Old Reservoir House

Perched in an elevated waterside position within the esteemed enclave of Noss Mayo, Old Reservoir House commands an extraordinary presence over the River Yealm estuary. This sophisticated three-level residence has been conceived to celebrate its panoramic water views at every turn, with flawless indoor outdoor living that redefines coastal elegance.

The heart of the home unfolds on the first floor, where a monumental open plan living space draws all attention toward the emerald tide below. Floor to ceiling bi folding doors run the full width of the house, opening onto a glass balcony that seems to float above the water.

A bespoke kitchen anchors the space with high specification appointments including a Quooker boiling tap, twin ovens, twin dishwashers, and a ROK espresso machine. The adjacent dining area seats twelve beneath the shifting light of the estuary, while a generous L-shaped sofa clusters around a dual-sided log burner. On the other side of that fireplace lies a separate sitting room, and a soundproofed cinema room provides a private retreat for film evenings.

Handcrafted staircases connect the residence across its levels. The master suite occupies the second floor with a glass-fronted balcony, remote-controlled gas fire, dressing room, and an ensuite bathroom featuring a free-standing bath and walk-in shower. Three further bedrooms on the ground floor offer king sized beds, Juliet balconies, and ensuite facilities, alongside a twin bedroom and a family bathroom. On the lower ground floor, a sixth bedroom suite includes a kitchenette and separate sitting area, affording complete privacy for guests who wish to enjoy quiet morning cofferies before joining the group.

Outside, a lawned garden and patio accommodate barbecue suppers for twelve, while two glass fronted balconies invite sunrise breakfasts and sunset drinks above the tide. From almost every bedroom, Juliet balconies ensure the sights and sounds of the estuary remain never more than a moment away.
