SITUATIONRestronguet Point, just five miles south of Truro is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is a slender peninsula which fronts tidal Restronguet Creek to the west and, to the east, the magnificent sailing waters of the Fal Estuary (known as the Carrick Roads), widely regarded amongst the finest and safest for day sailing in the United Kingdom. Accessed by one no-through lane, ‘The Point’ as it is known locally, is home to some of the most desirable and valuable private residences in the county, particularly those with direct waterfrontage.

Restronguet Point has been highlighted in the regional press as the third most expensive road in which to live in the south west and there is justification to expect Restronguet Point to be ranked even higher in the near future as buyers are just starting to realise how very few locations in the entirety of Cornwall offer the exceptional combination of superb access to the cathedral city of Truro and the Port of Falmouth, tranquillity and absence of

traffic, wonderful unspoilt water views, direct waterfrontage and the opportunity to keep a boat.

In far more developed and much busier locations such as the Sandbanks Peninsula, one pays a very considerable price for such attributes; maybe Restronguet Point has remained something of a ‘secret’ for too long and is now becoming recognised by buyers from the national and international arena as a location with significant logical ‘upside’ for the future.

This is, without question, one of the most conveniently placed, prestigious and beautiful locations in Cornwall and will be of huge appeal to those with keen sailing interests and who covet an ever changing view over a tidal creek from an elevated position.

COMMUNICATIONSThe cathedral city of Truro is the main commercial, administrative, legal and retailing centre for Cornwall and offers excellent state

and private schooling facilities at junior and secondary level. There is a mainline rail link to London Paddington (approximately 4½ hours) and Newquay Airport at St Mawgan offers regular flights to London Gatwick (flight time about 1 hour). There are 18-hole golf courses at Truro, Falmouth and on the nearby Killiow Country Estate. The famous National Trust gardens at Trelissick are on the edge of the village of Feock beside the upper reaches of the Fal Estuary and the King Harry passenger and car ferry provides easy and rapid access onto the Roseland Peninsula and St Mawes.

By boat the beautiful thatched Pandora Inn is easily accessed on the other side of Restronguet Creek, Mylor yacht harbour and Mylor Creek are only a short distance away and indeed Falmouth is within a 10 minute boat ride where one is able to moor a boat and go shopping. The Fal Estuary and its tributaries together with the Percuil River and Helford River are all easily explored by boat.
