Originally forming part of a traditional farmhouse, this remarkable property is steeped in history, with every room telling a story of its heritage.

A collection of inviting reception rooms creates welcoming spaces for both everyday life and entertaining, while the former dairy, now thoughtfully repurposed as the ground floor bathroom, provides a fascinating link to the cottage’s agricultural past. Throughout the home, an exceptional preservation of original features delivers a timeless appeal rarely found in properties of this nature.<br/><br/>The enchanting gardens perfectly complement the cottage’s character, creating a private and idyllic setting.

The gardens reflect years of careful stewardship and thoughtful landscaping, providing a peaceful outdoor sanctuary with features such as traditional drainage systems discreetly incorporated into the grounds.<br/><br/>Further enhancing the property is a detached stone outbuilding, sympathetically renovated to provide additional accommodation. Complete with its own facilities, this versatile space is ideally suited for use as guest accommodation, a creative studio, home office or hobby room, whilst remaining in keeping with the character and charm of the main residence. A substantial garage provides further practicality and convenience.<br/><br/>Ideally situated within the highly sought-after landscapes of West Cornwall, Trelowen enjoys a location that is both tranquil and accessible. The area is renowned for its spectacular coastline, rolling countryside and rich cultural heritage. The golden beaches and artistic attractions of St Ives are within easy reach, while the historic harbour town of Penzance and Cornwall’s iconic mining landscapes, recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, are also close by.
