Situation - Set just 150 metres from the pebbly beach at Porthallow, the property is situated in a secluded rural position enjoying views to the waters of Falmouth Bay.
 
The Lizard Peninsula remains one of the most unspoilt areas in Cornwall renowned for its picturesque coastal scenery and untouched rural hinterland. The peninsula is the most southerly point of England with wide expanses designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and owned by private estates or The National Trust.

Porthallow itself is a traditional Cornish fishing village with an attractive beach and the highly regarded Five Pilchards Inn. Once a busy cove engaged in the pilchard industry, there are still a small number of local fishermen who use the cove and the beach has become a favourite for its superb views across the mouth of the Helford River.

The Property - A unique opportunity to acquire a beautiful, well-maintained converted school house, in the heart of the much sought after coastal village of Porthallow.

Well-proportioned rooms are a notable feature of this property. The spacious main sitting room is particularly stunning with floor to ceiling granite mullion windows allowing a wide view across the picturesque bay.

A versatile layout offers flexible living arrangements with potential to reconfigure the accommodation to create additional living space (annexe), with the relevant permissions.

Packed full of traditional features, including granite mullion windows, exposed beams and vaulted ceilings, internally this property has huge appeal.

Externally, the property is equally impressive, surrounded by well established lawns, flower beds, vegetable patches and entertaining spaces, offering tremendous potential and wonderful space for recreation, relaxation and horticulture.

The property offers multiple outbuildings, including a well positioned sunroom overlooking the bay.

Services - Mains Water, Mains Drainage, Mains Electric.

Viewings - Strictly by appointment through Stags Truro Office - telephone[use Contact Agent Button].

Directions - Proceed to Porthallow, passing the beach on the right-hand side.

Proceed up School Hill and the School House can be seen on your right hand-side.
