Occupying a peaceful position on the edge of the highly regarded creekside village of Devoran, The Poplars is a detached period home set within approximately half an acre of beautifully established gardens and grounds. Rich in character and offering remarkably versatile accommodation, including excellent annexe potential, it combines generous living space with an unusually private outdoor setting close to Restronguet Creek and the Bissoe Trail.

At the heart of the house is a generous sitting and dining room, where exposed stonework, a wood-burning stove and broad windows create a comfortable focal point for everyday life. From here, the adjoining galley-style kitchen overlooks the courtyard and connects easily with the principal accommodation.

Also on the ground floor is a well-proportioned bedroom which could equally serve as a study, playroom or guest room. Upstairs are three further bedrooms, two of which enjoy attractive views across the gardens, together with a spacious family bathroom.

One of the property's most valuable features is the substantial adjoining extension, formerly arranged as a self-contained annexe. This flexible area now provides a study or home office with an en suite shower room, together with an additional reception room and kitchenette. It offers considerable scope for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, working from home or simply creating further family space.

Outside - The gardens and grounds extend to approximately half an acre and are a defining feature of the property. Broad lawns are framed by mature trees, established shrubs and colourful planting, creating a sheltered and private setting with a variety of places to sit and enjoy the surroundings.

A paved terrace beside the house provides an attractive area for outdoor dining and relaxation, while the generous courtyard offers ample parking for several vehicles.

Beyond the main gardens is a substantial former duck shed, together with a useful range of timber stores and outbuildings. These provide excellent space for garden equipment, bicycles, kayaks, paddleboards and other outdoor gear, making them particularly well suited to the property's proximity to Restronguet Creek and the Bissoe Trail.

Location - Devoran is one of Cornwall's most desirable creekside villages, combining a strong sense of community with easy access to the water and surrounding countryside. Set on the banks of Restronguet Creek, the village is particularly popular with those who enjoy sailing, kayaking, paddleboarding, walking and cycling.

The historic quay is a well-known local landmark and provides access to the creek, while The Old Quay Inn offers a popular place to eat and drink beside the water. Devoran also has a highly regarded primary school, helping to support the village's established and welcoming community. The Bissoe Trail passes close to the property and provides a largely traffic-free route through the Carnon Valley towards Cornwall's north coast. Restronguet Creek lies approximately 0.4 miles away, placing boating and waterside activities within easy reach.

Truro is approximately 4.8 miles away and offers an extensive range of shops, restaurants, schools and professional services. Falmouth, approximately 8 miles away, provides a further choice of amenities together with its harbour, beaches and maritime facilities. Mylor Harbour and the sailing waters of the Carrick Roads are also readily accessible.
