Riverside

Riverside is a very special waterside home built on land reclaimed by Dutch engineers and seafarers in the 18th Century in the beautiful and historic village of Flushing. Very well furnished, this beautiful retreat has everything you could possibly wish for to make your holiday unforgettable.

The lobby just inside the front door is perfect for your coats, boots and shoes and this leads into a large hallway.  Off this is an open plan area incorporating kitchen, dining room and sitting room.  The contemporary white kitchen units along with the large windows and door openings all add to the illusion of light and space.

All the comforts you would expect are here – a fully fitted kitchen with built in appliances including dishwasher, microwave and a fan-assisted oven along with washing machine with separate tumble drier located in the airing cupboard.  A large oak table seats six people and leading off here is one of two sitting rooms complete with water views, a sofa and matching chairs.  This room also has a very efficient, cosy wood-burning stove for those colder winter stays.

The vaulted ceiling, skylights and doors on both sides of the second sitting room give lots of natural light and provides a comfortable place to enjoy the views from the inside of the property.  From the two plump sofas you can enjoy marvellous views over the Penryn River. The room has TV, well stocked book shelves and WiFi.

Finally, at ground floor level, is a handy white-tiled shower room with power shower, chrome accessories and full under floor heating.

Upstairs are two bedrooms at first floor level plus one loft bedroom.  Facing the street is a twin-bedded room while at the rear you will find a king sized master bedroom with a Juliet balcony with spectacular river views.  Additionally there is a small sitting area here plus a television. The family bathroom is on this floor with a deep, free-standing bath plus power shower plus under floor heating.

The loft-style master bedroom is a superb suite with twin-beds and a TV. The en-suite shower room has luxury fittings including a power shower and under floor heating. The river views from up here are wonderful.

Outside is a wonderful courtyard-style garden leading to a sea wall, west-facing, this is a great place to enjoy a glass of wine while watching the sun set.

A holiday in this property will be both memorable and relaxing although, for the more adventurous, plenty of sailing is possible in the estuary.   Just along the street is the ferry across to Falmouth where shops, restaurants and bars are plentiful within walking distance.

Riverside is a dog-friendly property and has the rare advantage in Flushing of its own parking space on the quayside.
