond. The mill wheel is in working order and creates a lovely feature in the ground floor of the former mill with a feature glazed viewing area exhibiting the original mill workings, in the kitchen/dining room.

The surrounding paddock and stables/large wooden barn provide the perfect environment for those who wish to keep livestock or to put the land to equestrian use. There is a public footpath which crosses the land, (which we understand from our client is seldom used).
