Auction Lot ID: 8659 4 bedrooms (1 en-suite) 2 reception rooms 1 bathroom, 1 shower room Double garage Wonderful harbour & sea views Freehold SITUATION: The River Fowey is a charming and picturesque estuary which joins the sea off south Cornwall between Readymoney Cove and Polruan, stretching upstream for about 6 miles to the historic town of Lostwithiel, with a good deep water channel until just short of Golant, renowned for its safe anchorage and sailing. In the summer months Fowey is a haven for sailors with the Royal Fowey Yacht Club and the Gallants Sailing Club at opposite ends of the main street, both overlooking the harbour and moored yachts, and both playing host to regular racing. The harbour has all the activity of a busy working harbour with ships of nations entering and leaving the harbour whilst the town itself is one of Cornwall's most historic and unspoilt seaport towns. Much of the wooded banks opposite Fowey surrounding Pont Pill creek are in the ownership of the National Trust. The beautiful coastal footpath known as the Hall Walk runs between Polruan and Bodinnick and continues along the South Cornish coast. The novelist Daphne Du Maurier came to Fowey in her early twenties and immediately fell in love with the town, living for many years at Bodinnick where her parents bought a house in 1926. It was here she wrote The Loving Spirit which was published in 1931. Today the Du Maurier Festival is an important annual event in the Fowey calendar. There are mainline rail stations at nearby Bodmin, St.Austell, Par and Lostwithiel. The south coast ports of Polperro and Looe are about 15 miles to the east and the old market town of Liskeard is about 18 miles distant. The city of Plymouth with it's airport and newly re-opened shopping centre is approximately 34 miles to the east. There are also daily flights to London Gatwick and Stansted from Newquay airport on the north Cornish coast.

The accommodation includes a stunning openplan kitchen/family room, opening through to a conservatory, which in turn leads out onto the fabulous slate-flagged sun terrace. The sitting room with fireplace also opens out onto the terrace, whilst at the rear of the house and leading off the large, light reception hall there is a cloakroom, office and utility. An elegant turning staircase leads to the first floor where there are four bedrooms, a shower room and two bathrooms.A private driveway and garage is a rarity inFowey for a property with such a superb aspect and the surrounding grounds include lawns, sun terrace, flower beds and vegetable garden.
