luxury houses for sale Saint John, 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.

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.

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.

Despite its peaceful and semi-rural setting, the property remains conveniently close to the vibrant city of Plymouth, where a wide range of amenities, restaurants, and transport connections can be found. This balance between countryside, coast, and city is increasingly rare, making the location particularly appealing to those seeking a lifestyle-driven move without isolation. The property also benefits from a range of eco-conscious features, including solar panels, air source heating, and enhanced insulation, contributing to improved efficiency and lower running costs.
