Description

Polperro House is an extraordinary Grade II listed residence that offers a rare opportunity to own a distinguished piece of Cornish history in the heart of Polperro. Originally two separate dwellings, this impressive five-bedroom property has been thoughtfully combined into a single home, featuring a blend of period charm and modern functionality, with breathtaking views over Polperro’s historic harbour and the open sea beyond. This property is ideal as a family home, a sought-after holiday retreat, or a premium investment opportunity, supported by its proven success as a five-star-rated holiday let.

Polperro House is replete with historical character, having belonged to notable figures including Herbert E. Butler, a renowned Cornish landscape artist, and the first recorded automobile owner in England. The interiors boast exposed beams, original wooden floorboards, working shutters, and a characterful inglenook fireplace in the drawing room. Period details are thoughtfully preserved, such as a built-in wig cupboard on the staircase and original fireplaces in several bedrooms, adding to the property’s unique allure.

The home’s well-appointed kitchen, fitted with shaker-style units and hardwood floors, serves as a central gathering space, perfectly suited for family meals or entertaining. The first floor features three bedrooms, including a double en suite room with spectacular harbour views, a twin room, and a cozy bunk room. A second reception room on this level offers a cozy retreat for games or movie nights. The second floor houses a magnificent master suite, complete with panoramic sea views, a spacious en suite bathroom with a traditional claw-foot tub, and an additional guest bedroom with a family bathroom nearby. The layout is designed to maximize comfort while offering scenic views of the harbour and sea from nearly every room.

The private, south-facing garden features terraced patios, evoking a Mediterranean ambiance ideal for al fresco dining or outdoor gatherings. At the property’s entrance, secure wrought iron gates lead into the home, with 2 private parking  spaces on title conveniently located in the village by separate negotiation.

Located in the heart of Polperro, this property offers immediate access to the village’s charming amenities and scenic coastline. Known for its winding streets, historic cottages, and vibrant harbour, Polperro provides a lifestyle that feels like stepping into a postcard, with opportunities for coastal walks, historic explorations, and activities like fishing, kayaking, and cliffside strolls to nearby coves. Polperro House stands as a home that combines history, beauty, and functionality, offering a truly enchanting Cornish lifestyle.
