Description

This unique three-bedroom detached bungalow presents a rare chance for savvy investors or renovation enthusiasts to make their mark in the desirable village of Golant. With stunning panoramic views over the Fowey Estuary and surrounding countryside, this property is nestled within a generous plot equipped with an integral garage and ample off-road parking for several vehicles. While the home is structurally sound, it does require modernisation, offering a blank canvas for those looking to enhance its appeal further. Located on a tranquil lane, White Gables boasts spacious interiors that include a large living area featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors that lead out to an expansive wooden deck—ideal for entertaining while enjoying picturesque vistas. The kitchen, with its traditional solid wood units and large Aga, lends itself to renovation opportunities by introducing contemporary finishes. Each of the three double bedrooms provides potential for reconfiguring or updating to create inviting personal spaces. The property's outdoor space is equally promising; the rear garden includes lush hydrangeas and well-established plants, providing a serene environment that can be further developed. Alongside its charming characteristics, White Gables offers two loft spaces that could potentially add valuable living space subject to necessary permissions. With vacant possession and no onward chain, this property stands ready for transformation into a dream home or lucrative rental investment.
