The Property
Tolcarne Merock is a Georgian Grade II listed farmhouse, believed to date from the early 19th century, set among an attractive collection of traditional stone barns, livestock and machinery buildings, and versatile farmland. Enjoying a peaceful rural position, the three-bedroom farmhouse borders a quiet country lane.
The main farmhouse presents a classic, symmetrical east-facing façade with elegant 16-pane sash windows. Low stone garden walls extend from either side of the house, framing the formal gardens and leading around to the rear driveway entrance. These walls, together with the farmhouse and original buildings, form part of the property's listed status. While the barns are not individually listed, they fall within the curtilage of the listed structures.
Set in a highly desirable location set back from the North Cornish coast at St Mawgan, Tolcarne Merock presents a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire an unspoilt farm, within minutes of the beach, with land, the whole extending to about 167 acres (67½ hectares).
Listing:
The Farmhouse and attached walls around the walled garden are Grade II Listed (Entry Number: 1327358) Listing NGR: SW .
Services:
The farm is serviced by mains electricity and private water. The farmhouse is connected to mains foul drainage. None of these services have been tested and therefore no guarantees can be given.
The Land
The farm extends to about 167 acres (67½ hectares). The productive pasture and arable land is described as mainly Grade III with a small section which is Grade II on the Land Classification Map for the area. The non-productive land includes parcels of woodland, as well as wetland containing ponds in the lower valley towards Mawgan Porth, all providing amenity and/or sporting appeal. Diversification income is generated from aviation warning lights in the field nearest Newquay Airport, along with an existing telecommunications mast. Further details are available from the selling agents.
Outbuildings
To the rear of the house, the yard provides access to a large, detached barn set into the natural slope, with further modern agricultural buildings positioned to the south. Two additional traditional stone outbuildings, one enclosed and one open-fronted, complement the farmstead and offer excellent potential for a variety of uses.
