  • The modern barn is open plan and located in the sleepy village of Trevellas.
  • The property also offers beautiful views of the Cornish countryside.

An impressive barn conversion situated in the Cornish countryside, with breathtaking far reaching views, is up for grabs for around £800,000.

Not only does the lavish home feature two minimalist bedrooms, it also features a one-bedroom annex for potential future guests.

Situated in Trevellas, a sleepy village nestled close to the cliffs of the north Cornish coast, the property also features a barn with an outboard motor that has been converted into a studio and workshop.

But this home doesn’t just boast a host of modern conveniences, like ground-mounted solar panels and a polytunnel – it also has a rich history and a staggering price tag.

This contemporary barn conversion is more than meets the eye. During the Second World War it was an air raid shelter for 50 people.

The site where the building is located previously served as RAF barracks in Nissenhutten.

Remnants of the site’s rich history can still be seen today, with two dilapidated sanitary blocks and an underground air raid shelter.

Just four miles away is Perranporth Airfield, which operated as a Spitfire base during World War II.

Full of possibilities for potential future owners, there is also the option to rent out the outbuilding and even build on the original property.

A comfortable and chic home, the conversion features an open-plan living space sandwiched between two en-suite bedrooms.

The building overlooks the beautiful Cornish countryside and is energy efficient in both respects.

A burning stove keeps the former tractor shed nice and warm while the 4 kW solar panels capture sufficient energy.

Just moments from Cornwall’s first-class beaches, this property is perfect for those who want to relax in the comfort of mother nature.

The house is just a few miles from the village of St Agnes and Trevellas.

It comes shortly after a clifftop bungalow with stunning postcard views of an iconic Cornish beach came onto the market for the first time in a century.

The one-bedroom house, which is for sale with a guide price of £395,000, has a striking stone wall and is built into the cliffs of Porthscylla in Cornwall.

It’s no wonder that this cosy cottage overlooking Porthcurno beach has been in the same family for over 100 years.

The barn is an ideal spot for potential future owners and also has an attached shed for an extractor and solar panels.

It’s not just the sensational views that will entice buyers though; with the famous Minack Theatre nearby, Poldark fans may be tempted to set up shop here.

Future residents can enjoy the peace and quiet of Porthscylla, yet they are just a stone’s throw from Penzance.

Just a 22-minute drive away, potential future residents can also head to West Cornwall’s largest city and enjoy the hustle and bustle.

While the property has a slew of enticing amenities, like a patio and 1.94 acres of grounds stretching over the cliff, there’s a catch.

Although the one-bedroom chalet-style bungalow has remained in the same hands for decades, it requires quite a bit of work.
