SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Porch, hall, kitchen/breakfast room, huge living/dining room, wc, utility, bedroom hall, master bedroom en-suite, 2 further double bedrooms, bathroom, integral double garage in the early stages of conversion to further accommodation. Outside: generous parking, carport for completion, level lawned creek facing garden and terraces, suntrap courtyard, un-utilised area of garden. DESCRIPTION Beam Reach is a particularly large, detached three bedroomed U-shaped bungalow that was constructed in 1995. The property was built to an individual design based around its outlook over Mylor Creek to countryside beyond. The kitchen/breakfast room, living/dining room and master bedroom all

Ref: LCAA5745 3 enjoy the views which, although are between houses on the opposite side of the road, are still very prevalent and interesting. The tidal creek is home to many birds and is easily deep enough to be navigable by sizable yachts at high tide who come to enjoy the beautiful setting and reputedly the mildest climate in mainland Britain. The bungalow sits on an elevated plateau that provides a high degree of privacy and also allows for a really quite large and level lawned front garden with attractive borders, a mature tree and palms. To the side and front of the house are terraces which then back on to a concealed storage area. At the rear of the house is an elevated area of garden which is currently not used and there is generous parking with the current owners having already started construction work on a double carport that would replace the integral double garage as this has started to become further living space. Neither of these projects are expected to be completed prior to sale and therefore offer an incoming purchaser a choice as to how to arrange the property and also to place one’s own mark upon it. Beam Reach is initially entered through a porch which opens to a reception hall and from here doors lead to the kitchen/breakfast room and an opening gives access to an inner hall. Off the inner hall are the aforementioned integral double garage, a utility room and a wc. The kitchen/breakfast room is modern and attractively fitted with a breakfast bar and space for either a breakfast table or a sofa, as well as enjoying a dual aspect outlook which takes in views to the creek. The living/dining room stretches to 26’1” x 15’8” and not only has a bay window and sliding patio doors facing over the front garden to the creek, but also has glazed double doors to the sheltered suntrap courtyard between the wings of the building. In the far wing are the three double bedrooms, with the master being particularly large and having its own en-suite shower room whilst the

Ref: LCAA5745 4 other two share a family bathroom. It would certainly be feasible to alter the integral double garage to form two further double bedrooms with bathroom facilities and therefore create a five bedroomed, three bathroomed family home.

LOCATION Beam Reach occupies an exceptional position above Mylor Creek with elevated views towards delightful countryside beyond. The property is located about half a mile from the centre of Mylor Bridge and is less than that by foot to Mylor Churchtown where Mylor harbour is situated. Mylor harbour is Cornwall’s most modern harbour facility with many moorings and pontoon berths as well as over wintering facilities and a recently rebuilt yacht club. There are various cafés, restaurants and shops on site as well as Restronguet Sailing Club which holds dinghy racing throughout the year and coaches youth sailing to a national level – indeed this is where a young Ben Ainslie learnt his craft. Mylor Bridge has a good selection of local shops catering for day to day needs with a well regarded junior school, post office, newsagent, butcher and hairdresser. The village is also served by a doctors surgery, dentist and has regular buses to both Truro and Falmouth. There are beautiful walks through the countryside and beside the creeks that lead off the Carrick Roads including around to Restronguet Creek where the famous Pandora Inn can be found. The cathedral city of Truro is about 9 miles away and the port of Falmouth is approximately 4 miles distant and between them they offer the widest range of commercial services, business opportunities, schooling, shopping and leisure facilities in Cornwall. A few miles away is the A39 which runs between Falmouth and Truro and there is easy

Ref: LCAA5745 5 access to the A30 expressway which runs throughout Cornwall and links to the motorway network at Exeter. A branch railway line runs from Falmouth to Truro where it joins the main Penzance to Paddington line with trains from Truro taking around 4½ hours to reach London.

OUTSIDE

Beam Reach is approached by a right of way over a driveway which leads off Church Road and sweeps up and around to a parking area at the rear of the bungalow. Our client has built a granite retaining wall to one side and a concrete rear wall which were to form the basis of a carport although an incoming purchaser could potentially create a garage. A large granite chipped area to the side of this leads around the rear of the bungalow giving plentiful additional storage space and above is an elevated area of garden that is not

Ref: LCAA5745 9 currently used. The rear of the bungalow backs onto mature woodland making for a lovely setting. The bungalow currently has an integral double garage which has only just started to be converted into more accommodation but could easily be returned to a garage if desired. The garage is explained more fully earlier in the details. A broad brick paved parking area leads across the side of the

bungalow to the main entrance and a broad path descends down to the surprisingly large front lawn from where there are views between other properties over Mylor Creek to the countryside beyond. Within the lawn is a palm and a mature tree whilst set at a slightly higher level is a spacious paved terrace which can be approached directly from the living room’s patio doors. Beyond the paved terrace, at the corner of the bungalow is a flint chipped

terrace with a deck at its rear and these two areas both look straight over the front garden to the creek. At the side of Beam Reach are some huge palms and grasses with little used areas of the garden beyond where there are currently sheds and this offers more potential. Between the wings of the bungalow, at its rear, is a 25’ x 20’ paved suntrap courtyard which in the summertime enjoys sun throughout the majority of the day.
