5 bedroom detached house for sale

Welcome to 29 Essa Road, Saltash - A home with heart, history, and room to breathe.

Some houses feel like they’re waiting for the right people to come along — people who appreciate character, light, space, and a sense of calm nestled just moments from a bustling town. 29 Essa Road is one of those homes.

This double‑fronted detached period home has been lovingly cared for & exceptionally well maintained over the years, and it shows. Imagine kicking off muddy boots by the door after a long walk, laughter drifting from the kitchen, and summer evenings spent in the garden with a glass of something chilled. It’s not just a property — it’s a lifestyle waiting to unfold.

A Warm Welcome

Step inside and you’re greeted by a beautiful tiled hallway that instantly sets the tone: elegant, characterful, and quietly impressive. It’s the sort of entrance that makes guests pause and admire the welcoming space, and it immediately feels like home.

From here, the home opens into two generous reception rooms — each with its own fireplace, each with its own personality. Whether you’re hosting a lively gathering or curling up for a quiet evening in front of the open fire, these rooms adapt beautifully to whatever life brings. The lounge with the beautiful turret is a perfect spot to relax with a book, with light flooding in, away from the hustle & bustle.

The Heart of the Home

The kitchen/breakfast room is where this house really shines. Flooded with natural light and opening directly onto the side garden, it’s a space that encourages slow mornings, long chats, and everyday living around the Aga.

A utility room and boot room keep the practicalities tucked neatly away, and for those who appreciate a good bottle, there’s even a wine cellar hidden beneath the house — a little secret waiting to be enjoyed.

A cloakroom and shower complete the ground floor, adding convenience without fuss.

Space for Everyone

Upstairs, a bright & spacious landing leads to five bedrooms – bedroom five is currently used as a home office/library. Each one has its own charm, with sunlight pouring in and plenty of room to grow into, ample storage and beautiful high ceilings. Whether you need bedrooms, workspaces, creative corners, or guest rooms, there’s flexibility here in abundance.

A family bathroom, plus an additional shower room and WC, means morning routines can run smoothly — even with a full house.

A Garden to Escape To

Outside, the mature walled garden feels like a private sanctuary. Established shrubs, leafy borders, and a peaceful patio create a space perfect for morning coffee, alfresco dinners, or simply unwinding at the end of the day. It’s enclosed, tranquil, and full of potential for green‑fingered dreamers.

Life in Saltash

Saltash is a town with soul — perched on the River Tamar, rich in history, and surrounded by natural beauty. Whether you’re drawn to sailing, riverside walks, or simply the charm of a community with everything close at hand, it’s a place that offers a wonderfully balanced lifestyle.

Shops, schools, a leisure centre, and a mainline railway station are all within easy reach, making everyday life refreshingly simple.
