Situation With beautiful creeks, fabulous sailing waters and waterside walks, the Carrick Roads is an estuary in the south of Cornwall between Falmouth and Truro. Lying mid-way along the western side of the estuary, the Greatwood area offers very tranquil rural peace, but is only a mile or so from the popular village of Mylor Bridge and is not far from the bustling harbourside town of Falmouth. Chy-an-Mor offers immediate access to some of the best day-sailing waters in the British Isles. An ever-changing marine viewing gallery, in the winter Falmouth Working Boats dredge oysters under sail, while the summer sees the villages of the estuary holding colourful regattas. Falmouth Yacht Marina, less than 5 miles away, offers comprehensive services of the highest standard, whilst nearer at hand there are two excellent boat yards at Mylor Creek and another at Flushing. Mylor Harbour with its own moorings also has an excellent restaurant and cafe, chandlery and watersports centre. The vendor has a deepwater mooring on license at the entrance to Mylor Creek. There are also moorings at nearby Restronguet Creek. The Pandora Inn, a lovely thatched pub overlooking the water and serving seafood, much loved by locals and visitors alike, is a short walk round to Restronguet Creek. With a good choice of high street and boutique shops along with private and state schooling and the county hospital, Truro is ten miles away and is the main administrative centre for Cornwall. The mainline rail link sleeper service to London Paddington makes travel easy, while Cornwall Airport provides daily flights to London Gatwick and other UK and international destinations.

Chy-an-Mor is an interesting bungalow set in a substantial, unique and private plot, with direct water access, ownership of the foreshore to mean low water and surrounded in stunning park-like gardens of around 2.5 acres. With the most incredible views across the Carrick Roads towards St Just in Roseland and St Mawes, the bungalow has been renovated and extended over time.

The sheltered entrance leads into the open plan living/dining room which has a vaulted ceiling to the rear. The living area to the front has floor-to-ceiling windows to capture and take full advantage of the stunning views over the Carrick Roads. The kitchen and hardwood conservatory are also to the front of the property, again enjoy incredible sea views.

There is a gated private slipway with a winch leading down to the private beach, which comprises around 400 ft of water frontage and extends to mean low water. A sun-trap lawn to the south side has a well stocked goldfish pond. The park-like enclosed gardens to the north contain many fine trees and specimen shrubs. The productive vegetable patch has five raised beds, a fruit cage, a restored brick greenhouse and a glass greenhouse and produces an array of fruit and vegetables from raspberries, blackcurrants to beetroot and figs.
