Description

Whiteford Estate – An Exceptional Country Residence in a Private Parkland Setting 

Set within just under seven acres of established gardens, woodland, and meadowland, Whiteford Estate offers a rare opportunity to acquire a historic and beautifully maintained Cornish estate. Once part of a grand manor lost to fire in 1913, the property now comprises a substantial and beautifully presented period cottage, three walled gardens, several outbuildings, and three additional dwellings—providing flexibility for multigenerational living, guest accommodation, or lifestyle income. 


The Main House – A Large, Characterful Country Cottage with Timeless Features 

Positioned on a gentle slope to take full advantage of the natural light and surrounding views, the principal residence is a generously proportioned five-bedroom cottage that retains many original features. Sash windows, flagstone flooring, vaulted ceilings, and intricate cornicing blend seamlessly with light-filled living spaces across two floors. 

On the ground floor, two south-facing reception rooms provide generous entertaining space. The large, L-shaped kitchen/dining area features traditional finishes and direct access to a veranda and walled courtyard—perfect for indoor-outdoor living. 

Upstairs, two staircases provide flexible access across the first floor. The first staircase leads to the principal suite, offering elevated views and an ensuite bathroom, while three further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete this wing. The second staircase leads to the large vaulted drawing room a woodburning stove, with doors leading out to a terrace and garden loggia; a mezzanine library; a conservatory; and a guest suite with a door opening to its own private walled garden area —an ideal space for hosting, relaxing, or working from home. 

 
Secondary Accommodation – Versatile Living and Proven Income Potential 

Whiteford includes three additional self-contained dwellings: 

The Carriage House – A two-bedroom annexe with open-plan living and doors opening to both the walled gardens and a private courtyard garden. 
The Groom’s House – A charming three-bedroom cottage with its own private walled garden and parking area. 
The Bothy – A characterful one-bedroom cottage with an acre of walled gardens, ideal for guests or holiday rental. 

Each unit is finished to a high standard with ample parking, and offers privacy and flexibility for extended family, guests, or continued use as holiday accommodation. 


The Grounds – Walled Gardens, Parkland, and Historical Features 

The gardens and grounds have been sensitively designed and maintained to offer both beauty and practicality. Several distinct garden areas, each surrounded by the original high Georgian walls, provide structure and seasonal interest, including a productive kitchen garden and orchard. Mature trees, a wildlife pond, and a working waterwheel add heritage character, while a decommissioned indoor pool house offers exciting potential for a wellness studio, gym, or creative workspace. 

Additional outbuildings within the grounds could suit a variety of uses—from workshops to storage or further accommodation (subject to planning). 

 
Location – Private, Yet Conveniently Positioned 

Whiteford is located along a quiet country lane, surrounded by Duchy fields and woodlands and rolling countryside and with no immediate neighbours. The estate lies approximately three miles from Callington and just one mile from the desirable village of Stoke Climsland, with its thriving community, post office shop, church, village hall, and school. 

The A388 is half a mile away, providing direct access to Launceston, Plymouth, and the A38. 

Liskeard station (approx. 11 miles) offers direct rail services to London Paddington in just over three hours. 
Newquay Cornwall Airport is reachable in under an hour, with flights across the UK and Europe. 
There is a good selection of primary and secondary schools nearby, along with access to independent schools in Exeter and the surrounding region. 


In Summary 

Whiteford Estate is a unique offering—a blend of architectural heritage, lifestyle flexibility, and enduring natural beauty. Whether as a primary residence, a country retreat, or an income-generating estate, this is a home of rare distinction, ready to support a modern, connected life in the heart of Cornwall.
