A spacious detached home and separate studio/annexe, set in generous gardens and grounds, enjoying an elevated position above Port Isaac, with far-reaching coastal and rural views.

Description

The building dates from the mid-1970's and has been in the same family's ownership for over 20 years. Harbour heights offers spacious and adaptable accommodation over two floors, extending to just over 2,800 sq ft. Modern additions include a wonderful garden room, providing a fabulous entertaining and living space, that opens onto a decked terrace and the gardens, beyond which, magnificent views over Port Isaac and out to sea can be enjoyed.

From the driveway and parking area in front of the garage, there is access to a practical utility/boot room area, with a slate floor. The l-shaped kitchen provides plenty of versatile space and storage for a large family. From the kitchen, a door leads into a large garden room that stretches along the length of the house, allowing for a substantial dining table as well as a generous area for sofas, from which to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Patio doors open onto the decked patio and the garden.

A more traditional sitting room leads from the garden room to the hall, beyond which are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Another door opens to the wrap around deck and barbecue area.

Stairs to the first floor lead to three double bedrooms. On the right, the largest of these has an en suite bathroom, extensive storage and far-reaching views over the paddock and valley beyond. The remaining two bedrooms have an interconnecting door with steps down to the furthest one, making it ideal as a nursery, though large enough to be an additional double bedroom. They share another good-sized bathroom.

A path leads from the garden at the side of the house, to the impressive detached annexe, set towards the top of a paddock. This stone faced building has a mature sedum roof which renders it almost invisible as a building from the upper perimeter of the property. The building provides a kitchenette and a generous bedroom with sitting area and en suite bathroom, arguably with the best views in Port Isaac. Slate floors and bifold doors open onto a terrace completing this superbly practical space.

The gardens of both the house and annexe offer plenty of privacy with mature hedges, terraced levels and extensive lawns. The Paddock below the house is available for purchase.

Location

Harbour heights sits above the pretty coastal village of Port Isaac, one of North Cornwall’s most charming and popular fishing villages, spectacularly sited on a rugged stretch of coastline between Pentire Point to the west and Tintagel in the east.

This was a busy fishing port and, from the Middle Ages to the mid-19th century, it was an active harbour shipping cargoes of stone, coal, timber and pottery. Fishing and fish-processing were also very important and today there are still fishermen working from the harbour. The village is now nationally and internationally renowned for its association with the television series 'Doc Martin'.

Most of the old part of the village consists of picturesque 18th and 19th century cottages, many of which have been officially listed due to their architectural and historic importance, and most of which are located within narrow alleys and streets that wind down the steep hillside toward the harbour.

The village has an excellent selection of pubs, restaurants and shops, including Restaurant Nathan Outlaw which was voted the best restaurant in Britain in August 2017 by the Good Food Guide and holds two Michelin stars. There is a local Co-Op at the top of the village, within easy reach of the property.

This stretch of coastline offers a variety of excellent surfing beaches including Polzeath and Trebarwith, whilst the Camel Estuary to the west has excellent sailing and watersports facilities. The South West Coastal Footpath offers many miles of dramatic coastal walks, or for the golfing enthusiast, there are courses nearby at Rock, Polzeath, Trevose and Newquay.
