Set high above Camborne and Redruth, Carn Entral Farm offers a rare lifestyle opportunity – a spacious character farmhouse with an attached annexe, set in four acres of land, with breathtaking views stretching towards the north Cornish coast.

Believed to date back to the early 1800s, the farmhouse has been thoughtfully modernised, blending rustic character with contemporary comforts. Exposed granite, beamed ceilings, and feature fireplaces sit comfortably alongside energy-efficient solar panels with 30KW battery storage and underfloor heating.

The home provides a total of six bedrooms across the main house and annexe, making it perfectly suited to large families, multi-generational living, or those seeking a home with income potential.

The land extends to around four acres of pasture, divided into paddocks – ideal for equestrian use or smallholding – while a granite barn with live planning permission provides exciting scope for conversion.

Despite its peaceful, elevated setting, Carn Entral Farm is just 1.5 miles from Camborne, with its shops, schools, pubs, and mainline station (direct trains to London Paddington). The A30 is close by, making this an exceptionally well-connected rural home.
