Description
Formally operated as a guest house, the property has been considerably enhanced by the current vendors and offers a wealth of possibilities for those seeking a large family home, multiple generational living or a property with potential for additional income, subject to any necessary planning and consents. A particular feature is the four bay parking area to the side, an especially valuable asset in Porthleven when parking can be at a premium at times. To the rear is an attractive, low maintenance hard landscaped courtyard providing a pleasant floor space.
The accommodation is generously proportioned and includes a fabulous 20' lounge, open plan kitchen/diner, games room, utility room and ground floor W.C. The first floor provides four bedrooms including a master bedroom with ensuite facilities together with the family bathroom. The second floor offers two further bedrooms, one benefiting from an ensuite shower, along with an additional shower room.
The property also enjoys a range of appealing views including towards Porthleven Methodist Chapel, The Bickford Smith Institute Clock Tower, across neighbouring properties towards open countryside and out to sea.
Porthleven is a vibrant, picturesque fishing village and mainland Britain's most southerly port. The village is renowned for its many highly regarded restaurants, long beach, surfing, rugged coastline and clifftop walks. Community groups are thriving within the village with sports' clubs and a prize winning brass band which can be heard echoing around the harbour on many a summer's Sunday evening. Local amenities include shops, restaurants, Public Houses, galleries, supermarket, doctors' surgery and a well regarded primary school.
