Casa Indipendente Con 5 Camere Da Letto In Vendita In Cornovaglia

Lynher House is a charming detached country home set within a peaceful valley position in South East Cornwall, offering characterful accommodation, generous gardens and grounds, three high-end shepherd’s huts, a flexible studio annexe and a traditional stone barn with further potential.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire not only a beautiful rural home, but also a property with the infrastructure, privacy and setting to support a lifestyle-led income opportunity. Enjoying a peaceful rural valley position with no near neighbours, Lynher House offers an exceptional sense of seclusion while still providing an excellent platform for a buyer to create their own vision. The current owners have used Lynher House as the base for a highly personal retreat offering, and whilst that operation is closely connected to them, the property itself provides an excellent platform for a buyer to create their own holiday accommodation, a variety of retreats or guest stays. A smallholding venture may also be possible, subject to any necessary consents.

The Main House

At the heart of the property is a beautifully presented detached period cottage, full of warmth, character and charm. The accommodation has been improved sympathetically, retaining the feel of a traditional country home while providing practical and comfortable living space.

The entrance hall leads through to a wonderful open-plan kitchen, dining room, which forms the natural hub of the house. With slate flooring, fitted kitchen units, an island and a brick chimney breast currently housing a bioethanol stove, this is a sociable and inviting space for everyday living. A rear door opens directly onto the rear patio, creating a natural connection with the outside entertaining areas.

The sitting room is equally characterful, with a wood-burning stove, beamed ceiling, part slate flagged flooring and dual-aspect windows overlooking the gardens and surrounding countryside.

Also on the ground floor is a large utility/garden room, with access to the rear patio and a separate cloakroom/WC, adding useful practicality for a home of this nature.

On the first floor, there are three double bedrooms, two with en suite facilities, together with a family bathroom and a separate study/home office. The master bedroom enjoys countryside views, built-in storage and an en suite bathroom with both bath and shower facilities. The study offers flexibility and could be used as a home office, games room or occasional fourth bedroom.

Studio Annexe and Lifestyle Accommodation

A key feature of Lynher House is the studio/annexe, converted by the present owners, which now provides flexible studio-style accommodation. This space can be accessed from the main house or potentially used separately, making it ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, retreat use, treatment space or holiday letting. 

The studio includes a living/kitchen/dining area, en suite facilities and a mezzanine bedroom area, giving it excellent flexibility. French windows open out to its own private patio with countryside views.

Within the grounds are three beautifully presented, high-end shepherd’s huts, which have been used as guest accommodation as part of the owners’ retreat-style use of the property. These provide a strong lifestyle and income angle, particularly for buyers considering holiday letting, retreats, guest accommodation or a boutique rural escape.

There is also a traditional stone barn within the grounds, which we understand previously had planning consent for conversion into a small dwelling. This may offer further scope to enhance the accommodation or lifestyle business potential, subject to renewing or securing the necessary permissions.

Outside, Gardens and Grounds

Lynher House sits within generous gardens and grounds, understood to extend to just under four acres in total. The land offers an attractive mix of formal gardens, productive outdoor space, natural areas and stream frontage.

To the rear of the house is a paved patio terrace, creating a sheltered and private space for outside dining and entertaining. Across the lane, the main gardens and land include lawned areas, a productive kitchen garden, orchard, woodland and two large ponds.

The land has historically supported a smallholding lifestyle and will appeal to buyers with interests in self-sufficiency, animals, nature, wellness or simply enjoying a quieter rural way of life. A stream runs along part of the boundary, adding to the charm and natural appeal of the setting.

Location

Lynher House occupies a wonderfully peaceful position in the historic Clapper Bridge locality, nestled within a beautiful rural valley in South East Cornwall. With no near neighbours, it offers an exceptional sense of peace and seclusion, while remaining well placed for day-to-day amenities and wider regional connections.

Nearby villages include Pillaton and St Mellion, with local facilities including a primary school, churches, public houses and the renowned St Mellion International Golf Resort.

Saltash is within easy reach and offers a wider range of amenities, including shops, supermarkets, schooling and a mainline railway station. Plymouth, the A38, Callington and Liskeard are also accessible, while Bodmin Moor, Dartmoor, the Tamar Valley and the Cornish and Devon coastline are all within driving distance.

Agent’s Comment

Lynher House is far more than a country home with land. It is a beautifully positioned rural home with an exceptional lifestyle angle.

The combination of the main house, studio annexe, shepherd’s huts, stone barn, lawned area, gardens and stream frontage creates a highly versatile package. For buyers looking to create a wellness retreat, boutique holiday letting venture, multi-generational home, smallholding or simply a more peaceful rural lifestyle, this is a genuinely compelling opportunity.
