3 Ref: LCAA7872 DESCRIPTION

Boskenna was built, we understand, in 1974 and has been in our clients’ ownership ever since.

At the end of a low stone wall with well maintained hedging, a five bar timber gate opens to the tarmaced driveway which in turn leads to the double garage and the rear of Boskenna.

An entrance porch with separate wc opens to the reception hallway with a turning staircase to the first floor and a door to the kitchen. Off the kitchen is a large utility with a door to another entrance vestibule with access to the garage. Off the reception hall is an impressive dining room and a spacious lounge both facing the garden and the views. The lounge has a door opening to the front sun terrace and a level front lawn. There are also two good sized double bedrooms and a large family bath/shower room on the ground floor.

A turning staircase rises to a spacious landing with doors to four double bedrooms, one having an en-suite shower room, and a family bathroom. The fourth bedroom has interconnecting doors through to the annexe. There is also a very impressive, large second sitting room with patio doors opening to a balcony from which one can enjoy superb, far reaching views across the golf course, out to and the sea beyond.

Boskenna has the added benefit of its own self-contained first floor annexe which would be perfect for dual occupancy or, as our clients have used it, as a holiday rental. The annexe offers versatile accommodation with a spacious living/dining room providing good views out to sea with a kitchen and bathroom off as well as a good sized double bedroom. The second double bedroom, which is accessed off the living/dining room through interconnecting doors, can serve as another bedroom to the main house. The annexe has its own separate access with a door from the driveway opening to a staircase which leads to the living/dining room.

One of Boskenna’s biggest assets is its outside space and it boasts a broad frontage to the road with a large, level lawned front garden offering a good deal of privacy bounded by a low stone wall with hedging. A tarmaced driveway to the side of the lawn leads to the rear of Boskenna and culminates in a large parking area proving parking for several vehicles as well as giving access to the integral double garage.

Seldom do such large and impressive houses offering such versatile accommodation become available in this prime coastal location, just a short walk from the beach and the golf course and an early viewing is wholeheartedly recommended by the vendors’ sole agent. 4 Ref: LCAA7872

Constantine Bay is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and has a clean beach which at low tide reveals an expanse of golden sand with smaller sheltered coves at its edges ideal for sunbathing and surfing. Constantine Bay links around to Bay where there is the renowned natural swimming pool at the bottom of the low cliffs which is easily accessible at low tide. The beaches are patrolled by lifeguards during the season.

The nearby provides breathtaking views and gives access to other nearby beaches and Trevose Head to the north which overlooks the mouth of the Camel Estuary and Daymer Bay.
