Description

We hope you love our house as much as we do. Built in the 1700's it fronts the tidal river and has amazing views from every window. It is like being on a boat! Beautiful wild cliffs and beaches are 8 minutes away and are great for surfing, swimming, sailing etc. You can bodyboard or canoe from outside the house when the tide is in and also fish from the shoreline. We have one mooring but it is tidal. Our gardens and field back onto forest. and we are within walking distance of Millbrook The space This amazing waterside house was built in the 1700's. It has river views from every room from where you can watch the boats and birds along the tidal water. 8 minutes drive gets you to the best beaches ever, they go on for miles and also to the beautiful villages of Kingsand/Cawsand which have good food, great views over the water and really safe bathing. Millbrook is our local bustling village, good for all needs and is a walk or drive around the river and lake. The house has a lovely mellow walled patio to the front and side and then steep steps up to the main gardens behind which are on several levels. Further back and you reach our half acre orchard, filled with bluebells in Spring. Great for picnics. The house? Well it has great heart and soul. Two double bedrooms are available to you, all with huge beds. One is a 6ft Super King size and the other is a King sized bed. Both have super comfy top quality mattresses and bedlinen. There is a lovely natural stone floored shower room with loo. Downstairs has two entrances to the back and front of the house. Natural slate floor runs throughout the house and the sitting room is large and has a separate dining room area. The old pine table seats 10 comfortably. There is a large stone fireplace in the sitting room plus two cast iron radiators. Two large velvet sofas plus an additional chair seat up to seven people plus we have old kilim rug floor cushions around a very large old table on castors. This room has the most amazing views especially when the sun is setting. The kitchen has views in three directions and has everything you might possibly need to whip up a feast. Contemporary white units, white large gas range cooker and wood work tops, large fridge/freezer, dishwasher and quirky bits. There is a separate utility room with a washer and separate dryer and a downstairs toilet. This house is eclectic. It's furnished for comfort and it is lit by low lights and quirky stuff. It's first and foremost our primary home.. Everything in it we want to use ourselves and we treat our guests the same way. The walks in the area are amazing and we have many grand old homes close by, many of which stage festivals amongst them Port Elliot and also Mount Edgcumbe. Beaches are splendid and if you want the buzz of a city Plymouth is easily accessible via Torpoint car ferry (15 mins drive away), Cremyll foot ferry (a nice walk or a short drive away), or the Tamar Bridge, (25 mins away). This part of Cornwall known as the Rame is tagged Cornwall's Forgotten Corner. Once you've been here you won't forget it. Oh yes, we have TV with all the usual suspects, terrestrial, Netflix etc, /DVD/CD player, other music systems, Wifi, books, toys, magazines and so much more.... Guest access You have the entire run of the house and grounds less one locked bedroom suite upstairs. You will be given a key code to open the key safe when you arrive.
