For sale: Property in Rock, Cornwall
A golden opportunity has arisen to own of one of Rock's architectural landmark houses.
Demand for property in the exclusive North Cornish village of Rock ? dubbed by some as 'Kensington-on-Sea' ? is stronger than ever. Good quality property in the celebrated north Cornwall trio of villages Rock, Trebetherwick and Polzeath, rarely appears on the market and rental cottages must be booked six or seven months in advance. Thus the rare opportunity to purchase one of Rock's most prestigious houses will appeal to a family who values its holiday time. Surrounded by some of the most beautiful beaches in the country, Medrose is a stunning blend of New England style architecture and local Cornish building materials. The property is situated halfway between the shops and the beach, within easy reach of boating, windsurfing, surfing, golfing, walking, first class restaurants and bars. 'It is very rare for a house of such quality, in such a location, to become available in Rock. The design and build quality of this house are exceptional and it has become a local landmark,' said Josephine Ashby of John Bray and Partners. 'The successful purchaser will be able to take possession of the house immediately.' The accommodation is spacious with a spectacular south facing drawing room, a large kitchen and dining room and a study. Up to 12 people can be accommodated comfortably in the five bedrooms and there are a good number of bathrooms. Outside there is a large sun deck and a double garage/boat store. Medrose is being offered through John Bray and Partners with a guide price of £1.5 million.
