Situated in a blissfully peaceful and secluded location in rural north Cornwall is Mellionnec Vean, a magnificent Grade II listed mellow stone building, sympathetically converted by the vendors to create three individual properties in one with a discerning style throughout.
It is understood that Mellionnec Vean was originally designed by notable Gothic Revival architect William White (1825-1900), known as Lowertown Barns, and acquired by the vendor in 1990 from the Hoblyn Estate. The detached property sits within mature gardens and grounds of approximately 0.5 acres and incorporates its own large natural spring-fed pond.
The barns have been thoughtfully converted into three individual and separate properties - Lowertown Barn, The Hideaway and Lost Barn totalling 3,000 square feet of versatile accommodation. Each property has been meticulously designed, providing stylish and contemporary interiors to complement the original character.

Lowertown Barn, the owners accommodation, has a stylish and high quality open-plan living space and two large double bedrooms each with vaulted ceilings and luxurious en-suite facilities - including a freestanding roll-top bath. The Hideaway is an elegant one-bedroom retreat.
From the lofty, open-plan living area, the eye is drawn immediately to the galleried bedroom above, lavishly luxurious with a freestanding bathtub at the end of the bed. Lost Barn is a two-bedroom property with a generous sitting room and elegant floor to ceiling windows filling the space with natural light. Just off the sitting room, a well-equipped kitchen with sociable breakfast bar and Range cooker provides a homely hub.
Mellionnec Vean sits centrally within approximately half an acre of mature beautifully stocked and maintained gardens and grounds offering peaceful and tranquil surroundings. Accessed from the quiet country lane, the gravelled drive gives parking and turning space for many vehicles.
The property sits within the quiet hamlet of Colan, five miles from Newquay and six miles from Watergate Bay. With a guide price of £1.4m, contact Jackie Stanley on 01841 532555 for more information.
