12 Vicarage Meadow is a detached family home, situated in a peaceful residential road, with views across the town and church, to the Fowey Estuary. The current owners have lived here for over 20 years and during that time have made considerable improvements, and the house and gardens are beautifully presented throughout.

The ground floor comprises an entrance hall with coat cupboard, and a wonderfully spacious and bright living room, with pebble gas fire and full width picture window with views of the water. Open plan through to the kitchen and dining room, and you will find a well-appointed kitchen with a superb range of integral appliances, including a gas range cooker, coffee machine, dishwasher, and fridge. The kitchen is beautifully fitted with a good range of units, including a built-in dresser with wine rack. Sliding doors lead from the kitchen through to the conservatory, which in turn has doors to the terrace and garden. Off the kitchen, is a full width utility room with door to the back garden.

To complement the ground floor bedroom, is an adjoining bathroom, again beautifully fitted. Stairs rise to the first floor, where there are two further bedrooms and a shower room.

Gardens
The gardens are a wonderful feature of 12 Vicarage Meadow, being largely level, and tiered with attractive stone steps and low-level stone walls, with well planted borders and beds. There is a terrace to the rear of the house, approached from the conservatory and a greenhouse is screened by a trailing trellis fence. There is a beautifully presented garden to the front, with a full width stone paved terrace and well-established rockery beds. There is driveway parking for three cars and a single garage.


Vicarage Meadow is a peaceful residential road, situated about half a mile from the harbour and less than a mile from Readymoney Cove, a sheltered, sandy beach situated on the mouth of the River Fowey. Overlooking the beach is St Catherine's Castle, one of a pair of small artillery forts built by Henry VIII in the 1530s to defend Fowey Harbour. Nowadays, this gorgeous waterside town is a popular and bustling community, with a wonderful range of shops, cafes, pubs, restaurants, and hotels. Fowey, like many waterside towns on the south coast, is popular amongst sailors, with its sheltered anchorages and glorious sailing waters, the town is home to two sailing clubs and the famous annual Fowey Regatta. Fowey occupies a picturesque setting, being surrounded by miles of outstanding coast and countryside, much of which is National Trust owned. Communication links are good with A390 being five miles away which then links to the A38 ten miles beyond. Train stations at Par and St Austell, four and eight miles respectively, provide services to London Paddington, and Cornwall Airport is 20 miles distant offering both domestic and international flights.

Readymoney Cove (gorgeous sandy beach) less than a mile, Cornwall Airport 20 miles, St Austell train station 8 miles, Truro 22 miles, Plymouth 32 miles (All distances and times are approximate)
