Exceptional Estate with Private Harbour on Cornwall’s Helford River

The main house unfolds across expansive open-plan rooms designed for both entertaining and family life. Four reception rooms capture the ever-changing light and river views through generous glazing, while a refined palette of finishes creates an atmosphere of timeless calm.

The principal suite spans an entire wing, complete with two dressing rooms and a vast bathroom. There are six further bedrooms and six additional bathrooms in the main residence, all thoughtfully appointed.

Designed for hosting, the detached boathouse offers flexible guest accommodation and includes its own courtyard garden, opening onto the quay. With a bunk room and two bathrooms, it functions equally well as a secondary home, games pavilion or creative retreat.

The kitchen, which forms the heart of the home, is fitted with bespoke cabinetry and top-of-the-range appliances, including a range cooker and American-style fridge freezer. A sense of quality continues throughout, from the Italian oak floors to the custom furnishings curated by RH. A Sonos system runs throughout the property, and smart TVs have been integrated into the reception and bedroom spaces. A discreet Plumis Automist sprinkler system adds an extra layer of safety.

Outdoors, a heated swimming pool lies on the grounds, with footpaths that wind down through private woodland to the water’s edge. The dock accommodates up to four boats, and the surrounding coastline is perfect for sailing, paddleboarding and wild swimming.

Just a short drive from the amenities of Falmouth and with direct rail links from nearby Truro to London Paddington, the property is ideally positioned for those seeking privacy and exclusivity without isolation; the beaches that line this part of Cornwall are among the most unspoilt in the country.
