Description
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING DETACHED FAMILY HOME ON ARGUABLY THE BEST PLOT ON THE STREET. EXTENSIVELY IMPROVED AND EXTENDED, OFFERING VAST ACCOMMODATION WITH UP TO 6 BEDROOMS, 3 RECEPTIONS, AND ANNEX POTENTIAL. SHOW-STOPPING OPEN-PLAN LOUNGE/DINER/KITCHEN. PARKING FOR 5+ AND LARGE, MATURE GARDENS BACKING ONTO WOODLAND – SIMPLY INCREDIBLE!
Tucked away at the head of a quiet cul-de-sac and backing directly onto the beautiful woodland of Carnanton Woods, 13 Challis Avenue is without question one of the finest examples of a modern family home in the area. This fully detached property has been extensively extended in both 2014 and 2021 and continuously upgraded over the last decade, creating a spacious, flexible, and perfectly balanced home that truly has it all. Occupying arguably the best plot on the street, with large mature gardens and excellent parking, it is also the only detached home on Challis Avenue, giving it a rare and enviable position.
At the heart of the property lies a spectacular 7m x 7m open plan family room, added in 2021 as part of a major extension. This outstanding space incorporates living, dining and kitchen areas in one seamless design, all finished to an exceptional standard. The kitchen features a stylish sage green design with a central island, Quartz worksurfaces and integrated appliances including twin Neff hide-and-slide ovens and a downdraft induction hob. A feature sky lantern, Velux windows, patio doors, and a picture window flood the room with natural light, while woodland and garden views enhance its sense of tranquillity. The room also benefits from a modern log burner and luxury LVT flooring, making it a truly showpiece family hub.
Elsewhere on the ground floor, the welcoming entrance hall is finished with oak and glass staircase detailing and bespoke Sharps understairs storage, leading to a generous front living room complete with log burner and green outlook. A further section of the ground floor has been cleverly designed to offer annex potential with minimal alteration, comprising two double bedrooms, a beautifully refitted double shower suite and a utility room. One of the bedrooms has been constructed with upgraded sound insulation, making it equally suited as a music room, study, or additional reception space.
Upstairs, a wonderful light-filled landing leads to four double bedrooms and a brand-new family bathroom (2025) featuring a triple walk-in shower, striking tiling and on-trend gold fittings. The home benefits throughout from replacement UPVC double glazing and oil-fired central heating via an upgraded Worcester boiler installed in 2021. The quality and care invested in every detail is clear, with meticulous improvements far exceeding the norm.
Externally, the property continues to impress. A large, gated driveway provides secure parking for five or more vehicles, while to the rear lies a beautifully landscaped garden of exceptional size, believed to be one and a half plots in width. Designed for both play and relaxation, it is mainly laid to lawn with mature borders, hedges, and fencing, complemented by two suntrap patio areas facing south and west. A full-size detached storage garage (not car accessible) with electric roller door, additional storage shed, and a charming mature apple tree complete with swing make this garden both practical and enchanting.
The setting is equally appealing. St Mawgan is a picture-postcard village, just a short drive from both Newquay and the golden sands of Mawgan Porth. Centred around a traditional green with a stream, popular pub, village shop/post office, 13th-century church and one of the most sought-after primary schools in the area, the village offers a rare blend of beauty, community, and convenience.
With its combination of location, scale, style and flexibility, 13 Challis Avenue represents a unique opportunity to acquire what is quite simply a dream forever family home.
