Accessible coastal living with high-spec comforts and direct coastal path access.
Panoramic uninterrupted views across the Hayle Estuary
Woodcote Cottage is a newly built, three-bedroom detached home set above the Hayle Estuary with sweeping panoramic river views. The reverse-level layout places the open-plan living and dining room on the upper floor, where floor-to-ceiling glazing opens onto a full-width balcony — an excellent spot to relax and watch tides and birdlife. The property’s high-spec fit includes air-source heating, air conditioning, remote-controlled blinds and an internal lift, making daily life comfortable and accessible.
Accommodation is arranged for convenience: two principal bedrooms have en suites and a third bedroom provides flexible use as a guest room or home office. A large 32ft garage, generous driveway and level lawned garden add practical space for parking, hobbies or storage. On the practical side the plot borders Woodland Trust-managed woodland and provides direct access to the South West Coast Path; Lelant train station is about 200 metres away for easy links to St Ives and beyond.
Buyers should note a few material points. Local classification and demographic data indicate an ageing rural neighbourhood — important if long-term rental or resale diversification is required. Council tax is described as expensive. Construction data lists solid brick walls with no confirmed insulation date; while the property benefits from an efficient air-source heat pump, buyers seeking full transparency should confirm insulation and acoustic specifications. Mobile signal is average.
Overall this property will suit downsizers or buyers seeking a low-flood, low-crime coastal retreat with high-spec, accessible living and excellent estuary views. It blends ready-to-live-in modern comfort with scope to check and upgrade fabric details for long-term efficiency and value retention.
