A mile from St Kew and its excellent pub, deep in little lanes, a handsome detached cottage converted from barns which served the beautiful main farmhouse (100 yards), all believed to have medieval origins.
To the front and sides, a large, enclosed, mostly lawned garden (table/chairs) shaded by mature trees, with lovely long views over sheep and cattle-grazed pasture.
Inside, elegant and roomy with knobbly walls, deep-set windows and a few exposed beams.
From garden, door (6'4" lintel) and 2 steps up to big open-plan living/dining/kitchen (dishwasher, washer-drier, microwave, small freezer, fridge, electric cooker, spin drier) with woodburner and TV/DVD; loo.
Stairs (stairgate) up to three bedrooms - a double (5' bed) with French windows to steps down to garden, a room with double and single bed, and a single (limited clothes-hanging space); bathroom (suite, shower over bath).
