Occupying an idyllic valley setting just half a mile from Port Navas Creek and the sheltered sailing waters of the Helford River, a detached former mill house, providing attractively presented and highly versatile accommodation, suitable as a large family home with ancillary accommodation providing the potential to generate an income, or for a dependent relative to live privately within a self-contained annexe. Set within delightful, private gardens and grounds of approximately 2 acres, with detached office and garage block with historic planning permission for conversion to a 3-storey annexe.
THE LOCATION
Bosanath Valley lies immediately to the north of Anna Maria and Port Navas Creek, just over one mile from the centre of the well served village of Mawnan Smith, whose excellent day-to-day amenities include a village store, thatched public house and a highly regarded county primary school. The village of Constantine is approximately three miles distant and is reached via the yachting haven of Port Navas, with sheltered sailing waters leading directly onto the beautiful Helford River and sea beyond. Helford Passage, home of the Ferry Boat Inn, is an approximate ten minute drive away; before which are the leisure facilities and golf course at Budock Vean, and a short distance after, the renowned National Trust gardens at Trebah and Glendurgan. The outskirts of the port of Falmouth is approximately five miles distant and the cathedral city of Truro, the county's administrative, retailing, health and educational centre is an approximate thirty/thirty five minute drive away, from which there is a regular main-line rail link to London Paddington.
THE PROPERTY
'Bosanath Mill' meaning peaceful in Cornish and certainly living up to it's name, is a most attractive, detached and highly individual home with much charm and character, occupying an idyllic setting within its own, surrounding, highly private grounds, bordering unspoilt countryside and within approximately half a mile of Port Navas Creek.
Nestled away, the property is reached via a sweeping driveway, at the head of which, a large parking/turning area leads to the accommodation. On the roadside, there is a detached block-built double garage with workshop below and historic planning consent for conversion to a three storey annexe - to be used for purposes incidental to the enjoyment of 'Bosanath Mill' - Cornwall Council application number: PA15/04932.
The accommodation is beautifully presented throughout and extremely versatile as either a large five-bedroom family home or as two properties, following the re-installation of a second kitchen in the annexe - ideal for those seeking a source of letting income or a two family home'.
The grounds are another particular feature, comprising lawned areas, mature shrub borders, slate pathways and patios, a covered veranda and a fast flowing stream which runs the entire length of the western boundary. An extensive, characterful, and extremely adaptable home, in an unspoilt setting in one of south Cornwall's most sought-after areas.
