Daffy-Down-Dilly Description

Only a few miles from the beautiful sandy beaches on either side of the Camel Estuary, this light and spacious, double glazed detached house with a large garden is set on the outskirts of the old market town of Wadebridge with views of the surrounding countryside. Ideally situated with easy access to the town amenities half a mile away and just a ten minute walk downhill to the Camel Trail which runs alongside the scenic Camel Estuary towards Padstow.

Entered from the gated tarmac driveway, a couple of railed steps lead down to the covered porch where the front door opens into a central hallway with an adjacent cloakroom W.C. and hand basin. To one side a pleasant sitting room has comfortable seating arranged before an electric log effect fire and there is a dining room at the rear with views of the garden and countryside beyond.

On the opposite side of the hall, a fully fitted kitchen has a pantry cupboard and an oil fired rayburn supplemented by an electric cooker, and a glazed door continues out to a small breakfast room which catches the morning sun.

Upstairs are two bedrooms each with a handbasin and rugs on the natural wood floor, a twin bedded room overlooks the front garden and a double bedroom has far reaching views over the unspoilt fields and farmland at the rear. A bathroom W.C. with hand basin and shower over the bath completes the accommodation. The owner reserves one first floor room as a store. From the breakfast room, six railed steps lead down to the mature rear garden with a large lawn and sheltered patio area; when the driveway is gated the garden is enclosed.

A newly opened family restaurant and supermarket are half a mile up the hill and a pedestrianised shopping centre with a good selection of shops, pubs and restaurants is a 10 minute walk down the hill as are a cinema, recreational park and bicycle hire shop to explore the Camel Trail west to Padstow or east to Bodmin. There is a leisure centre with swimming pool close by, riding stables, several golf courses, and a local bus service operates to the surrounding towns and villages.

There is a wide choice of glorious sandy beaches including Polzeath, Rock, Trevone and Harlyn all within a 20 minute drive and the picturesque fishing harbours at Padstow and Port Isaac are 7 miles respectively by road. The Royal Cornwall Showground is also just a 10 minute walk from the property.
