Description
Rarely, do homes and gardens as enchanting as that of artist and author Penny Black come to the open market. A most magical dwelling in a blissful location, Morvoren (Cornish for mermaid), sits within over half an acre of exquisite gardens which have been a veritable labour of love for the owners. Rustic, vaulted ceilings and exposed beams run throughout the idyllic barn conversion that is modernised and decorated sympathetically with charming bedrooms and open-plan living spaces.
The main entrance is via a sun room, leading straight in to an L-shaped living room that is split across two levels. At one end is a bespoke kitchen with an oil-fired Rayburn cooker and tiled worksurfaces that has sunlight from windows and a rooflight. Adjacent to the kitchen is a dining area, which has three large granite steps down in to a long, dual aspect sitting room with timber double glazed French doors out to the gardens.
The master bedroom sits at one end of the building, and has an ensuite bathroom; both rooms enjoying views of the meticulously curated, but wild, gardens. Three further bedrooms can be found; one of which has been utilised as an artist studio. There is a shower room, and a utility and laundry room. Throughout this delightful conversion, natural light has been carefully considered with deep-set windows with slate cills, to the various rooflights allowing light to flood in.
Outside, the work of an artist and a skilled gardener quickly becomes apparent. A love of nature, wildlife and insects has inspired the creation of these wonderful outdoor spaces that are both beautiful and functional. A meandering lawn interspersed with a variety of both native and subtropical shrubs and plants. The gardens lead you under a mature fig tree, and through to a large clearing of lawn surrounded by trees including some very well established apple trees at the end. Granite boulders rise up from the lawn in a colourful rockery area packed with vibrant verbena - bee and butterfly heaven!
At the far end of the gardens, past the apple trees, an opening takes you through to a further meadow area with wild grasses, and a circular pathway mowed to ensure you capture the sea view and outlook toward the Scilly Isles. A timber summerhouse sits in one corner with double doors and large windows for lazy summer afternoons.
Closer to the house, the owners have created a beautiful, sunken seating area that is enshrouded by colourful and eye-catching species of plants and shrubs - this area sits outside the living room; and demonstrates the way in which this home is designed to flow between inside and out. To the rear of the kitchen a further kitchen garden area exists that offers raised beds, and a large timber workshop.
Location
Trevegean is a small hamlet that sits around 20 minutes walk from St Just. With just a smattering of converted farm buildings and cottages, the area is truly unspoilt and rural. As you approach the hamlet, you pass Land's End airport, and proceed out toward the coast, with some spectacular views of the sea and the Brisons. A footpath leads you in to St Just via Cot Valley.
