THE LOCATION
Church Road has long been one of the most desirable and sought -after
addresses in south Cornwall; winding its way along the south bank of this
pretty creek from the village of Mylor Bridge to the church and yacht marina
at Mylor Churchtown.
The village of Mylor Bridge is a thriving community with village school, public
house, newsagent/post office, grocery store, butchers, Creekside cricket field
and boatyard. Mylor Yacht Harbour is positioned at the entrance to Mylor
Creek where it joins the extensive sailing waters of the Carrick Roads. The
yachting and boating facilities at Mylor are probably the finest in Cornwall
with marina berths, moorings, chandlery, boatyard, bars, restaurants and pub
offering a community with first class facilities within a ten-minute walk.
A few miles to the south, the university town of Falmouth is home to the
world's third largest natural harbour and the sailing waters of the Carrick
Roads. About 10 miles to the north, the cathedral city of Truro provides a good
choice of state and private education, a large range of high street shops and
mainline rail link to London Paddington with overnight 'sleeper' service. There
are daily flights to London from Newquay Airport.
THE PROPERTY
Sitting perched on the hill around halfway between the village and the harbour is 'Cartreff' - a handsome property which can't help but make a striking impression when
approached from the road, located towards the end of this no through road and as such offering privacy and tranquillity with bird song and tide to be your background noise.
The original house is an Edwardian double fronted bay windowed villa which now has a wonderful green-oak framed extension to the Southerly side, canted at an angle to take
full advantage of the creek outlook. All is immaculately presented to a high specification contemporary standard without losing the original charm and elegance of this period
home including a mix of Siematic cabinets, Corian worktop, Gaggeneau appliances in the kitchen and two wood burners in each of the reception rooms.
Downstairs the reception room choice is of a cosy bay window lounge, open plan 28ft long kitchen and dining room with the large living room on the ground floor of the extension
opening on to a private decked space with creek outlook. Upstairs are five bedrooms in total; three with cathedral ceilings, the master en-suite being the first floor of the
extension with water views and direct access to a veranda glass fronted balcony. The other four double bedrooms are within the original house with use of another en-suite and
family shower room. The property further benefits from a sixth bedroom / study downstairs, utility area, and downstairs WC. Our clients have recently replaced the oil central
heating with a state-of-the-art air source heat pump coupled with the solar panels, providing a much more efficient and 'eco-friendly' way of heating the house.
The outside of Cartreff doesn't disappoint either; beautifully landscaped and tiered into the hill with a mainly Southerly aspect. Pebbled and stepped pathways criss and cross
through the stunning established garden, well stocked with a focus on sub-tropical planting in mind. There is a large lawned area, decked space to the front off the living room
and patio to the rear directly accessed from the kitchen so perfect for al-fresco dining. Accessed from Church Road is driveway parking for up to four vehicles leading to a pitched
roof timber clad double garage - a real rarity in this location! There is foreshore to the front of the house over the road which Cartreff has a right to licence, linking you with the
tidal river and on to Carrick Roads.
This is an opportunity not to be missed, one of the very finest Creekside homes we have seen in recent times and recommended without hesitation.
