ACCOMMODATION SUMMARY

Thoughtfully extended and beautifully refitted by the current owners, this impressive four bedroom detached home on the popular Lovering Road development in Carclaze has been transformed . The owners have fitted a new kitchen and upgraded both bathrooms to a luxurious standard. Most notably, a substantial rear extension has opened up the ground floor into a generous, versatile living space that works wonderfully for family life and for entertaining. Every improvement has been made with care, quality and modern family living in mind. The result is a home that feels fresh and well considered throughout, and that is clear the moment you step inside.

The entrance hall sets the tone. It is generous in scale and welcoming in feel, with doors leading to the lounge, kitchen and ground floor WC. The lounge is a superb space and an impressive size, filled with light from a large bay window and centred on a feature fireplace. Double doors lead through to the extended dining room beyond, creating a flowing, open plan space that is the heart of the home. It is equally suited to relaxed family evenings, busy weekends with children and hosting friends. French doors from the dining room open straight onto the side patio, so summer entertaining is easy and inside and outside blend together. A practical utility room sits at the far end of the dining space, with neatly concealed storage and plumbing for white goods.

The extension gives the ground floor a flexibility that few homes offer. The space can easily be arranged to suit how you live, whether that means a home study, a craft or hobby room, a playroom, or a further reception area. This makes it ideal for growing families, people working from home, or anyone who needs a home that can change with them.

The kitchen is finished to a high standard, with a full range of fitted units and integrated appliances. There is also space for a table and chairs, so it works as well for the morning school run as for a leisurely Sunday breakfast. A ground floor WC with hand basin completes the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, the first floor has four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a spacious room with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room with WC, hand basin and shower unit. Bedroom two is another double with fitted wardrobes and a rear facing window, and bedroom three is also a comfortable double overlooking the rear garden. Bedroom four is currently used as a home office and could equally serve as a single bedroom or nursery.

Outside is one of the property's most appealing features: a sunny, tiered rear garden that has been cleverly designed to make the most of the plot. It is easy to maintain, so you can spend your time enjoying it rather than looking after it. A level patio adjoins the property and extends behind the kitchen, giving practical outdoor space for everyday use. Steps rise to a raised deck that catches the last of the evening sun and has elevated views over the town. It's a wonderful spot to unwind with a glass of something cold at the end of the day. An astro turfed area with a balustrade sits at the top of the garden and overlooks the lower deck, which is perfectly placed for outdoor dining and summer gatherings with family and friends. With its sunny aspect and several distinct areas, the garden is a superb space for entertaining.

To the front, a paved driveway provides two parking spaces, with a further space in front of the single garage.

Please note: The garage is held on a leasehold basis. The development is managed by a management company, and a restrictive covenant means caravans are not permitted on the driveway.

WHAT WE LOVE
"What makes this house stand out is the work the current owners have put in and the taste they've shown in doing it. The kitchen and bathrooms are luxurious. The extension has turned the ground floor into a wonderfully versatile living space that adapts to whatever a family
needs, whether that's room for entertaining, a quiet study or a dedicated craft room. The home still feels warm and liveable rather than clinical. The living room, with its bay window and fireplace, has real character, and the French doors from the dining room make summer evenings a real pleasure. The garden is a joy: sunny, easy to look after and made for entertaining. That raised deck with its views over the town, catching the last of the sun, is the kind of outdoor space people spend years looking for. This is a home that has been loved into its best possible version."

LOCATION — CARCLAZE, ST AUSTELL
A well-connected address with everything close at hand Lovering Road sits within the established residential area of Carclaze, one of St Austell's most popular and convenient neighbourhoods. Set on elevated ground above the town, the area offers a pleasant and settled residential character while remaining within easy walking distance of St Austell town centre and all of the everyday amenities it provides. For families in particular, the combination of good local schools, nearby parks and easy access to both town and countryside makes Carclaze a consistently sought-after choice.

The Cornish coast — closer than you think

One of the great advantages of a Carclaze address is the proximity to some of Cornwall's finest coastal scenery. The beach at Carlyon Bay, a long stretch of south-facing sand, is just a short drive away, as are the beautiful fishing harbours of Charlestown and Mevagissey.

Charlestown in particular is a gem: a Georgian mining port and UNESCO World Heritage Site with tall ships in the harbour, independent restaurants and a distinctly cinematic quality that makes it unlike anywhere else in the county. The South West Coast Path is accessible
nearby for those who want to explore the Cornish clifftops on foot.

Local attractions and outdoor life

The Eden Project, one of the world's most celebrated visitor attractions, is just a short drive from Carclaze and sits within the remarkable china clay landscape that defines this part of Cornwall. The Lost Gardens of Heligan, the Clay Trails cycling network, Tregrehan Gardens
and the broader network of Cornish walking routes all lie within easy reach, ensuring that life here offers no shortage of things to see, do and explore.

Getting around
St Austell's mainline railway station is within easy reach of Lovering Road and offers regular services to Truro, Plymouth and London Paddington, making this a practical base even for those who travel regularly. The A390 connects easily into the town centre and links westward towards Truro and eastward towards Lostwithiel and Liskeard, while the A30, Cornwall's main arterial route is accessible via the A391, providing straightforward connections across the county and beyond.
