Description
THE PLOT - PL23 1LX
KLP are delighted to offer buyers a unique opportunity to acquire a single building plot with arguably some of the finest views available over the River Fowey. Detailed planning approval has been granted for a superb new contemporary home with a floorspace extending to c. 467sqm (5027qft). The generously proportioned new dwelling is planned to comprise a contemporary five bedroom detached home, with entrance on the upper ground floor leading to a lobby, study, W.C., cloakroom, snug and large open plan living room, dining room and kitchen area. On the lower ground floor, four large en-suite bedrooms are proposed along with a utility room and plant room. In addition a notable feature of the design is a master bedroom suite and bathroom incorporated within the 'turret' - all the bedrooms will offer windows with superb views over the River, Fowey and Polruan. Outside the property there are plans for landscaped grounds surrounding the property and a detached garage, along with a terrace accessed from the ground floor. The property also benefits a mooring on Bodinnick foreshore for a rowing boat or dinghy.
This is a truly rare opportunity to create a landmark home in an exceptional setting.
FOWEY
Fowey is regarded as one of the most desirable addresses in Cornwall with its sheltered creeks and coves making it a mecca for sailing. The town has two thriving sailing clubs, a famous annual Regatta and excellent facilities for the keen yachtsman. For a small town, Fowey provides a wide range of shops and businesses catering for day to day needs. The immediate area is surrounded by many miles of delightful coast and countryside much of which is in the ownership of the National Trust. Award winning restaurants, small boutique hotels, excellent public houses etc, have helped to establish Fowey as a popular, high quality, destination. There are several excellent golf courses within easy reach, many world class gardens are to be found in the immediate area and the fascinating Eden Project with its futuristic biomes is just 5 miles to the north west.
There are good road links to the motorway system via the A38/A30. Railway links to London, Paddington, can be made locally at Par, and St. Austell and there are flights to London and other destinations from Newquay.
