Whitehouse is a lovely family home that provides an enviable lifestyle through a successful horticultural business coupled with a waterfront position only a few hundred yards above the banks of the Tamar Estuary. The property extends to about 2.57 acres in total. The chalet bungalow was built in the mid-1990s and faces south east.

The property is accessed off the lane leading into Cargreen. There is plenty of parking for a number of vehicles and vans within the premises. The front door of this charming chalet bungalow leads into a staircase hallway off which is are a study, kitchen/dining room and also a sitting room. Both these reception rooms have doors leading on out to a substantial, south east-facing decked terrace that enjoys the far-reaching views over the Tamar Estuary. Beyond the kitchen/dining room are two single bedrooms, a family bathroom (with both a bath and a shower) and a double bedroom with its own en suite shower room. A door leads through to the attached single garage.

Stairs lead up to the first floor landing off which are two further bedrooms, one of which has an en suite bathroom (with both the bath and a shower) and the fifth bedroom is substantial and could be used as a studio or gym, or indeed divided into two smaller rooms.
