I’ve previously posted about writers’ houses for sale:
Writers' Houses
Another Cornish property owned by a best-selling writer is fresh to the market.
Spy novelist John le Carré died in 2020. His home, Tregiffian Cottage, is in an isolated location on the coast near Saint Buryan:
John Le Carré: Cornwall home of spy author for sale
Estate Agent’s listing: Check out this 4 bedroom detached house for sale on Rightmove
At an asking price of £3,000,000, you’ll need to be a best-selling author yourself – or win the lottery.
Your money might not buy as much peace and seclusion as the photographs suggest, as the South-West Coastal Path runs along the boundary – hikers and keen readers bothered le Carré by knocking at his door. Also, Tater Du Lighthouse is nearby – the bellowing of its fog siren is relentless.
