Description

Trenarth Manor, a charming Grade II listed country estate, lies in the picturesque North Helford area of south Cornwall, surrounded by rolling farmland, wooded creeks, and the beautiful Helford River. The estate has a rich history dating back to the 13th century and has been home to various families over the centuries, including the Trenarth, Trefusis, and Nicholas families. The house itself is a patchwork of styles, reflecting the changing fortunes of its owners, with features including 16th-century cellars, an 18th-century Georgian front, and later 19th-century additions. The estate spans over 120 acres of rolling pasture and woodland, offering uninterrupted views across its land, and is completely private and peaceful. The main house, which is arranged around an Elizabethan courtyard, has 10,847 square feet of beautifully proportioned and character-rich interiors, with historic features such as grand sash windows, an elegant period staircase, and a granite inglenook fireplace. The estate offers endless potential and exceptional lifestyle appeal, with its proximity to the Helford River, nearby villages, and the port and university town of Falmouth.
