Hayle waterfront house with wow factor on the market for the first time

A five-bedroom detached house with a landscaped waterside garden and uninterrupted views across the Hayle Estuary to the open sea of ​​St Ives Bay has gone on sale for the first time.

Found in a select enclave of similar homes on the edge of Hayle, Sheerwater boasts a fabulous front line position and is within walking distance of the mainline train station, beaches and all the town’s many amenities.

On the market for the first time since its construction in 2007, the property on Carnsew Meadow is in turnkey condition and offers approximately 3,200 sq ft of versatile space with annex potential. However, the property’s wonderful waterfront location and incredible views are perhaps its best attribute.

Marketing agents Lillicrap Chilcott said: “This three-storey house has obviously been very well maintained and modernized by our clients who have enjoyed living here and have chosen this particular plot of land for its exact position with the views almost straight from Hayle Estuary to St Ives Bay.

“The large strip of water immediately behind the house is an RSPB sanctuary, so it lends itself to a peaceful setting, frequented by all kinds of bird species for which the Hayle Estuary is famous.

“The golden sands beyond line the river courses, with sand dunes on the Hayle side of the estuary and Lelant Golf Course and St Uny’s Church standing proud on the hill on the other.”

Sheerwater has been well laid out, with individual reception rooms flowing together and the light-filled sitting room, dining room and conservatory running from the front to the back of the house, giving them all a water outlook.

At the heart of the house is a spacious kitchen and breakfast room with a quality kitchen and a large picture window. Beyond this is a rear kitchen or utility with a utility room off and travertine tiled shower room which is ideal for rinsing off after a day on the water.

There is also an integral double garage and due to the way the rear kitchen, shower room and first floor lounge above are laid out there is scope to create a spacious annexe.

The views get better and better on each floor of the house. The large first floor lounge has a partially vaulted ceiling, wood burning stove and balcony. There are three further double bedrooms on this floor – one en-suite – plus a bath with shower and a fifth bedroom or study.

The entire upper floor of the house is currently used as a huge master bedroom with two shower rooms, two balconies, a walk-in closet and a large walk-in closet that could also function as an independent double bedroom with en-suite bathroom.

Outside there is driveway parking and beautiful front and rear gardens with decking and level lawns overlooking the water.

Sheerwater has an asking price of £1,050,000. For more details contact Lillicrap Chilcott on 01872 273473.
