Once in a lifetime opportunity to own and develop (subject to planning) a selection of barns, and outbuildings in approximately 2.1 acres of land in one of West Cornwall's most beautiful spots above Portheras Cove.
A U-shape formation of old, stone barns with a central courtyard enjoy a prime position and outlook to the sea at Portheras with two sides of the courtyard having single-storey barns, and the remaining side having a two-storey barn building that is in a pretty poor state of repair.
To the rear of the main complex of barns, are some store rooms accessed either through the barns or via the area of hardstanding to the side. Further behind the first complex, is a large Dutch barn, with large cattle sheds; all with areas of hardstanding.
A side access road leads down from the larger barns to the main track/lane, and there is an area of the adjoining field to be included with the barns increasing the site to approximately 1.25 acres.
This represents an excellent opportunity for potential development (subject to planning) and is sure to be a popular prospect!
