SETTING THE SCENE

Formally part of St Aubyn Estate, Kemyell Wartha Farmhouse is ideally situated for those who seek a peaceful existence, lying in a small coastal hamlet at the end of a long farm track.

A short walk along the coast to the south, the quaint and historic harbourside community of Lamorna Cove has a unique and somewhat timeless character, largely unchanged over the years, with the granite and slate architecture epitomising the Cornish coastal village sheltering behind the cove and harbour wall itself.

The nearby village of Mousehole to the north along the coastpath was once described by Dylan Thomas as 'the loveliest village in England'. Stone cottages and art galleries huddle around the harbour, which is famously lit up at Christmas. The village has always been home to some fine eateries and The Old Coastguard and No'2 Fore Street are two of the best in West Cornwall.

The colourful town of Penzance provides more extensive shopping and commercial facilities together with regular flights to the Scilly Isles and main line railway connection with overnight 'sleeper' service to London Paddington.

THE TOUR

Perched above the spectacular Cornish coastline, an attractive double-fronted stone farmhouse on the seaward side of a secluded former farm hamlet, typical of those that dot the awe-inspiring coastline of Lands End peninsula. Welcoming, warm interiors await, thoughtfully renovated with a pared-back style that complements its traditional farmhouse bones.

Balancing original character alongside modern comforts, an impressive inglenook fireplace with wood burner is the centrepiece of the sitting room, creating a cosy retreat in all seasons. A separate, full-length kitchen/dining room, and entrance porch leading out to a utility and WC complete the ground floor. Upstairs, three bedrooms (one with en-suite) and a family bathroom are arranged neatly around the landing, with two bedrooms holding far-reaching sea views.

STEP OUTSIDE

Approached via a long, private track that leads to the small hamlet, the house sits in a prominent seaward position looking across open farmland towards the Western Approaches. There is a gated parking area with bin/fuel stores, a small inner stone-walled garden around the house and then a further area of garden laid to grass with fence boundary to the adjoining surrounding farmland.

SERVICES 

Mains electricity, private water supply and drainage and oil fired central heating.
