• The availability of Deva represents one of the very last opportunities to acquire a prestigious waterfronting plot with huge scope for redevelopment in one of Cornwall’s most sought after private roads.

• A good size Colt bungalow of largely timber construction is of generous proportions with over 1,600sq.ft. of accommodation is habitable and ready for occupation but due to the quality of the site/location there is great scope for significant improvement or total replacement with a new dwelling (subject to gaining necessary consents although the principle for a replacement dwelling is well established by the current owners. N.B. see agents note 2).

Ref: LCAA7377 3

• The property sits in a generous plot which is over 200ft. in depth and over 70ft. in width with long gently sloping rear lawned gardens which enjoy a fantastic bright south westerly aspect perfect for afternoon sun enjoying fantastic views across Restronguet Creek to Point and the unspoilt countryside beyond.

• The property has about 75ft. of direct waterfrontage and ownership to mean high water with steps from the bottom of the garden down to the foreshore. Tidal moorings in the creek are available by application.

• Situated towards the end of a quiet private no-through lane, the situation is of peace, tranquillity and seclusion with the tidal creek below a haven for bird life and a fantastic facility for sailing, paddle boarding, kayaking etc. and yet is also an incredible convenient location accessible to both the city of Truro (just 4 miles) and Falmouth (approximately 7 miles).

• Sold with immediate vacant possession – no onward chain.

LOCATION Trolver Croft is one of the most highly regarded and sought-after roads in Cornwall being within only 4 miles of the City of Truro yet fronting one of the most beautiful and unspoilt creekside scenes available anywhere. It is a location which is deemed both a SSSI (Site of Special Scientific Interest) and AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty). With a westerly outlook over Restronguet Creek to the perfectly maintained Estate farmland of Carclew and with the sailing waters of the Carrick Roads immediately on your doorstep, the Parish of Feock and more immediately Trolver Croft are for many the perfect location. Towards the mouth of the Restronguet Creek are deep water moorings and there are further facilities available at Loe Beach (within 1 mile), Mylor (approximately 5 miles by road, 1 mile by water) and Falmouth. Any keen yachtsman will know that the sailing waters around Falmouth Bay and along the south Cornish coastline are some of the best in northern Europe with both Fowey and Helford Rivers within day sailing distance, although there are many nearer inlets, creeks and harbours to explore. A short row across the creek takes you to the famous Pandora Inn which has for centuries welcomed mariners with its quayside dining and remains highly regarded to this day. Ideally positioned between the Cathedral City of Truro and the famous Port of Falmouth (approximately 4 miles and 7 miles respectively) Trolver Croft is situated perfectly to take advantage of the two best served towns in Cornwall. The City of Truro is the main commercial, administrative, legal and retailing centre and offers private and state schooling facilities at both primary and secondary levels. There is a mainline rail link to London Paddington (travel time approximately 4½ hours) and nearby Newquay Airport provides daily flights to London Gatwick along with other internal and international destinations. There are several nearby 18-hole golf courses, the nearest being the picturesque Killiow County Estate. All of these factors combine to create one of the most convenient yet outstandingly beautiful locations in Cornwall.

The property is accessed off Trolver Croft private road onto a wide tarmac driveway giving parking for multiple vehicles and flanked on either side by well established borders stocked with many flowers and flowering shrubs including rhododendrons and azaleas. The driveway leads to the front of the house where the access to the garage can be found to one side along with a gated entrance into a side passage and the front door. A slated pathway leads around the southern side of the house passing further established hedging and borders culminating at the rear gardens and terrace. Accessed from either the wide sliding glazed doors of the living room or from either side of the house is a full width slated sun terrace facing in a westerly direction which is the perfect place to enjoy what is one of the most tranquil and picturesque outlooks anywhere in Cornwall, let alone within 4 miles of the City of Truro. The terrace runs around the house to a door leading back into the workshop area and also has slate topped steps leading down through established shrubs to the nearly level lawn beyond. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn but there are also two well stocked planting areas to break-up the eye line as you gaze towards the views. At the bottom of the garden is a trellised seating area positioned to capture the last of the evening sun whilst looking upstream towards Point Village and quay. A gateway leads from one corner of the garden down a gently meandering flight of steps to the foreshore below where there is a small raised block built area perfect for dinghy storage and there is also a fixing point for an outhaul mooring. The foreshore is mainly shingle and is accessible by shallow draft boats from approximately mid-tide. As well as being the perfect place to launch a boat from this setting would also suit a keen fisherman, birdwatcher or anyone who appreciates the beauty of nature.
