Set within the peaceful hamlet of Trehan, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), this charming character cottage enjoys beautiful countryside and estuary views, yet offers convenient access to the A38.
Having been in the same ownership for over 25 years, properties like this rarely come to market. A perfect home for those who appreciate rural living, with scenic walks on the doorstep and no onward chain, it offers a wonderful opportunity to embrace the Cornish lifestyle.
Location:
In a glorious rural setting within the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the charming hamlet of Trehan lies just a mile from the waterside communities of Forder and Antony Passage, both set along the broad tidal estuary of the River Lynher. This scenic waterway, often dotted with pleasure craft, leads to Plymouth Sound just over four miles away by boat, while the River Tamar stretches navigably for around ten miles upstream. With a sunny south and west aspect, the property enjoys far-reaching views over the unspoilt countryside of the Lynher Valley, the sheltered estuary waters, and the rolling hinterland of the Rame Peninsula beyond.
Forder itself is a designated Conservation Area, tucked at the head of a tidal creek, with moorings available by application to the Forder Community and Conservation Association. Further sailing opportunities can be found at the yacht clubs of Saltash and Cargreen, both offering sheltered deep-water moorings. Surrounded by wooded valleys, the unspoilt hamlets of Trehan and Forder benefit from immediate access to open countryside, including the Churchtown Farm Nature Reserve and its extensive network of footpaths. For leisure, golf can be enjoyed at the renowned St Mellion International Resort or the China Fleet Country Club.
Saltash, with its busy town centre, mainline railway station (London Paddington in around 3 hours), and a Waitrose supermarket on the northern outskirts, lies within easy reach. The A38 provides swift connections west to Truro and east towards Plymouth and Exeter. Meanwhile, Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor are just a short drive away, offering limitless outdoor adventure. Rich in wildlife and natural beauty, this sought-after location is a haven for sailing, walking, and nature enthusiasts alike.
