General Comments - Lelissick Barn is totally unique and presents an incredible opportunity to purchase a property on the edge of a village with land, a combination that is almost impossible to find. It is a very attractive traditional stone barn that was converted approximately twenty four years ago in a very private position on the very edge of the village and within a short stroll of shop, post office and excellent, very regular bus service that connects to Truro and St Austell. Located in the favoured lower part of the village on the edge of The Green, the barn enjoys fabulous uninterrupted rural views over its own land with rolling countryside in the distance. The grounds and gardens extend to approximately 5.5 acres and include a gently sloping paddock and enclosed level gardens. Attractive gravelled driveway and turning space provides ample parking and provides access to the detached purpose built stable block with stabling for four horses as well as a large tack room and hay store.

The barn itself has been sympathetically extended with local natural stone elevations and is beautifully presented and full of character. There are three bedrooms and family bathroom on the first floor, the master bedroom has an en-suite shower room and all rooms enjoy the far reaching rural views. The ground floor consists of a large sitting room, conservatory, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, dining room, cloakroom and study/fourth bedroom. The barn is heated by a mains gas fired central heating boiler and all of the windows are double glazed. The level gardens are located at the side but mainly to the rear of the barn. They are mainly lawn with attractive Cornish stone walls, flower beds and many mature shrubs and plants. Beyond the garden is the field which slopes gently to a stream which forms the lower boundary. The stables are located at the top of the field with light, power and water supply and there is ample hard standing for a horse lorry or trailer. An internal viewing is absolutely essential to appreciate the high levels of presentation that this special barn offers.
