Description

1960s detached bungalow in an elevated position above Sennen Cove enjoying outstanding uninterrupted sea views. Huge potential for improvement or replacement with one/two dwellings (subject to consent) in a site of almost a third of an acre. Sold with no onward chain.

The Property
Mellen-Dhu was built in 1966 by the current owners and has been a much-cherished home since. The property is now in need of total renovation or perhaps even replacement with one or possibly two dwellings (subject to consent) but boasts the most fantastic position. The site extends to 0.28 acres or thereabouts and sits high above the cove affording tremendous and uninterrupted sea views and undoubtedly presents a seldom available opportunity to create a stunning home in such a sought after location.

The bungalow presently offers spacious and well proportioned accommodation comprising; entrance porch and hall (both with ample storage), triple aspect living room, dining room, kitchen with pantry and AGA, three double bedrooms (all with fitted wardrobes), bathroom and separate w.c. as well as a garage. There is parking and turning space for several vehicles as well as lawned gardens to the rear, front and side. The front is tiered and enjoys the best of the views.

Location
Mellen-Dhu enjoys an elevated position which affords dramatic views over Sennen Cove and the sea. The property is located along Maria's Lane, set on the outer fringes of the village and yet within a short walk of the every day amenities which Sennen has to offer - including a public house, fish and chip shop, surf club, café, convenience store and a primary school. The South West Coast Path and the beach are within easy reach, also. Further facilities including a mainline railway link to London (Paddington) are available in the seaside town of Penzance, which is within 10 miles. Sennen Cove sits within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
