Description

This is modern coastal living at its finest, a home that combines generous proportions and exceptional versatility with the luxury of having the beach, coastal walks and village life right on your doorstep.

The accommodation is wonderfully flexible and perfectly suited to both family life and those looking to enjoy a more relaxed chapter by the coast. The ground floor centres around a fabulous kitchen and dining room, a bright and sociable space with two sets of sliding doors opening onto the front terrace. Also on this level is a generous bedroom suite, together with a study or further bedroom and shower room.

Upstairs, a beautiful galleried landing leads to a stunning lounge with doors opening onto a balcony, where the sea views provide a wonderful backdrop. The master bedroom suite is truly special, again opening onto the balcony and enjoying lovely sea views, while there is a further ensuite bedroom, another double bedroom and a family bathroom.

Outside, the property is equally easy to enjoy. A block-paved driveway provides plenty of parking and leads to the garage, while the level plot has lawned gardens to both front and rear, together with a rear patio, creating plenty of space for outdoor dining, relaxing and entertaining.

And then there is the lifestyle. Praa Sands is one of Cornwall’s sought-after coastal locations, centred around its beautiful mile-long stretch of white sand, backed by sheltering dunes. The beach is close enough to become part of everyday life, whether that means an early morning stroll, an afternoon in the sand or an evening walk along the shoreline watching the surfers and the sunset.

About Christophers, Helston

Industry affiliations:Industry affiliation logo 0Industry affiliation logo 1Industry affiliation logo 2

Christophers Estate Agents is an independent estate agency that was started with a view of providing "pure traditional estate agency".

The company was established in 2002 and has an experienced team who for many years have dealt with property in this district.

We are indeed privileged to work in an area of such natural beauty. Helston is the gateway and commercial centre for the Lizard Peninsula and provides a range of national stores, Comprehensive School, College, Sports Centre with indoor swimming pool and a Cinema. The town is linked to the coast by the beautiful Penrose Estate which is also home to Cornwall's largest natural fresh water lake at Loe Pool.

To the west our area skirts around Mount's Bay and it encompasses a number of highly regarded villages and attractive areas of open countryside.

Flora Day is the most important day in the Helston calendar. It takes place at the beginning of May each year and although it's origins are lost in the mists of time it is believed to have been performed by the townsfolk for hundreds if not thousands of years. During the day four Furry dances take place the first one starting at 7.00 a.m. in the morning! Thousands of people throng the streets of this Ancient Market town to welcome in the Spring. The principal dance takes place at 12 noon with the gentleman in morning suits and top hats and the ladies wearing long colourful dresses with splendid hats.
