4 bedroom detached house for sale

An opportunity to purchase a detached, four bedroom house in the heart of the sought after Cornish fishing village of Porthleven. The residence, which benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazing, is well proportioned and enjoys views over the village, towards open countryside and out to sea.

We are advised by the owners that this is the first time the property has been offered for sale for over twenty years, in which time it has been run as a successful holiday let, a private dwelling house and a long term rental property.

In brief, the accommodation comprises an entrance area, hall, lounge, dining room, conservatory, inner hall, kitchen, W.C., utility room and, completing the ground floor, a rear porch. On the first floor is a master bedroom suite with bathroom and three further bedrooms and a shower room. The outside space is a real feature of the property with gardens to the front and rear, the rear garden being of particularly good size and mainly laid to lawn. The rear garden also provides a pleasant decked area which would seem ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining. To the side of the residence a driveway provides parking and leads to a garage.

Porthleven is a thriving seaside Cornish fishing village with its large harbour providing a focal point. Around this cluster many pubs, restaurants and businesses. The village provides facilities to cater for everyday needs as well as a primary school, whilst the more comprehensive amenities of Helston are a few miles distant and these include national stores, cinema and sports centre with indoor swimming pool.

Situated between Helston and Porthleven is the beautiful Penrose Estate which is managed by The National Trust and where one may delight in the many walks and trails through the Cornish countryside around Loe Pool which is Cornwall's largest natural fresh water lake. Porthleven has a prize winning Brass Band which, on many a summer's Sunday evening, can be heard echoing around the village, creating atmosphere and ambience for both residents and visitors.
