Full description:
A detached 1930s family house in a superb marine setting with far reaching sea and coastal views. 3 receptions, kitchen/breakfast room, utility, cloakroom, 4 bedrooms, 3 bath/shower rooms (2 en suite), excellent mature gardens of about a third of an acre, garaging and driveway, orchard.
Location
Pentreath lies in a prime waterside setting, just above the foreshore of Hannafore and enjoying wide views over Whitsand and Looe Bays, Looe Island and the English Channel.
This is a quality residential area devoted to a selection of individual detached residences set back from a no-through road. The panorama extends from Rame Head in the far distance, via the Eddystone Lighthouse in good weather conditions, across to the south where Looe Island dominates and towards St Austell Bay the south west, also in good weather conditions.
This area is away from through routes while being within only about half a mile of the centre of the twin fishing towns of East and West Looe which include a working fishing port and busy harbourside area flanked by tightly knit cottages and with a wide range of shopping and community service facilities. A railway station links Looe to Liskeard on the Penzance to Paddington line. The coastline either side of Looe is beautiful and unspoilt, accessed by the Cornwall South Coast Path and with substantial areas of National Trust ownership.
