About this property
This gorgeous two-storey house with glimpses of the the Helford River is in the ideal location for families and friends seeking a tranquil holiday in an idyllic location. Surrounded by scenic countryside, it is a perfect base for exploring the beautiful Cornish coast’s breathtaking beaches and attractions. Helford is only 300 metres away and ideal for slowing down and having fun crabbing, enjoying a morning swim or admiring the beautiful creek that inspired Daphne du Maurier’s novel, Frenchman’s Creek. The magnificent botanical gardens at Trebah, shaped by this part of Cornwall’s unique micro-climate, and its sandy beach are just 14 miles away. The fascinating town of Falmouth is less than 20 miles away; discover its maritime heritage and explore Pendennis Castle. Alternatively, put on your walking boots and head out to the South West coastal path to explore the trails and cliff walks along the Lizard Peninsula, just 11.5 miles away.
This is a charming home, recently renovated yet retaining timeless appeal, blending chic styling with classic decor and furnishings. Entry to the property is via 12 external stone steps down from the parking area to the front door and then one small step up into the delightful and spacious entrance hall. Off the entrance hall, there is access to the kitchen, living room and stairs to the first floor. Throughout the property, you will find calming colours that create a relaxing ambience during your stay. Enter the spacious, light-filled kitchen/dining area, and savour memorable meals around the dining table as you relive the day’s adventures. Head through to the lounge, where you can unwind on the comfortable armchairs to read, chat or enjoy afternoon tea on the coffee table. An open fire makes this a cosy space all year round, and patio doors lead from here onto the garden terrace. Two steps down is the beautiful, substantial garden room where you can unwind on the plush sofas or watch a favourite film together on the Smart TV. During the day, catch a few quiet and reflective moments at the window seat. Head upstairs from the hall and you’ll find four sumptuous bedrooms. There is one king-size bedroom, 2 double bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower, and one single bedroom. A family bathroom with a walk-in shower and WC completes the interior features of this marvellous property.
Outside, you’ll discover a large wrap-around garden where you can enjoy hours of fun. For something a little more relaxing, there is a suntrap patio with a table and chairs, perfect for reading a book or sipping a cool drink or al fresco dining. There is gravelled private parking for three cars.
