Description
26 Parc-an-Dillon Road is a well-proportioned and light-filled home, where the emphasis has been placed on modern living while retaining a sense of space and practicality.  The heart of the house is the superb extended kitchen and dining room, finished with granite worktops and Amtico flooring that runs seamlessly wall to wall, ideal for future kitchen reconfiguration if desired.  Double doors open directly onto the fully enclosed rear garden, creating an excellent flow for everyday living and entertaining.

The generous living room features a woodburning stove and engineered oak hardwood flooring.  From here there are wonderful views encompassing the Nare Head with Gull Rock, Dodman Point and on clear days Rame Head, marking the eastern end of Cornwall’s south coast.  On still nights the light from the Eddystone Lighthouse can be seen.

Also on the ground floor are two comfortable double bedrooms providing excellent flexibility for family living, guests, or home working, alongside a well-appointed bathroom.

Upstairs the dormer layout creates two further double bedrooms, one particularly spacious, including fitted wardrobes and access to storage in the eaves.  Both enjoy an exceptional eastern aspect with panoramic sea views extending round to Pendower and Carne beaches.  A bathroom serves the first floor, completing the accommodation.

Throughout the home the current owners have invested significantly in high-quality improvements, including full rewiring and replumbing, a new hot water boiler and energy-efficient Rointe radiators throughout, engineered oak flooring in the living room and sun lounge and upgraded double glazing.

Outside
Externally the property continues to impress.  Set back from the road by a good-sized front garden, it is mainly laid to lawn with mature hedging, creating an inviting and well-screened approach.  To the front, the driveway provides parking for up to four vehicles in addition to the single garage.  The garage benefits from a recent new roof and joists.

The sunny rear garden is fully enclosed, backing directly onto the village cricket ground, which is designated as a village green and cannot be developed.  A half-height gate enables access to the field and there is an additional elevated view over the cricket ground.  A garden shed, an attached covered seating area, mature flower beds, an apple tree, climbers on the fencing and a lawned area complete the picture.

Summary
26 Parc-an-Dillon Road is a well-positioned and beautifully maintained coastal home offering flexible accommodation, exceptional views and a peaceful village setting.  With its recent extension, high-quality upgrades and protected outlooks both front and rear, this is a rare opportunity to secure a standout property in one of the area’s most desirable locations.
