Swallow Barn, Mabe – A Truly Exceptional Rural Retreat
Swallow Barn is a truly outstanding rural home, perfectly combining peace, privacy, and convenience. Nestled in a tranquil, tucked-away location, this remarkable property lies just minutes from both Falmouth and Penryn, forming part of a small, exclusive development of similar character properties on the edge of Mabe village.
This beautiful granite-fronted barn conversion occupies an enviable elevated position above College Reservoir, enjoying uninterrupted 180-degree panoramic views across the water and surrounding countryside. Accessed via a 600-metre private driveway from the Argal Reservoir side of Mabe, the approach itself sets the tone, offering a rare sense of seclusion and serenity.
The property enjoys its own gated driveway and private front garden, further enhancing its privacy. Across the quiet access lane lies an expansive area of mature gardens, perfectly positioned to capture the stunning views over College Reservoir. Within these gardens sits a charming detached timber chalet, currently used for overflow accommodation, however it would also make a useful additional family or work from home space if required. This delightful retreat opens onto a timber-decked terrace, providing an idyllic spot to enjoy a morning coffee while taking in the breathtaking scenery.
Inside, Swallow Barn has been tastefully designed and finished to a high standard throughout, offering generous and flexible living accommodation. The welcoming entrance hall includes a useful study area and provides access to both the main living spaces and the bedroom wing.
The triple-aspect living room is a standout feature, a light-filled space with beautiful hardwood flooring, a focal-point wood-burning stove, and captivating views towards the reservoir. The spacious kitchen and dining area forms the heart of the home, fitted with a stylish range of units, polished granite work surfaces, and a feature ‘Stanley’ range cooker, creating the perfect setting for family life and entertaining.
The rear wing of the property offers a spacious hallway, a luxuriously appointed main bathroom, and three double bedrooms, all finished with hardwood flooring. The principal bedroom enjoys a recently fitted en-suite shower room, finished to a superb standard. The main bathroom is equally impressive, featuring a generous shower enclosure, modern fittings, and a corner spa bath for added luxury.
Outside, the property provides parking for two to three vehicles on the front driveway, with a generous double garage located to the rear. A nearby footpath also provides easy access back into the village of Mabe, this footpath leading through Antron Lane and entering the village on Church Road close to the centre, therefore placing the village within easy walking distance.
In every respect, Swallow Barn represents a rare opportunity in today’s market, a home of exceptional quality in a setting of remarkable tranquility and beauty.
Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate this stunning rural home.
