Introduction

This spacious two storey detached coastal home is believed to have been built in the very late 1980’s and has not seen the open market for 33 years. In the early 1990’s the present double garage was added and the original one became the current Hobbies / Store Room. 10 to 15 years ago a conservatory was built to the rear with access from the Kitchen. The house is carefully designed to allow all principal reception rooms to enjoy the breath-taking views. On the first floor is a spacious landing and four double bedrooms which all capture the superb views. Two of the bedrooms have en-suite facilities and a family bathroom serves the remaining two bedrooms.

Description

The property is in need of modernisation which has been factored in the marketing guide price. There is potential to extend or re-configure, subject to any relevant planning consents. The west facing gardens at Brantfield approach one third of an acre and are relatively private being enclosed by mature hedging. There is a sunny patio terrace out from the main lounge and conservatory, perfect for relaxing, barbeques and alfresco dining whilst admiring the vista and the glorious sunsets in the evenings. The gardens drop down in a series of terraces culminating in a woodland area, perfect for those who could potentially landscape to create more sitting areas or allow to grow for more of a natural look. With no onward chain an appointment to view is advised.

The Views

Mere photography does not do justice to the beautiful views. It is rare to find a property with such uninterrupted views across different aspects of the coast including the well regarded and beautiful sub-tropical gardens of St Just Church. The inspiring views span out over the historic creekside church to St Just Creek, including the bar and boat yard, before stretching across the mile-wide waters of the Carrick Roads from the Fal estuary all the way to Mylor Harbour and Restronguet Creek. You can also see across towards Falmouth and Penarrow Point and out to far reaching rolling Cornish countryside; a true panorama of mixed and ever-changing scenery you will never get tired of looking at.
