The Property A striking property with stone and cedar elevations under a slate roof, Dinyan was completed in 1985 to a design by renowned local architect Roger Hocking. Built on the side of the creek and very much in the style of a boathouse, the property makes the very most of its splendid position with wrap-around timber decks, balconies and a large open sitting room seemingly hanging over the water. Indeed, views stretch up, down and across the creek from all principal rooms. The first impression would lead one to think the property was well ahead of its time and indeed this theme continues inside where the accommodation is light and tastefully finished. The modern, open- plan living area is very much of the moment and incorporates a fitted kitchen and a large reception room with ash floor and a solid fuel burning stove separating the sitting room and dining area. There are three bedrooms split between the first and ground floors, whilst on the lower ground floor and adjacent to the garage is a large 4th bedroom/games room and adjacent store. Perhaps the highlight of its gardens and grounds is the 400ft of frontage to the creek with moorings on licence. The gardens are terraced and include lawns, a wooded primrose meadow and a grassed field to the rear. studio Cottage
