Description
Set in a desirable coastal-rural location between the picturesque fishing villages of Looe and Polperro, this substantial detached residence enjoys the perfect balance of countryside tranquillity and convenient access to the South Cornish coastline. Surrounded by rolling countryside with far-reaching views towards Looe, the property offers exceptionally versatile accommodation extending across a generous plot of approximately one acre, including a spacious five-bedroom main residence together with a self-contained two/three-bedroom annexe.
Approached via the driveway leading to extensive parking areas, the property immediately impresses with its characterful appearance, attractive stonework and welcoming feel. A solid timber entrance door opens into a charming entrance lobby with exposed stone walls and slate flooring, introducing the wealth of character features found throughout the home.
The main hallway leads through to the principal reception rooms, including an impressive dual-aspect living room of excellent proportions. This inviting space enjoys views across the gardens and features a striking red brick fireplace with inset woodburner, exposed stone detailing and direct access into the conservatory. The conservatory provides a wonderful vantage point from which to enjoy the surrounding landscape and gardens.
The accommodation continues seamlessly through to the breakfast area and kitchen, fitted with a range of base and wall units and complementary work surfaces, all enhanced by charming ceiling beams. The adjoining office provides an ideal work-from-home space, offering a quiet and versatile area away from the main living accommodation. Equally, its convenient position off the kitchen lends itself perfectly to use as a dining room or family room, making it a flexible space to suit a variety of lifestyles while continuing the warm and characterful atmosphere found throughout the property.
To the rear of the house, an inner hallway overlooks the grounds and provides access to a useful utility/cloakroom, additional storage and boot room with rear access to the gardens. The boot room also allows access to the self contained annexe.
The first floor offers five generously proportioned bedrooms, all providing excellent accommodation and enjoying pleasant outlooks over the surrounding gardens or countryside. The principal bedroom benefits from built-in storage and a wash hand basin, while one of the bedrooms enjoys direct access to a shower room, offering excellent potential to create a private en suite arrangement. A separate family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.
The self-contained annexe offers excellent flexibility and is ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation or potential holiday letting. The annexe comprises an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, two/three bedrooms, a bathroom and a further office/occasional bedroom.
Outside, the property enjoys ample driveway parking with timber gates opening to additional parking areas together with a double garage, providing excellent storage, or covered parking options.
The grounds create a wonderful setting for the property, combining open lawned areas with established planting and mature trees that provide both colour and privacy throughout the seasons. A seating terrace takes full advantage of the beautiful garden, while various areas of the garden offer space for outdoor entertaining, family enjoyment or simply relaxing within the peaceful surroundings. The overall plot extends to approximately one acre, giving the property a true sense of space and seclusion.
