This wonderful family home, with additional detached cottage and log cabin, is found just on the outskirts of the delightful village of Golant. The village itself is set on the edge of the River Fowey and has become popular for its stunning location and offers a range of very characterful and very contemporary properties. Golant has the benefit of a village public house and wonderful riverside walks as well as river access. The river is a major attraction for yachtsman with its stunning creeks and access to the quaint restaurants and unusual shops of Fowey.
St Austell is the nearest major town and has a wide range of facilities and supermarkets. The Cathedral City of Truro is the cultural and commercial centre for Cornwall with a wide range of schooling, business and recreational facilities. Plymouth is a fascinating City with a huge range of shops, restaurants and a university. The city also has ferry links to France and Spain as well as an airport for a range of flight options.
This wonderfully light and spacious stone faced barn conversion has been beautifully restored over the past five years to provide an excellent degree of individual character and charm with some modern touches. Approached via a private wooded driveway leading into a very pretty walled courtyard, the first impressions of this property are truly breathtaking. From the 47ft sitting room with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams to the excellently appointed kitchen and dining area with slate flagged floor, simply no expense has been spared to create this fine family home.
Across the courtyard lies a two bedroom cottage which has also been improved in recent years to the same quality and attention to detail as the main home. This cottage presents any new owner an additional space to house a dependant relative or to use as an income stream to holiday or short hold tenancy let. The present owners have enjoyed a generous income from this cottage over the last few years. The gardens and patio area have been thoughtfully landscaped and are planted with some interesting and mature shrubs and trees. Above this area is an enclosed two and a half acre paddock with summer house, which has been recently converted into a log cabin style holiday home and enjoys an extremely high occupancy rate from the glamping community as from this spot there are the most delightful views over the river and surrounding countryside toward St Winnow.
In all a truly unique opportunity to acquire such a splendid home and as such interest is bound to be high therefore your earliest viewing is most highly recommended.
