3 bed detached house for sale

Sancreed, Penzance TR20

A former farmhouse with planning consent to renovate and extend, situated in an elevated position with far-reaching countryside views towards the Lizard Peninsula and west Cornwall coast, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The Property
Boswarthen is a former habited settlement, which we believe dates back to the late 1200's and is made up of a range of outbuildings, cottage and former farmhouse approximately 495 ft above sea level.

Planning permission was obtained in 2019, under Planning Application No. PA19/04568 for the external alterations and extensions to the farmhouse, change of use and conversion of a redundant traditional barn to create a self-contained dwelling and external alterations and extensions to a former farm cottage incorporating the conversion of an attached redundant traditional barn. In 2022 the barn was sold, and the conversion works are nearing completion. The vendor is retaining the cottage.

The planning consent for the external alterations and extensions to the former farmhouse is extant as the original permission has been implemented with the conversion of the barn.
