Description

A fantastic opportunity to purchase a three bedroom character house enjoying scintillating sea, harbour and coastal views in the sought after Cornish fishing village of Porthleven.

Located within arguably one of Porthleven's most iconic buildings, the former coastguard cottages, and situated on Peverell Terrace, is this stunning Tower House of immense charm and character. The property is said to have been built in 1866 and has undergone extensive modernisation and renovation in recent years steeped in history and once home to the Henry Trengrouse famous rocket life saving apparatus.

Located in the centre of the terrace of former coastguard cottages and incorporating the iconic tower section, this beautifully presented property provides well proportioned accommodation with many refinements of modern living. The property is currently run as a successful holiday let whilst also being frequently used by the owners. A jewel in the crown of this residence is the breathtaking roof terrace which provides panoramic views over the village, harbour and out to sea, certainly providing one with the "wow" factor.

In brief, the accommodation comprises, on the ground floor, a sitting room and bedroom with en suite shower room. On the first floor is a dining room with mezzanine level over, kitchen, cloakroom and two further bedrooms both with en suite facilities. The mezzanine level is currently used as a snug/office and a steep staircase ascends to the roof terrace area.

To the outside of the property is a parking space, which, with parking being at a premium at times in the village, is a real feature of the property. To the front of the residence is a pleasant patio area which would seem ideal for socialising enjoying the fine views. To the rear of the residence is a secluded decked area and an outbuilding.

Porthleven is a vibrant, picturesque fishing village and is mainland Britain's most southerly port. The village is renowned for its many highly regarded restaurants and is heaven for "foodies", long beach, surfing, rugged coastline and clifftop walks. The annual, three day award winning Porthleven Food and Music Festival attracts visitors from far afield who come to enjoy the live music, celebrity chefs and street food. Community groups are thriving within the village with sports clubs (including a wild swimming group called The Salty Sisters) 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, public houses, galleries, supermarket, doctors' surgery and a well regarded primary school.
