Location - Polruan lies on the east bank of the river Fowey, just inside the entrance to Fowey harbour. The village has its own general stores, sub post office, tea rooms, two public houses and a long established boat building and repair yard. The village is connected to Fowey, which has a wider range of small shops and businesses catering for most day to day needs, by a regular passenger ferry. The immediate area is surrounded by many miles of wonderful coast and countryside, much of which is in the ownership of the National Trust.

Once away from the immediate local lanes, there are good road connections to the motorway system via the A38/A30. Railway connections (London Paddington) can be made at a number of local stations (Par, Liskeard & Lostwithiel).

Tucked away on the quay, the cottage is accessed via a path from the harbour, to the right of The Winkle Picker. It can also be accessed via West Street down the steps of Betty Woon.



The Property -



A charming two bedroom cottage situated in the oldest part of the village, the quay. Mentioned in the local Reading Room documents as early as 1614, this cottage has under gone changes through the years but if only walls could talk!

Currently a much loved second home, Quay Cottage would also make an ideal holiday let.

A gate opens to a path leading to two entrances, one directly into the living room and the other is via a later extension to the cottage. Entering into a porch area, suitable for storing coats and shoes, a modern and well equipped shower room/wet room with Velux window, and a kitchen. The kitchen has ample storage cupboards, integral electric oven and two ring hob, space for a washing machine and upright fridge freezer.

From the Kitchen, a door opens into the living room, the original cottage. There is plenty of space for a dining room table and chairs, and sitting room furniture. A stone feature wall gives a nod to the age of the cottage and a large stone fire place with wood burner makes the cottage feel warm and cosy in the cooler evenings. Stairs lead up to the first floor which comprises two bedrooms, one twin room, one double room and a small storage cupboard on the landing.



Ouside -



A path leads from the front gate along the side of the cottages to the rear. Steps rise up to a patio terrace which runs the width of the cottage and is ideal place to store Kayaks, paddleboards and other water paraphernalia. The oil tank is located here and raised plant beds. There is also a sitting area with glass balustrade surround which enjoys views between the cottages to the Fowey Estuary.

Agent's Note - There is an element of flying freehold with a neighbouring cottage flying underneath Quay Cottage. We advise all perspective purchasers who require finance to contact their lender.
