5 bed detached house for sale

Bellair Road, Madron, Penzance TR20

A beautifully restored period home of considerable character, offering generous and versatile accommodation including three reception rooms and five bedrooms, together with a separate studio and attractive views towards Mount’s Bay. Believed to date back more than 200 years and occupying the site of a former medieval manor house, the house combines historic interest with well-balanced family accommodation in the heart of this sought-after village.

The property retains a number of notable heritage features, including a striking granite entrance believed to date back around 600 years. An impressive entrance hall with oak flooring provides a welcoming introduction to the house and leads through to three elegant reception rooms. These include a fine sitting room overlooking the garden, a formal dining room with fireplace, and a characterful study which could also serve as an additional bedroom if required. A ground floor shower room positioned opposite adds further flexibility and makes this arrangement particularly well suited to guests or multi-generational living.

The kitchen is bright, airy and well appointed, arranged to suit modern living and opening directly to the rear garden, making it an excellent space for both day-to-day family life and entertaining. Upstairs, there are five well-proportioned bedrooms, many of which enjoy countryside views towards St Michael’s Mount and Mount’s Bay, together with a stylishly finished family bathroom.

In addition, there is a spacious detached studio which has formerly been used as an annexe and now provides excellent flexibility as a hobbies room, home office or creative workspace. The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped and include a private walled front lawn together with superb rear terraces designed for entertaining, complete with porcelain paving, an outdoor kitchen, bar area and a broad expanse of lawn.
