Description

A STUNNINGLY CONVERTED 3-bedroom FORMER BARN, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Bere Peninsula and Tamar Valley. This unique home features a SPACIOUS MASTER SUITE and a secluded guest retreat perched above a detached DOUBLE GARAGE.

SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
Tucked away at the end of a private driveway shared with just one other home, Ashen enjoys a wonderfully secluded setting with sweeping views over open farmland and the unspoiled beauty of the Bere Peninsula.

Once a barn, this unique residence has been thoughtfully converted with a reversed layout to take full advantage of its stunning surroundings. The craftsmanship is exceptional throughout, with the centrepiece being a striking, handcrafted spiral staircase that rises from the entrance hall to the first-floor living spaces, then continues up to a charming mezzanine office or study.

Character and quality define the interiors, with exposed beams and stonework, premium flooring, and bespoke finishes that add warmth and individuality.

The accommodation includes a generous master suite complete with a dressing room, luxurious en-suite bathroom, and even a wood-burning stove for added comfort. A second bedroom and bathroom are also located on the ground floor, while a separate guest suite above the detached double garage offers privacy and flexibility.

The setting is truly special. Just beyond the village and close to the local station on the Tamar Valley branch line, Ashen is perfectly placed for both peace and convenience. The home is one of only two in this tranquil location, enjoying uninterrupted westerly views over the Tamar Valley and towards the Cornish hills beyond.

The nearby railway line passes through a quiet cutting beside the driveway, and with just 18 (slow-moving) trains per day connecting to Plymouth (just 8 miles away), it’s a charming and practical link to the city without disturbing the serenity.

Agent's note: A portion of ground, adjacent to and including some of the driveway, is rented from the Mount Edgcumbe Estate at an annual rent of approximately £35.
