THE PROPERTY

A much-loved family home, Summer Thyme is a spacious four-bedroom property enjoying views of the sea and coastline towards Stepper Point. The property would now benefit from some modernisation but offers generous open plan living accommodation with a light filled sunroom linking the sitting room and kitchen. Light and bright, the whole living space opens out to a patio and raised deck that overlooks the generous lawned garden below - providing the perfect place for alfresco dining. Summer Thyme enjoys plenty of outside space, with a well-stocked garden, private off-road parking for two vehicles, and a substantial subterranean garage.

LOCATION

Polzeath is a favoured holiday and residential location on the North Cornwall coast, with a vast expanse of sand, safe bathing and surfing and RNLI Lifeguard cover from Easter to October. The immediate area also offers wonderful walking country over National Trust land with superb coastal scenery.  Nearby at Rock and Daymer Bay conditions are ideal for water sports as diverse as sailing, water skiing, canoeing and windsurfing, and the renowned St Enodoc Golf Club and The Point at Polzeath both offer excellent 18-hole courses. Polzeath has a number of good places to eat and drink, all within walking distance, including The Waterfront, The Oystercatcher, Surfside and TJ’s. The St Moritz Hotel and The Point Golf and Leisure Club are also just a short walk inland. Locally there are also a wealth of excellent restaurants and pubs including The Mariners Pub, The Dining Room and Fourboys in Rock, Nathan Outlaw in Port Isaac, Rick Stein’s Seafood Restaurant and Paul Ainsworth’s No. 6 in Padstow. The ferry and water taxi in Rock make travelling to Padstow enjoyable and easy. Most everyday shopping requirements can be met within the village or at nearby Rock, but the market town of Wadebridge is only about seven miles distant with larger supermarkets, a cinema and a wide range of independent shops.
