Description

This detached barn is located between Tregear Vean Farmhouse and the vehicular access serving a complex of neighbouring detached residential barn conversions on the outskirts of the exclusive coastal village of St Mawes. The building is of single storey traditional granite construction under cover of a pitched slate roof.

Internally

The inside of the building comprises of an open plan layout, which has rendered walls, timber lintels above the window and door openings, UPVC windows and exposed timber roof beams. There are a number of rooflights in one of the elevations of the roof and light and power are connected.

Summary

Even though the building does not have residential planning permission, we have on file a favourable report from a local planning consultant providing an assessment on the possibilities of obtaining residential planning permission to convert the current dwelling into potentially a one-bedroom home with a parking space and small front sun terrace.

A Brief History

A translation of the Cornish name, Tregear Vean, indicates that there has been a settlement at this location for many hundreds of years. 'Tregear' means homestead of the fort and 'Vean' means small or probably outlying in this context. Therefore 'Outlying Homestead of the Fort' seems to be a fair interpretation. The great manor of Tregear was, from very early times, the most important estate in the area, comprising most of the Roseland Peninsula and beyond, and is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1085. The whole fascinating history of the district can be read in Laurence O' Toole's book 'The ROSELAND between River and Sea'.
