Offering glorious sea views from all principle rooms, the house benefits from large windows throughout, showcasing stunning panoramas to the south and west across Plymouth Sound and the Channel to Gorran Haven near Mevagissey and, on a very clear day, as far as the Lizard in Cornwall! The accommodation is beautifully presented in a modern yet comfortable style, and the gardens are a haven for garden birds and other wildlife, while offering numerous options for al fresco entertaining or simply relaxing at different times of the day and year.

The property is approached from Heybrook Drive over a small portion of the neighbouring house's driveway, for which Charolais enjoys a Right of Way. There is a balconied parking area for up to three vehicles and a gate leads to a pathway and steps down to a private paved courtyard which is surrounded by raised beds which are stocked with a wide variety of plants including verbena, cyclamen, hebe and numerous spring bulbs, providing food for wildlife and a most pleasant seating area in which to enjoy the morning sun. A paved path continues around the northern side of the house, leading to a useful bin storage area and greenhouse.
From the entrance courtyard, steps lead down around the southern side to the rear gardens. Divided into several distinct zones, each with its own unique character and feel, the gardens are private and secure, and provide year-round interest with a wide variety of wildlife-friendly plants including clematis, rosemary, hellebores, daffodils, agapanthus, roses and buddleia. The gardens have all been designed to take advantage of the beautiful vistas and to be as low-maintenance as possible, while still enjoying abundant verdure.
A paved patio with pergola and fire pit is approached first, with a spectacular clematis armandii covering the balustrade. A path continues along the rear of the house with a covered paved area outside bedroom 1 and steps leading down to the Scented Garden, which is mainly laid to lawn with mature hedged perimeters and enjoying many fragrant plants. Continuing along the pathway, there is another large paved patio bordered by lawn and further wildlife-friendly planting. Beneath this is a 500 gallon rainwater tank with a high-powered pump and hose allowing for easy, environmentally-friendly watering, and there is also a small shed, ideal for storing your garden tools. A pathway continues around to a useful storage area and access through a side door into the house.
