The property has deceptively spacious accommodation over two floors which would be easily divided into two self-contained properties, subject to any necessary planning permission, set within approximately 8 acres with direct sea views across the valley to St Michael's Mount and beyond. Bowjy Cottage is a good example of a barn conversion which has been converted with much care and consideration, retaining many period features and taking full advantage of the sweep of Mount's Bay and surrounding countryside. A particularly attractive feature is the balcony off the living room, which has rural views and direct views of St Michel's Mount. The gardens offer a good degree of privacy and the land lies to the side and rear of Bowjy Cottage with woodland and natural habitat and paddock areas. The Bowjy is located in the renowned Trevaylor Valley which is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the stream that runs though the valley forms a boundary to the property, which has historically been used for market gardening. To the front there is a gravelled parking and turning area along with a raised lawned area, again with good views. Bowjy Cottage is located in a semi rural location on the outskirts of Penzance, within a short drive of most amenities and with so few properties of this nature available, we recommend an early appointment.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on April 11, 2024 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.

    Any supplementary data should not be relied upon as forming part of any property particulars and OnTheMarket cannot be held responsible for any incorrectness in this data. See here for more information.
