Enjoying far reaching views over open countryside and out to sea. The property, we are advised by the owner, as completed in 1985 and is in need of some updating but offers great potential to prospective purchasers. The residence benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazing.
Rocky Lane itself is located close to Godolphin Hill and the Godolphin Estate which is under the stewardship of the National Trust and provides many pleasant walks and vantage points to enjoy the far reaching views. The nearby village of Godolphin has a well regarded primary school, whilst more extensive amenities can be found in the nearby market town of Helston including national stores, cinema, comprehensive schooling and sports centre with indoor swimming pool. The popular village of Praa Sands with its sandy beach is located to the south along with the Cornish fishing village of Porthleven with its many public houses, shops and restaurants nestled around its harbour. Further amenities can also be found in the town of Penzance with national rail links to London and the north.
