IntroductionTrewarren is aptly named 'homestead of the warren' in Cornish. Its location appeals to a wide sector of the market, either as a permanent home or holiday retreat. Its exclusive yet private and convenient position in the village is second to none and will appeal to those yearning for serenity, sophisticated dining, and seaside charm. This most attractive property was newly built in the early 1990’s and has very recently undergone a major, one and a quarter million-pound restoration including an architectural showpiece wrap around balcony. Located within a 50-yard walk to Tavern Beach and Hotel Tresanton, compared to many of the properties found on the waterfront, Trewarren has the rarity of vehicular access to ample parking facilities including a double garage. A pleasant, relatively level 350-yard stroll along the enchanting waterfront are the local shops, pubs and restaurants dispersed around the harbourside where the pedestrian ferries come and go.
Trewarren is a hidden gem! Its unassuming approach vanishes upon entry through the automatic gates into beautiful mature and private gardens which have been professionally landscaped for maximum enjoyment of the Cornish sunshine and to absorb the splendid views. The gardens offer peace and tranquillity and have been designed with ease of maintenance in mind. Mere photography does not do justice to the quality and design of this stunning house where only by viewing internally can one fully capture the distinctive comforts and perfect surroundings this fine coastal home provides.
The ViewsFacing a few degrees off due south, the panoramic views from the property and its gardens are magnificent. They encompass the fishing and yacht moorings on the estuary on the Percuil River and St Mawes Harbour, Tavern Beach, the beautiful National Trust owned St Anthony Headland, St Mawes Castle, Falmouth Bay and beyond to the Lizard Peninsula (the UK's most southerly point) as well as miles of open sea. On clearer days it is possible to see over 20 miles across the sea. The bay and harbour are a hive of marine activity all year round. The views are forever changing from sailing races, visiting cruise liners and super yachts to seals, basking sharks and dolphins.
Accommodation in BriefInitial Impressions are Lasting Impressions: Portrayed upon entering the impressive reception hall, with its floating oak and glass galleried staircase, initial impressions exhibit Trewarren’s exceptional and tasteful specifications.
Impressive Lounge: This showpiece room is spacious and light and airy created from the floor to ceiling windows which enhance the exceptional views. French Doors bring the outside within and open onto the recently installed wrap around balcony and outstanding principal sun terrace whilst its attractive open fireplace adds to the ambience particularly on winter evenings
Bespoke Kitchen and Dining Room: The kitchen is hand made locally by The Rozen Workshop of Helston, with modern Miele appliances including warming drawer, wine cooler, fridge freezer with ice dispenser and a Quooker boiling water tap. For alfresco dining and barbeques, a walkway balcony connects from the kitchen to the principal sun terrace. Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen is the dining room. Floor to ceiling French doors on to the wrap around balcony frame unforgettable and captivating views over the sea, countryside and harbour.
Bedrooms and Bathrooms: The principal bedroom has a stylish luxury en-suite bathroom and features two sets of French doors, one set facing east, the other facing south, both connecting to the wrap around balcony and capture the inspiring views.

All the bath and shower rooms have underfloor heating.
Games and Chill out Room: Leading from the laundry room, the current owners have created a ‘games and chill out’ room which has a multi-purpose of being a double garage. This space has been decorated and lit effectively, with a Sonos sound system to achieve a relaxed ‘club’ vibe particularly appealing to the ‘young at heart’!
Landscaped Gardens: Surrounded by lawns, terracing, and a sunken garden. It’s a private oasis that offers space and privacy to relax.
