The half-glazed stable type front door leads off the very attractive St Austell Row into a space for hanging coats and leaving shoes, and then into the charming and cosy living room with beamed ceiling and recently added multi-fuel burner, perfect for rainy days and winter months. Stairs lead to the first floor and an open way goes into the kitchen which has been cleverly designed, making the most of the space available. Off the kitchen is a small utility area and a back door leading to the rear courtyard which has space for a small table and 2 chairs.On the first floor there is a landing with doors to the two bedrooms, a double and a single, and the bathroom with a panelled bath, wash basin and wc.The location of Porthole is certainly most advantageous in this quiet and very popular road, being only moments away from the harbour, beach and amenities. Certainly, a rare opportunity!

Property information from this agent

Places of interest

    Unsurpassed local area knowledge is a significant attribute of the directors and staff of H Tiddy. They have a combined total of around 121 years experience of estate agency, plus further broad relevant experience in other areas. All this, plus living and working locally, makes us uniquely and comprehensively qualified. Three of the staff were born locally. It is as much the area as a property that buyers are seeking, and the paramount location and facilities knowledge of H Tiddy in this respect can bring the benefit of clinching an otherwise doubtful sale. Over our many years of operation we have sold every conceivable type of property in every market condition.
