    About this property

    • Said to have been commissioned by a local sea captain in the 1930's, Beau Vista sits in an elevated position in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
      Parking is found at the foot of a long-stepped path which leads to, passing a fig tree, the side terrace. Pausing beside a large original iron planter allows time to take in the breath-taking views towards The Heligan Estate to the West and Pentewan Sands to the South. Through the front door is a light and airy entrance hall with original terracotta and cream tiles and a beautiful archway leading to the stairs. Many original features can be found throughout the house. The kitchen/diner to the right boasts a large bay widow, again with impressive views and original stained-glass panels. There is a range of fitted kitchen units, including glazed cabinets, solid beech work surfaces and a Falcon Range Cooker. A small porch with side access to the terrace and a utility room, housing the washing machine and boiler can be found to the rear of the kitchen. There is also a decent size shower room.
      The generous reception room to the left has two large windows, one a bay mirroring the kitchen, and an impressive Limestone fireplace with wood burner. A second door leads to the inner hall, off which is a versatile room, a fourth bedroom, second reception, playroom, or study. There is also a useful storage cupboard next to a shower room with walk in shower and an original pedestal wash basin.

      First Floor
      The turning staircase, past a long window overlooking the rear garden, leads to the landing on the first floor. Here you will find three large bedrooms all with views to the front, two with dormer windows, and the principal bedroom which has fitted wardrobes and a small balcony perfect for enjoying glorious sunsets. There is also a sizeable family bathroom, with wood panelling and Velux window, a separate cloakroom, and eaves storage. To the left of the stairs is a fully shelved walk in airing cupboard housing the water tank and access to more eaves storage.

      Gardens and the exterior
      The terraced garden to the rear is home to a plethora of flora and fauna, including two silver birch trees, many established shrubs, a small orchard, and an insect hotel. Once again, the uninterrupted views can be enjoyed from this elevated position.
      The large southwest facing terrace to the front spans the width of the house, wrapping around one side, giving plenty of space for morning coffee, al fresco dining and evening aperitifs.
