Helford Passage property The Shieling is a wonderful opportunity to own a property in this most desirable location. The house sits in an elevated position with views through to the spectacular Helford River, renowned for its exceptional sailing waters and also made famous by Daphne Du Maurier s book Frenchman s Creek. The house stands proudly in the centre of its plot with ample garden front and rear and water views from both ground and first floor levels. The broad terrace provides access to the entrance which opens to a broad hallway leading through to a spacious sitting room. This generous room opens into a conservatory with French doors back out to the terrace making a very social space for entertaining. On the opposite side of the hall is a generous kitchen set to the rear as well as a convenient study. The dining room is nicely positioned to the front so that it enjoys views over the garden. The first floor landing is generous and has a great view out over the gardens to the river. The master bedroom benefits from a dressing room and ensuite, taking the complete western end of the house as well as a lovely view. There are two further generous bedrooms and a family bathroom, as well as a walk in wardrobe. The property could easily be updated and extended to really maximise its position with potential for a further bedroom over the garage. The front garden is beautiful, best enjoyed from the terrace, which works exceptionally well in conjunction with the conservatory when entertaining. The view is very attractive, framed by the shrubs and trees with further potential to improve this aspect. The gardens are beautiful in spring, planted with azalea, heather, pink camellias, a gorgeous magnolia tree and daffodils, providing an abundance of colour that combines with specimen shrubs and trees. A gate at the rear leads directly onto the Budock Vean Golf Course. The driveway runs along one side of the gardens providing easy access to the linked garage which also has ample storage for boats and cars.
