Three Corner Meadow – A Unique Riverside Home with Rich Character in Cargreen, Cornwall
Built in 1983 by Calweton Builders and designed by architect Bryn Riches RIBA in the Post Modern style, Three Corner Meadow is a striking and versatile detached residence set in an elevated position in the sought-after riverside village of Cargreen. Commanding spectacular views over the River Tamar and surrounding countryside, the property blends architectural charm with modern practicality, creating a home that is both distinctive and welcoming.
A Home with History and Heart
Originally incorporating a small part-time dental surgery in what is now the ground-floor bedroom, Three Corner Meadow has evolved over the years to meet the needs of family life. Significant enhancements include the addition of a conservatory, basement wine cellar, double garage with workshop, greenhouse, summer house, potting shed, and wood store. Extensions to the sitting room, kitchen, and utility room have further enhanced the flow and functionality of the home.
The ground floor offers a vaulted sitting room with a feature fireplace and recently installed wood burner, a spacious kitchen/dining room at the heart of the home, a bright conservatory with garden access, a study, utility room, cloakroom, and a versatile double bedroom ideal for guests or multi-generational living.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys sweeping river views, accompanied by three further bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom, providing comfortable and flexible accommodation for families or visiting guests. All windows are double-glazed, and recent updates include partial reroofing (2016), new decking, and a fresh exterior repaint in 2025. Energy efficiency is boosted by owned solar panels with a feed-in tariff.
Gardens & Outdoor Living
Set within a generous, beautifully landscaped plot, the gardens offer lawns, mature planting, and multiple seating areas to take in the views. The summer house is the perfect retreat, while the greenhouse and potting shed will delight gardening enthusiasts. A private gated driveway leads to the double garage with workshop, providing ample parking and storage.
Connected & Convenient
Despite its peaceful rural setting, Cargreen enjoys excellent connections. St Mellion Golf & Country Club is just a 10-minute drive away, Waitrose in Saltash is under 15 minutes, and Saltash Railway Station, with mainline services to Plymouth, Exeter, London, and beyond can be reached in under 20 minutes.
Life in Cargreen
Cargreen is a thriving riverside community that has grown steadily, adding around two new homes each year. The village offers excellent facilities for families, with a toddlers group, preschool, and primary school, plus a school bus service to Saltash for secondary pupils.
The Cargreen Yacht Club is a hub of activity, with deep-water moorings, a clubhouse, and a popular cadet section. Social life is rich and varied, from short mat bowls and gardening clubs to choir, film nights, and mahjong. The annual Music Festival brings a month-long programme of events, while the Landulph Newsletter keeps residents connected. A well-maintained network of footpaths and bridleways invites exploration on foot or horseback, with local livery facilities nearby.
In Summary
Three Corner Meadow is more than just a home, it’s a lifestyle. Offering architectural distinction, flexible living spaces, beautiful gardens, and access to one of Cornwall’s most welcoming riverside communities, it is a rare opportunity to embrace both comfort and character in an idyllic setting.
