House with terrace Saltash (United Kingdom)
Set in a remarkable position on the banks of the River Tamar, Tamar Bank is an exceptional waterside residence offering direct access to the shoreline below, outstanding river views and a rare connection with one of Cornwall’s most historic waterfront settings. Believed to date back to the mid-19th century, the property occupies a commanding position along Old Ferry Road and enjoys approximately 20 metres of water frontage. It is a home of genuine character, scale and atmosphere, with its outlook, history and setting combining to create a lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find. From the changing tides and passing boats to the far-reaching views across the Tamar, River Tavy and towards the Tamar Bridge and Royal Albert Bridge, Tamar Bank is a property where the waterside position is not simply a backdrop, but a defining part of everyday life. The House The accommodation is generous, elegant and highly versatile, arranged to suit family life, entertaining, home working and multi-generational living. A grand entrance hall creates an immediate sense of arrival and leads through to a series of well-proportioned reception spaces. The main sitting room provides a comfortable and welcoming space, complete with a wood burner, while the formal dining room is ideal for family gatherings and more formal entertaining. One of the standout rooms is the triple-aspect sunroom, which takes full advantage of the position and frames wonderful views across the water towards the River Tavy, the Tamar Bridge and Brunel’s Royal Albert Bridge. The kitchen is a tremendous space, well appointed and designed as a practical yet sociable heart of the home, with a fitted utility room positioned nearby. Also on the ground floor is a further bedroom or study, offering excellent flexibility for those working from home, accommodating guests or seeking a more adaptable layout. A shower room completes the ground floor accommodation, with internal access also leading through to the double garage. On the first floor, four well-proportioned double bedrooms continue the sense of space. The principal bedroom suite is particularly generous, featuring a dressing area and en-suite bathroom, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom. Throughout the home, the river views provide a constant reminder of the property’s exceptional setting. The lower ground floor offers three versatile basement rooms, providing useful additional space and scope for a variety of future uses, subject to any necessary consents. This area could appeal to buyers seeking storage, hobby space, a workshop, home office potential or further lifestyle accommodation. History Tamar Bank is a home with a fascinating history, believed by the current owners to date from around 1841. Its position on Old Ferry Road places it within one of Saltash’s most atmospheric riverside settings, overlooking a landscape shaped by river travel, maritime activity and the historic crossing between Cornwall and Devon. One of the early owners is understood to have been Captain Charles Bampfield Yule, a notable Royal Navy officer and surveyor associated with Admiralty expeditions around Australia, New Guinea and the wider Pacific. His work is understood to be linked with Heron Island in Queensland, while Yule Island in Papua New Guinea is also believed to have been named after him. The property is also understood to have connections with the du Maurier family, adding a further literary association to a house already rich in character. The current owners also understand that Tamar Bank was used during both the First and Second World Wars, including wartime military occupation and associations with senior military figures. Together, these connections give Tamar Bank a rare sense of provenance, combining maritime history, literary interest, wartime association and a truly memorable waterside setting. Outside & Gardens Outside, the gardens extend to approximately 0.22 acres and lead down towards the water’s edge, where a private gateway provides direct access to the shoreline below. This direct connection to the river is one of the property’s most special features and offers a rare waterside lifestyle in the heart of Saltash. The gardens have been arranged to make the most of the outlook, with a mixture of raised terraces, lawned areas and decked seating spaces. These areas provide excellent opportunities for outdoor dining, relaxing and entertaining, all while enjoying the movement, light and atmosphere of the river. Whether launching a kayak from the shore, enjoying evening drinks overlooking the water, watching the tides change or simply taking in the beauty of the Tamar, Tamar Bank offers a lifestyle that feels both peaceful and wonderfully connected to its surroundings. Location Old Ferry Road is one of Saltash’s most atmospheric riverside settings, following the water past Brunel Green and a collection of character cottages. The area has a strong maritime heritage and remains closely connected to the river, with nearby slipways, boat storage and waterside walks all adding to the appeal. Despite its beautiful waterside position, Tamar Bank remains highly convenient for day-to-day amenities. Saltash offers a good range of local shops, a Waitrose supermarket, schools, cafés and services, while the nearby China Fleet Country Club provides golf and leisure facilities. For sailing and watersports enthusiasts, Saltash has a busy sailing club, visitor pontoon, public slipways and access to nearby mooring opportunities. Plymouth city centre, the A38 and Saltash railway station are also within easy reach, making this a rare waterside home that combines beauty, history, practicality and convenience in equal measure. Agent’s Comment Tamar Bank is a truly memorable waterside home. The moment you arrive, there is a real sense that this is a property with a story, from its position on Old Ferry Road and its outlook across the Tamar, to its direct access down to the shoreline below. For me, the magic of the house is the way it combines practicality with atmosphere. It is a generous and versatile family home, but it also has that rare emotional pull that only certain waterside properties seem to have. The views, the garden, the changing tides and the sense of history all add to the feeling that this is somewhere very special. Homes with this level of character, water frontage and historic interest are rarely available, and Tamar Bank is a property that I think buyers will remember long after viewing.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Torpoint (United Kingdom)
Kerslake Mill is a truly special country residence, offering a rare combination of character, space, privacy and flexibility. Set within a peaceful hamlet location, surrounded by open countryside and National Trust land, the property enjoys a remarkable sense of seclusion while remaining within easy reach of Portwrinkle, Whitsand Bay, the Rame Peninsula, St Germans railway station and the city of Plymouth. Originally converted with great sympathy to its historic purpose, the main mill house has been further enhanced during the current vendors’ ownership, with a number of significant improvements carried out over the last decade. The result is a home that retains the charm, proportions and individuality of a former mill, while now offering a more contemporary and refined standard of living. The Main Mill House The main residence provides generous and versatile accommodation arranged over three floors, with a layout that works beautifully for family living, entertaining and working from home. One of the most impressive enhancements is the addition of a striking mezzanine living space within the main reception area, creating a wonderful sense of volume and architectural interest. This has transformed the heart of the home, adding a dramatic yet comfortable living area that makes full use of the property’s character and scale. The sitting room is another beautiful space, centred around a wood-burning stove and enjoying views across the gardens and mill pond. Doors open out to a balcony, creating a lovely connection between the house and its setting, with the water, gardens and surrounding landscape forming a wonderfully tranquil backdrop. The kitchen has also been updated to provide a more modern and practical space, well suited to everyday family life and informal entertaining. The proportions of the room allow for dining and gathering, while the character features, including exposed beams and the building’s original form, ensure the space remains warm, inviting and full of personality. The main bedroom has been thoughtfully remodelled by the current owners, now benefiting from a larger en suite, creating a more luxurious principal suite. Further bedrooms are arranged across the upper and lower levels, offering excellent space for family, guests or blended living arrangements. The accommodation is highly flexible, with a study or fifth bedroom offering the perfect space for a home office, snug, library or occasional guest room. This versatility will particularly appeal to those seeking a lifestyle move without compromising the ability to work comfortably from home. A large utility room provides excellent additional storage and practical workspace, while the integral double garage includes a dedicated workshop area positioned to the rear of one of the bays. Cider Press Cottage One of the most significant changes to Kerslake Mill is the complete renovation and reconfiguration of the former one-bedroom cottage. This has now been transformed into a beautifully presented three-bedroom cottage, offering superb additional accommodation within the grounds. The cottage provides a wonderful open-plan living space with a log burner, giving it a warm and contemporary feel while still remaining in keeping with the rural setting. A small balcony adds further charm and provides a lovely spot to sit and enjoy the surroundings. This separate cottage creates enormous flexibility. It would be ideal for multi-generational living, allowing extended family to live independently yet close by. Equally, it offers clear income potential, either as a holiday let or longer-term rental, subject to any necessary consents and the buyer’s own requirements. For those seeking a lifestyle property with a business or investment angle, the cottage is a major asset and broadens the appeal of the home considerably. Gardens, Grounds and Parking The property is approached via a private driveway, secured by electric gates and complemented by a security camera and entry-phone system. The driveway continues through the grounds before opening into a generous parking and turning area. There is garaging for two vehicles with electric garage doors, together with additional off-road parking for approximately five or six further cars, making the property particularly practical for family life, visiting guests, cottage accommodation or holiday-let use. The gardens and grounds extend to approximately 1.4 acres and provide a beautiful natural setting for the mill. The mill pond remains a key focal point, visible from the main house and helping to create the peaceful, almost storybook quality of the property. The vendors have carried out considerable work to enhance the home and its setting, and while some driveway and garden elements may still offer scope for a buyer to complete or personalise further, the overall feel is one of a deeply attractive and established country residence. The property also benefits from a superb collection of practical outbuildings, including a substantial workshop, a charming summer house, two greenhouses and a recently installed garden shed. A further metal storage shed provides useful space for lawnmowers, gardening equipment and outdoor tools. Lifestyle and Location Kerslake Mill offers the type of lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find: private, characterful and surrounded by nature, yet not isolated. The setting is quiet and tucked away, with landscaped gardens, countryside views and the calming presence of the mill pond, while the South Cornish coast is only a few miles away. Portwrinkle, Whitsand Bay and the South West Coast Path are all within easy reach, offering beaches, cliff walks, coastal scenery and a relaxed Cornish lifestyle. The nearby village of Crafthole provides local amenities, while St Germans railway station offers useful rail connections, including access towards Plymouth and beyond. For those needing access to the city, Plymouth is within commuting distance, offering a wider range of shopping, schooling, professional services, waterfront restaurants and transport links. Agents Comment Kerslake Mill is far more than a period home in a beautiful setting. It is a rare lifestyle opportunity: a substantial and improved former mill house, a separate three-bedroom cottage, beautiful grounds, garaging, parking, income potential and a peaceful position close to the Cornish coast. It will appeal to buyers seeking multi-generational living, those wanting a high-quality home with holiday let potential, or anyone looking for a private country residence with genuine character and a strong connection to the surrounding landscape.

Villa with garden and terrace Plymouth (United Kingdom)
For a family wanting substantial accommodation without sacrificing the convenience of city living, Whitchurch represents an increasingly unusual proposition. Standing on Seymour Road in the heart of Mannamead, this magnificent Grade II Listed Victorian villa offers approximately 5,403 sq ft of accommodation, mature south-facing gardens and a degree of independence and flexibility that few conventional family homes can provide. Its appeal is not simply one of scale. Whitchurch is particularly well suited to a household whose everyday life is centred around Plymouth: children attending nearby schools, professionals working at Derriford, the University or within the wider city, and families who want generous living space while remaining close to the places they use every day. The main residence provides five double bedrooms and extensive reception accommodation, while an entirely self-contained two-bedroom apartment at lower-ground level allows different generations of the same family to live together without necessarily living on top of one another. That combination of space, independence and convenience is perhaps what defines Whitchurch most clearly. Inside The scale of the house becomes apparent as soon as you step inside. Generous ceiling heights, tall sash windows and a wealth of period detail give the principal rooms the proportions expected of a Victorian villa of this calibre. Moulded cornicing, picture rails, panelled doors and an impressive staircase with turned balustrades and a mahogany handrail preserve much of the architectural character of the original house. The ground floor provides a succession of formal and informal reception spaces, allowing family life to spread naturally throughout the property rather than concentrating everything into one room. The principal reception rooms enjoy a southerly aspect over the gardens, with French doors helping to connect the interior with the outside. The dining room leads through to the orangery, creating another bright living and entertaining space overlooking the landscaped grounds. A separate snug provides somewhere more informal, while the study gives the house valuable dedicated workspace for anyone working from home. At the centre of everyday family life is the exceptional kitchen and breakfast room, extending to approximately 33 feet. Arranged around a substantial central island, it has the proportions to accommodate cooking, dining and everyday gathering within the same space. Extensive cabinetry, work surfaces and integrated appliances are complemented by a separate utility area, helping the kitchen function particularly well for a larger household. The Bedrooms The upper floor is arranged around five double bedrooms. The master bedroom is a particularly impressive suite, enjoying a south-facing outlook together with its own dressing room and en-suite bathroom. A second guest suite is positioned separately and also benefits from its own en-suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe, making it particularly useful for visiting family or older children wanting additional privacy. The remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom, creating an arrangement that works comfortably for a substantial family without compromising bedroom sizes. The Lower Ground Floor For many buyers, the lower-ground floor may prove to be one of the most important parts of Whitchurch. Rather than simply providing ancillary rooms, this level incorporates a substantial self-contained two-bedroom apartment with its own independent entrance from the driveway. The accommodation includes its own kitchen and dining space, sitting area, two double bedrooms, bathroom facilities and additional flexible accommodation. It can therefore function genuinely independently from the main house. For a family with ageing parents, adult children returning home, relatives requiring their own space, an au pair or regular guests, the arrangement provides a degree of separation that would normally require the purchase of a second property. Equally importantly, it remains connected to the main residence, so the accommodation can be absorbed back into the house whenever circumstances change. Additional areas at lower-ground level provide valuable practical space including workshop, plant and boiler-room accommodation, storage and areas that have previously been used for office and gym purposes. Outside Whitchurch enjoys mature south-facing gardens which provide an attractive and private setting behind the house. Predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by established trees, shrubs and planting, the gardens have a maturity that would be difficult to recreate quickly and provide a reassuring degree of seclusion despite the property’s convenient city location. A raised terrace adjoining the house creates a natural area for outdoor dining and entertaining, with the principal living accommodation overlooking the gardens beyond. Pedestrian access is available from Seymour Road, while vehicular access is taken separately from Seymour Drive. Here, the private driveway provides off-road parking for approximately four to five vehicles, a particularly useful feature for a substantial family home in this part of Plymouth. The Coach House Within the original wider grounds of Whitchurch is a separate detached three-bedroom Coach House. The Coach House is held on its own title and does not form part of the sale of Whitchurch at the advertised guide price. It may, however, be available to a purchaser of the main residence by separate negotiation should additional accommodation be required. Its proximity to Whitchurch could be particularly attractive to families looking for further independent accommodation for parents, adult children or relatives while still allowing each household its own front door. Further information is available from the selling agents on request. The Area Beyond the practical advantages of the location, Plymouth also offers an enviable lifestyle, with the coast, countryside and city all within easy reach. The historic Barbican and Sutton Harbour provide a lively mix of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and galleries, while Royal William Yard has become one of the city’s most popular waterfront destinations, combining dining, leisure and waterside living within an impressive collection of historic buildings. For those who enjoy sport and fitness, there are a number of well-regarded leisure and golf facilities across the city and surrounding area, including Nuffield Health at Derriford, Boringdon Park Golf Club and, just across the Tamar, China Fleet Country Club. St Mellion is also within comfortable driving distance and is well known for its championship golf and leisure facilities. One of Plymouth’s great advantages is its proximity to both the coast and open countryside. Whitsand Bay, Kingsand and Cawsand are all readily accessible for beaches, coastal walks and watersports, while Dartmoor lies to the north of the city, offering miles of walking, cycling and dramatic open landscape. This also makes Plymouth an excellent base from which to explore the wider South West, with the South Hams, Cornwall and the Devon coast all within easy reach. For buyers wanting the space and character of a substantial period home without giving up access to good restaurants, leisure facilities, the waterfront and the outdoors, it is a particularly appealing balance.

Currently a local farmer runs sheep in the paddocks, taking responsibility for maintenance of the land. Sellers Insight: ‘Chasty has been a great base for hiking and other outdoor activities, due to its location between Dartmoor and the North Cornish coast. We enjoy the rural location, with its far-reaching views, but also appreciate the easy access to amenities such as the local shops, Waitrose and the leisure centre in Holsworthy. The well-proportioned rooms and ample storage have been ideal for entertaining visiting family and friends.’ AGENTS NOTE The property, without including the barn and extra land, is currently being marketed for £850,000.

House with garden and terrace Boscastle (United Kingdom)
THE OLD FARMHOUSE The Old Farmhouse is the original home at Hillsborough and offers a rare blend of period character, generous proportions and a remarkable coastal setting. This Grade II listed Cornish stone cottage occupies a south facing position and enjoys a wonderfully balanced layout across two floors, with rooms that feel both welcoming and practical for everyday life. Traditional features run throughout, including original slate flagstone flooring, exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace, giving the house a strong sense of heritage and warmth. At the heart of the home, the kitchen and breakfast room combines everyday function with a striking outlook, opening the house to far reaching views of the sea and coastline. A separate dining room adds to the sense of occasion, while two reception rooms provide flexibility for family life, entertaining or quieter retreat. One of these rooms opens through glazed doors to the garden, creating an easy connection between inside and out. A utility room adds useful support space, and there is further versatility on the ground floor for those seeking the option of an additional bedroom. On the first floor, four spacious bedrooms continue the feeling of comfort and proportion, with one enjoying particularly attractive sea views. A family bathroom serves the bedroom accommodation, while the overall arrangement allows the house to suit both permanent living and extended family occupation with ease. The outside space is a major part of the appeal, with the farmhouse enjoying a south facing front garden and a wonderfully open relationship with its coastal surroundings. Access is from the western side via a shared approach with The Hayloft, where there is generous parking for both properties together with a garage and a utility room to the rear. To the rear, a large, enclosed lawn has been carefully maintained and provides an excellent setting for outdoor dining, family use or simply enjoying the outlook. Two separate sea facing patio areas create distinct places to sit and take in the views, one reached from the kitchen and breakfast room and the other from the living room. Together they give the house a strong sense of privacy, shelter and connection to the landscape, with the ocean and coastline providing an ever-changing backdrop. Services: Mains Electricity and Water. Oil Fired Central Heating. Private Drainage. THE HAYLOFT The Hayloft is a beautifully finished detached barn conversion, recently converted to a high standard and designed to make the most of its exceptional position. The accommodation is arranged in reverse style, allowing the principal living space to fully enjoy the sea and countryside views, and giving the home a bright, open and uplifting feel throughout. The first floor is especially impressive, with a vaulted open plan living room extending the full length of the building. This is a space with real impact, combining scale, character and comfort in a way that suits both everyday living and entertaining. A log burner with an attractive brick surround provides a natural division between the kitchen and dining area and the sitting area, helping each part of the room feel connected yet distinct. The overall effect is one of warmth, openness and effortless flow. On the ground floor, the sleeping accommodation is well arranged and generous in scale, comprising two double bedrooms, one with its own ensuite, together with a twin bedroom and a family bathroom. The layout gives the property a practical versatility for family occupation, guests or holiday use, while the overall standard of presentation ensures the house feels ready to enjoy from the outset. The Hayloft is approached via a shared drive with parking for several vehicles, giving both convenience and a strong sense of arrival. To the rear, a sunny patio provides an ideal space for outdoor dining or relaxed afternoons in the sun, with the setting making full use of the natural shelter and orientation. Beyond this, a private enclosed lawned garden extends the lifestyle appeal of the property and frames the far-reaching outlook beautifully. From here, the views take in the ocean, the rugged Cornish coastline and the surrounding countryside in a way that feels both open and peaceful. The outside space complements the internal layout particularly well, creating a home that is as enjoyable outdoors as it is within. Services: Mains Electricity and Water. Oil Fired Central Heating. Private drainage. THE BOATSHED The Boatshed has been sympathetically converted from a former barn to create a self-contained studio of real character and quality. Set apart from the main farmhouse, it enjoys a greater sense of independence while still benefiting from the wider appeal of the setting. The interior is arranged as an open plan living space, with the kitchen, sitting area and bedroom space brought together in a way that feels calm, practical and surprisingly spacious. Exposed beams add warmth and texture, while floor to ceiling glazing draws in the landscape and gives the studio a strong visual connection to the sea and countryside beyond. The overall finish is of a high standard, with the design allowing the setting to take centre stage. It is a space that feels considered and atmospheric, equally suited to peaceful personal use or welcoming guests in comfort. The Boatshed is approached via its own private driveway, giving it a distinct sense of separation from the other buildings. Separate parking adds to this independence, while a footpath leads to the property itself. To the rear, an elevated terrace makes the most of the dramatic outlook, with wide reaching views across the Cornish countryside to the sea. A coastal inspired patio garden provides an attractive and manageable outdoor space that sits naturally within its surroundings. The result is a setting that feels private, scenic and deeply connected to the landscape. Services: Mains Electricity and Water. Electric Central Heating. Private Drainage. Seller's Insight Standing at the kitchen sink watching a peregrine falcon circling looking for prey you feel as though you are a million miles away from the real world yet civilisation is right next door. We love the fact that there’s a different scene from every window and when our neighbour brings his sheep to the fields you also get free entertainment. Boscastle feels like a link to the past with its centuries’ old customs house (now the Cobweb Inn) and Elizabethan harbour wall. In summer watching dogs play in the river and children diving and swimming in the harbour it feels like an excerpt from a Rosamund Pilcher book. In the winter it’s more reminiscent of Daphne Du Maurier. Boscastle is also one of the friendliest villages in the country and people are happy to help you if they possibly can; one word of advice – the landlord of the Cobweb Inn knows anyone and everyone and is the first port of call for advice.

Formerly the village school, the building has been sympathetically converted into four individual cottages, each retaining the architectural strength and character of the original Victorian design while offering comfortable and well presented accommodation suited to modern living. Enjoying a remarkable position beneath the historic St. Gennys parish church, The Old School House is set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Heritage Coast, with National Trust land nearby. Framed by unspoilt countryside and distant sea views, the setting offers a rare sense of seclusion, character and timeless coastal charm. The setting is a significant part of the appeal. Approached by a private driveway, the property opens into mature grounds extending to approximately 0.83 acres, with generous parking and an attractive detached garage store.

Francis is especially rich in character, with an open plan living space featuring slate flag flooring, a granite fireplace and patio doors that draw the scenery into the room. The principal bedroom and bathroom are on the first floor, with a further bedroom on the second floor, creating an appealing and versatile arrangement for guests. Lanes has a similarly attractive relationship with the outside space, opening directly from the terrace into an open plan living area with slate flagged floors, a granite fireplace and expansive glazing that frames the coastal outlook particularly well. Arranged over three floors, the cottage currently provides accommodation for five guests, with a principal bedroom and bathroom on the first floor and two further bedrooms above. Outside, the sense of space and lifestyle appeal continues. The gardens provide room to relax, entertain and enjoy the setting in different ways throughout the day, while the recently constructed garage store, finished beneath a natural slate roof, adds further practicality. With French doors opening onto a veranda and sun deck overlooking the grounds, it also offers a wonderful place from which to appreciate the calm surroundings and evening light. Altogether, The Old School House is a distinctive and memorable property that combines period charm, flexibility and proven lifestyle appeal in an exceptional coastal setting.
