Description

Tucked away, yet close to the centre of the village, in a very desirable row of pretty quaint cottages, Porthole offers the perfect bolthole cottage for those wishing to escape to this award-winning renown village. Having undergone a recent full restoration, the current owners have enjoyed the cottage for many years with it offering an attractive characterful property, ideal for holidays, letting or a seaside home.

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.

This desirable home has the potential to provide the owners with a lucrative holiday letting income whilst also being able to enjoy the property themselves. Predicted income figures are available on request.
