DESCRIPTION

A superbly appointed, detached, three double bedroomed, dormer style split-level house which has been greatly improved by the current owners including re-fitted kitchen and bathrooms, the installation of triple glazed windows and an air source heat pump to provide heating and hot water with photovoltaic panels on the roof on an electricity feed-in tariff. We understand from our clients that the renewable heating incentive for the air source heat pump and the solar panels produce a combined income per annum of circa £2,000.

The property is beautifully presented and offers extremely flexible accommodation with lovely living areas which include a sitting room with a triple glazed bay window overlooking the sea, a dining room, a conservatory and a beautifully re-fitted kitchen breakfast room. There is also a double ground floor bedroom with an adjacent bathroom. The ground floor is completed by a side lobby off which is a utility room and gardener’s wc together with internal access to the attached garage. 3 Ref: LCAA7774 On the first floor are two double bedrooms, the master of which has the best views in the house with a panoramic view over St Austell Bay to the Gribbin Headland. The master suite also enjoys a recently re-fitted en-suite shower room and a wall to wall range of built-in wardrobes and a dressing area.

Serendipity may well offer excellent potential for further development either by way of extension or a complete rebuild s the large garden plot could accommodate a larger house (subject to any necessary consents). This property is situated on the corner of Fairway where it joins Sea Road (which is probably the most well thought of private coastal road in this area). Along the length of Sea Road, many of the properties have been extended or completely re-developed in recent years raising the general profile of housing along the road and of course sale prices. With its wonderful sea views and large landscaped garden, Serendipity may fall into this category.

LOCATION

Serendipity is situated on a large garden plot at the junction Fairway and Sea Road which is one of Cornwall’s most coveted private coastal roads. The property enjoys fantastic views out over St Austell Bay and easy access to the South West Coastal Footpath and Carlyon Bay Beach, both of which are a short walk away. The South West Coastal Footpath provides lovely coastal walks in both directions dropping down on to Carlyon Bay Beach. This is a long sandy beach, fronting St Austell Bay, due for re-development, of some old commercial premises at the back of the beach into modern apartments, shops, restaurants and bars. In the opposite direction the coastal footpath drops down into the picturesque port of Charlestown, much used in TV series, films and advertisements, having also been used on several occasions in the filming of the most recent Poldark series. Charlestown offers excellent restaurants, a small collection of quality shops, local inns, its own sandy beach 4 Ref: LCAA7774 and the harbour is home to several tall ships which are often used in filming or can be seen crossing the bay.

Carlyon Bay is found to the south east of St Austell town with highly regarded hotels. A short walk from the property is the Carlyon Bay golf course which is a superb 18-hole coastal golf course with fantastic fairways and views which many golfers travel good distances to enjoy. There are further golf clubs at Porthpean and Duporth and St Austell town provides a wide range of shopping facilities, junior and secondary schools, a wide variety of sports clubs, out of town trading estates and supermarkets. St Austell has a large leisure centre and a mainline railway station that provides a direct link to London Paddington with approximate travel time of 4½ hours. Charlestown junior and Penrice secondary schools are within walking distance and St Austell has its own college for further education.

A few miles to the east is the beautiful harbourside town of with its deep natural harbour and extensive sailing and pleasure craft facilities, yacht club and moorings. The yacht club holds an annual regatta and regular dinghy and yacht races in St Austell Bay throughout the season. Fowey regatta is attended by yacht clubs from around northern Europe and annually features the Red Arrows Aerial Display Team.
