Port Isaac PL29 See map

A former Cornwall Council farmstead with outbuildings and productive land wrapped around a large, old Grade II Listed farmhouse on the rural fringe of Port Isaac.

Situation
The iconic north Cornish fishing port of Port Isaac is famed not only for its rugged natural beauty and historic harbour but for countless film and tv appearances in the likes of Doc Martin and Fishermens Friends. The village, 11⁄2 miles away, boasts a range of independent catering for daily requirements. The village boasts numerous respected restaurants and pubs, in addition to which there are two Michelin Star Nathan Outlaw establishments. A much larger range of education, health, leisure and shopping facilities can be found at Wadebridge, 7 miles to the south, whilst many of the well-known towns and beauty spots such as Tintagel (home to King Arthur’s Castle), Polzeath. Rock, Boscastle and Bude are all within easy reach. It is not only coastal walking that is well catered for in this area, as the stunning scenery and trails of Bodmin Moor are just over 8 miles away.

The Property
The property is centred on a very old and characterful farmhouse that in its listing is suggested to possibly date back to the early/mid-18th century. The front door opens onto a spacious hallway, where a slate flagstone floor extends into a dining room, the inner hall and the rear lobby. In addition, the ground floor comprises a lounge with Inglenook style fireplace, a generous kitchen, a utility/wc and a boot room. A turning staircase ascends from the inner hall to the four bedrooms, bathroom and shower room/wc on the first floor and a further full width staircase continuing onto a huge attic room.

Whilst some improvements have been carried out there remains plenty of scope for further repair and refurbishment with the potential to create a very special, highly individual home. The sellers have commissioned a Heritage Statement which contains further detailed information about the property, its history and its local significance.

Note: A Heritage Survey is available on request.

Outbuilding
Externally there is a wide range of traditional and modern outbuildings offering a huge range of opportunities, subject to planning.

A range of single storey barns are attached to the house, whilst the most striking of the barns is a detached two storey barn of around 132sqm with views toward the sea from the upper floor. More recent buildings and barns provide cover for livestock and machinery and there is excellent access onto the public highway.

The Land
Much of the land in and around the house, barns and yard has become overgrown, yet the two fields amounting to almost 7 acres have been used in recent times for grazing and hay production. It will be a condition of the sale that the new owners are to fence the section of the field to the south and east through points A, B & C (shown on the attached plan) to Countryside Stewardship standard within three months of completion of purchase and to maintain in perpetuity. The new owners will be required to cut off the water in the location marked with a blue X on that plan.
