Description
The property itself is brimming with historic charm and original features, including traditional Nordic panelling dating back to the 17th century and an extraordinary walk-in inglenook fireplace that sets a warm and welcoming tone. Inside, the home offers an impressive amount of space, with a wonderfully open plan living area that seamlessly combines the kitchen, dining, and sitting areas – ideal for family life and entertaining.
In addition, there’s a spacious separate lounge, a bright sunroom, a conservatory that looks out over the gardens, and a practical utility room. A split level landing, a characterful feature in its own right, leads to three generously sized bedrooms, two of which benefit from built-in wardrobes. The large family bathroom boasts a freestanding bath and separate shower cubicle, adding a touch of luxury.
Set in grounds of approximately 1.25 acres, the property enjoys beautifully planted gardens, a paddock, and sea views from the top of the plot – a true rarity this close to the coast. Whether you're looking for space to relax, grow your own, or simply enjoy the view, this outdoor setting is exceptional. Further benefits include a larger than average garage, ample off-road parking, and the potential for so much more.
Properties with this level of character, land, and proximity to the sea rarely come to market – this is a unique opportunity to secure a piece of Cornish history in one of the area's most treasured villages.
