DETAILS Secret Cornish Estate: A Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity Tucked away in the heart of Cornwall lies Tregoose, a remarkable 98-acre estate that offers a unique blend of historical charm, modern luxury, and absolute privacy. Remodelled in 1862, the estate's origins trace back to at least the 11th century, as documented in the 1086 Domesday census. The field maps surrounding Tregoose have remained largely unchanged since the 1300s, preserving the estate's historical essence.
At the centre of this magnificent property stands the main house, a stunning 7-bedroom, 6-bathroom residence. The house, fronted by a ha-ha ditch, boasts what might be the best view in all of Cornwall. Two charming staff cottages, including one that dates back to the 1500s, provide additional space for guests or staff, maintaining the estate's tradition of hospitality and grandeur. Wandering through the estate, one discovers a traditional courtyard of former cattle barns, beautifully preserved walled gardens, and an extensive orchard brimming with Mediterranean fruit trees. Equestrian enthusiasts will find six traditional stables complete with a hayloft and tack room, plus a seventh stable, offering ample space for horses. Classic car aficionados will appreciate the insulated garaging housed within a former granite barn, featuring an internal repair bay.
For recreation, Tregoose offers a grass tennis court, 1000 metres of river frontage, and woodland trails. An 18th-century mill, complete with a waterwheel, stands as a testament to the estate's rich history and potential for conversion. Natural beauty abounds, with two granite quarries, a long private entrance drive, and absolute seclusion-no part of the farm is accessible to the public. The estate is a paradise for sporting enthusiasts. Excellent woodcock shooting and roe deer stalking are available, while the diverse wildlife includes nesting barn and tawny owls, peregrine falcons, otters, and rare anemones.
Modern agricultural facilities are situated a mere five-minute walk from the main house. A range of modern buildings offer potential for development, with one off-lying building poised to become an award-winning Class Q house, subject to consent. The highly productive arable land is currently let on a short-term basis to a reliable neighbouring farmer, ensuring that the estate's agricultural heritage remains intact.
Privacy at Tregoose is unrivalled. A long private drive, double-gated entrance, and a scenic 650-metre lane adorned with rhododendrons, azaleas, camellias, and magnolias lead to the heart of the estate. With the nearest neighbours over 750 metres away, one can enjoy unparalleled seclusion. Despite its seclusion, Tregoose is conveniently located near numerous amenities. The nearby villages of Gweek and Constantine, as well as the towns of Helston and Stithians, offer a range of local attractions, sports clubs, and recreational facilities. Rowing sculls and eights at Stithians Lake, memberships at local golf clubs-including championship courses like St Mellion, Trevose, and St Enodoc-and direct train lines from Redruth to London Paddington ensure that Tregoose is both a secluded retreat and a gateway to broader adventures.
The estate's fertile farmland includes approximately 60 acres of early cropping arable land, currently growing potatoes and cauliflower for Waitrose. This land is let to a nearby farmer, generating a reliable income. The western boundary features around 10 acres of permanent pasture, ideal for horses, sheep, and cattle, while about 30 acres of ancient sessile oak woodland provide a habitat for a diverse range of wildlife.
Tregoose is also home to two granite clapper bridges that span the river, adding to the estate's unique charm. The woodland is famed for its English bluebells, considered the finest in Cornwall. Two well-maintained modern buildings are positioned 100 metres from the original courtyard, constructed with block, timber, and concrete sheets.
SCHOOLS Constantine village boasts an exceptional pre-school nursery and primary school, reputedly the finest primary school in Cornwall. Constantine Primary School was once ranked as the number one primary school in the county and maintains a stellar reputation.
In nearby Gweek, the Zelda School is rated outstanding for Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. For secondary education, state schools are available in Helston, the Lizard, and Penryn.
