General Comments - Ponderosa is a very attractive detached period house located in a very convenient position within the sought after fishing village of Mevagissey. The house is within a short walk of the harbour and shops, yet is on the quieter eastern side of the village. The house is beautifully presented and has been greatly improved during our clients ownership leaving nothing for prospective purchasers to do, it really does need to be viewed to appreciate.
The house is currently arranged as a home with separate holiday let which brings in an excellent income, although this could be increased substantially as it is not available for all of the year. Located on the lower ground floor with independent access, it is let through Airbnb and has excellent five star reviews. Alternatively, ideal as an annexe for a family member.
The main house has three double bedrooms and bathroom on the first floor and there are far reaching views over Mevagissey. The ground floor has a superb sitting/dining room with feature fireplace and woodburner, fitted kitchen/breakfast room, utility room and cloakroom. All of the windows are double glazed and there is oil fired central heating.
The gardens are enclosed and found on three sides of the house. The larger rear garden is mainly lawn whilst there are terraces and sitting out spaces strategically places to enjoy the sunny aspect with a theme for outside dining and entertaining. There is parking for three cars at the front and a detached double garage with workshop below at the rear that offers further potential. An internal viewing is essential.
