A wonderful Cornish Long House, of Georgian heritage, set in 2.48 acres of Woodland, Gardens and Paddocks in West Cornwall.
A beautifully presented four-bedroom renovated, detached farmhouse set within approximately 2.5 acres, featuring landscaped cottage-style gardens and an adjoining paddock. Nestled within a peaceful enclave of mature trees, the property enjoys a desirable south-west facing aspect, ensuring the house and gardens are bathed in sunlight throughout the day.
Lovingly and sympathetically renovated in recent years, the home retains an abundance of character and charm. Situated within a quiet hamlet on the outskirts of Penzance, Tremearne Farmhouse is surrounded by open countryside while remaining conveniently close to local amenities.
This traditional Cornish longhouse offers well-proportioned accommodation and was thoughtfully extended to include an impressive kitchen/morning room in 2018, perfectly positioned to overlook the gardens. The ground floor layout is particularly appealing, comprising three interconnecting reception rooms, each featuring a working fireplace, alongside a newly fitted kitchen with a range cooker opening into a cosy morning room complete with a wood-burning stove.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, three of which benefit from stylish en suite facilities featuring drench showers and handcrafted Zellige tiles. A well-appointed family bathroom includes a classic roll-top bath and separate washroom. A dressing room is also located on the first floor, while many of the rooms enjoy large Georgian-style windows with views across the south-facing gardens and surrounding countryside.
The property is rich in unique details, including a hand-painted blossom tree mural along the staircase and a beautifully decorated ceiling in the principal bathroom inspired by sunset skies. The current owner has also had the house repointed in lime to expose the beautiful granite frontage.
The grounds are a standout feature, with charming cottage gardens flowing into a more natural, wild garden area. A terrace with barbecue and seating provides an ideal space for outdoor entertaining, leading on to a generous lawn complete with a treehouse and garden shed.
To the side of the house, a striking detached orangery offers a bright and versatile entertaining space, with direct access to a productive kitchen garden featuring eight raised beds. Steps lead up to a detached studio, currently used as a pottery, enjoying delightful countryside views.
Equestrian or lifestyle buyers will appreciate the two paddock areas. One includes a detached stable block with two loose boxes, a hay barn, and tack room, while a further paddock of approximately 1.5 acres lies to the rear, with direct access to open countryside. A pathway from the stables leads back to the property, where there is also access to a natural woodland area, along with ample parking and turning space.
Tremarne is just a short drive from the vibrant town of Penzance, which offers a wide range of shops and a direct rail service to London Paddington. The nearby village of Heamoor provides local amenities and schooling, while the renowned coastal town of St Ives and attractions such as the Minack Theatre at Porthcurno are all within easy reach.

I thought the house was very well presented throughout and the gardens, paddocks and woodland really magical.
