Situation - "Milldowns Farm lies in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, between the charming villages of Zennor and Newmill, just 6 miles west of St. Ives on Cornwall’s dramatic north coast. Surrounded by the striking West Penwith moors, it offers a peaceful rural setting. Nearby Zennor features the historic Tinners Arms pub and St. Senara’s Church, linked to the legend of the Mermaid of Zennor.

The Farmhouse - Dating back to the 1600s, Milldowns Farmhouse is steeped in history and full of character. The spacious farmhouse kitchen features bespoke wooden cabinetry, a Belfast sink, beamed ceilings, and a slate flagstone floor, centred around a large inglenook fireplace. Adjacent is a full-length living room with a wood-burning stove set in a granite inglenook, perfect for cosy evenings. Upstairs, three generous double bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom offer countryside views, with the master enjoying distant sea glimpses. A rare blend of period charm and rural tranquility. Adjoining the farmhouse with internal access from the kitchen is a beautifully appointed, single-story, one-bedroom annexe.

Bramble & Foxglove Barn - Separate from the main house are two beautifully converted stone barns—Bramble and Foxglove. These attached single-storey cottages each offer a spacious double bedroom, open-plan kitchen/living area, and modern shower room, finished to a high standard. Both enjoy private gardens, outdoor seating, and off-road parking. Set in rural West Cornwall, they currently operate as successful holiday lets, providing an idyllic countryside retreat.

Workshop & Barn - A detached, single-storey former milking parlour—now a versatile workshop—features three distinct workspaces. Constructed from stone and block, it offers ample potential for a range of uses. Discreetly positioned behind the workshop is a substantial metal and block-built triple tandem garage, currently used as a games room and gym.

Outside - Set within approximately 1.6 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, the gardens are thoughtfully arranged to serve both the main farmhouse and the two holiday lets. The main house enjoys a private, spacious lawn bordered by mature shrubs, ideal for relaxation or alfresco dining.
