Similar facilities are available at St Germans, which also has a main line railway station providing a useful commuter link to Plymouth (Plymouth to London Paddington 3 hours). Seaton also has a Countryside Park with riverside and woodland walks. Downderry was recently noted by the Sunday Times in a list of the top ten "Best Places to Live by the sea". Golf is available at Portwrinkle, or Looe Bindown. The South West Coast Path is accessed nearby with parts of the neighbouring coastline in the

ownership of the National Trust. The beach has a slipway and offers the opportunity to keep and launch boats (by permit). Seaton beach benefits from a RNLI Lifeguard station during the summer. The sailing waters of the area are favoured by yachtsmen and deep water moorings are available on the Rivers Lynher and Tamar at St Germans, and Fowey/Polruan. Saltash has a Waitrose store on its northern outskirts and the city of Plymouth offers an abundance of facilities centred around the historic and fascinating waterfront areas of the Barbican and Hoe.

DESCRIPTION Maidenhayes has been thoughtfully designed to embrace the truly unique south facing location, set high on the coastal hinterland within unspoilt countryside, the layout and window openings are carefully positioned to capture the beguiling views taking in Dartmoor and the rolling hills of Devon in the north east, to the coastal waters of Whitsand Bay in the south and Looe Bay with Dodman Point beyond in the south west. It is difficult to imagine a better setting.

The house was constructed in 2005 to Canadian "Super E" standards designed to be energy-efficient, healthy, comfortable, and environmentally friendly. Excellent eco credentials give the property an efficiency rating of "C" and the features include high levels of insulation, 3.36kw solar PV, solar thermal, ground source heat pump, heat recovery and ventilation system, western red cedar cladding and full double glazing amongst many others. Extending to about 3031 sq ft the accommodation is of reversed design to capitalise on the views. At first floor level the stunning 28' vaulted sitting/dining room has a triple aspect, two windows, glazed to the apex (14'5") take full advantage of the glorious south and west aspect to the sea. The Altech contemporary wood burner and bamboo flooring

combine to provide a comfortable environment, with ample space for family life and entertaining. The well equipped kitchen incorporates bamboo worksurfaces, Bosch warming drawer, AEG induction hob and two ovens (1 steam). The luxurious master bedroom suite has bamboo flooring, vaulted ceiling and is again glazed to the apex with extraordinary views over open countryside to the sea. The dressing area opens onto a canopied balcony with views and the ensuite bath/shower room is of contemporary quality design with large windows bathing the room in morning light.

A boarded seating area nestles here providing the perfect spot for observing the birds, butterflies and other wildlife this type of garden attracts. The rear garden comprises a large level lawn with young orchard, productive kitchen garden in raised beds and a Woodpecker greenhouse. The "beach hut" with decked terrace provides the perfect spot for "sundowners" whilst observing the garden and architecture of this fabulous house.
