Claremont Terrace, Porthleven
PRICE GUIDE £499,950.00
An opportunity to purchase a well proportioned, two bedroom, semi-detached period character house which enjoys stunning sea and coastal views in the sought after Cornish fishing village of Porthleven.
Situated in arguably one of Porthleven's most sought after residential areas known locally as Breageside this residence, which benefits from double glazing and electric central heating, enjoys stunning sea and coastal views over other properties which I am sure will win favour with many prospective purchasers. The dwelling would seem an ideal location to enjoy the comings and goings of this bustling port.
In brief, the accommodation comprises a hall, lounge/diner, kitchen, rear porch and a shower room. On the first floor is a bathroom and two bedrooms. The outside space is a real feature of the property with the rear garden being terraced and providing many different levels to sit back and enjoy the outlook over properties out to sea and towards open countryside. At the top of the garden is an outbuilding which is currently utilised as a studio, perfectly positioned to enjoy the fine outlook. To the front of the residence is a small patio area as well as an area to the front of this which has traditionally been used by the residence for parking.
Porthleven is a vibrant, picturesque fishing village and mainland Britain's most southerly port. The village is renowned for its many highly regarded restaurants, long beach, surfing, rugged coastline and clifftop walks. Community groups are thriving within the village with sports' clubs and a prize winning brass band which can be heard echoing around the harbour on many a summer's Sunday evening. Local amenities include shops, restaurants, Public Houses, galleries, supermarket, doctors' surgery and a well regarded primary school.
