Description

Nestled amongst neighbouring prime waterside homes, Asgard has been in the loving and caring ownership of our clients’ family ever since the property was built. Once part of the gardens owned by the neighbouring property called Polvarth, our clients parents purchased the building plot from the then owners of Polvarth in 1977. A local reputable builder was commissioned to create their dream waterside home to their individual design and high specifications as seen today.

The property is a keen sailors and water enthusiasts dream and set in its own beautifully stocked yet manageable private surrounding gardens, which combine uninterrupted stunning panoramic views with the benefit of an easy sloping private pedestrian access on to the water’s edge. Equally, this rare opportunity is within walking distance of boatyards, beautiful riverside and coastal walks, beaches, pedestrian ferries, shops, art galleries, pubs, cafe´s and restaurants.

Whilst offering excellent family sized accommodation that has been lived in until recently, Asgard has obvious potential for enlargement or, as has happened to a number of properties in the village over the last few years, demolition and construction of a larger property, subject to the usual planning and other consents. Suited towards the retiring or family buyer looking for a permanent riverside home or holiday retreat which offers stunning river and countryside views, an internal viewing is unhesitatingly recommended.

The Views

Even in the height of summer, when St Mawes village is at its peak, turning the bend eastwards past Polvarth Point, a bespoke number of properties located on the river are sheltered from the prevailing south westerly wind and surprisingly enjoy peace and tranquillity, from birds singing to yacht masts clattering. The splendour of the views enjoyed from Asgard have to be experienced first-hand, as mere photography does not do them justice. Borrowing the beauty of the colourful gardens as if it were a picture frame the captivating views encompass the magic of the Percuil River, with its array of moorings and home to the young person's sailing schools. The river is tidal but deep, so always has water, even on the lowest of tides. The opposite side of the river is bordered by delightful part- wooded National Trust owned St Anthony Headland, views that will be there in perpetuity.

The Gardens (Plot Size: circa Quarter of an Acre)

At the front of the property is a forecourt and driveway for the parking of three to four vehicles. There is access either side of the property to the rear gardens of which are a major feature and attribute of the property. Offering an array of all year-round colour, the gardens are landscaped into specific zones to capture either the sunshine or the shade, all offering a private enjoyment space for peace and tranquillity or which maximise the inspirational river and countryside views. Located off the main sitting room is a featured sun terrace, ideal for alfresco entertainment and barbeques, which has a series of steps contouring past water features into the garden. Beneath the property are storage areas for boating regalia, kayaks, and tenders etc.

At the bottom of the gardens is a private gate leading to a path which has a private legal right of way to the foreshore of the river allowing easy access to boat moorings or to simply enjoy an early morning swim before breakfast.
