Description

Nestled on Beach Road in Porthtowan, this two-bedroom detached bungalow presents a promising renovation project. With its prime location just moments from the beach and local amenities, it offers the potential for both personalisation and investment. The property is set above street level, providing an elevated outlook that could enhance a future renovation effort. Inside, the layout comprises a kitchen, living room, two double bedrooms, and a family bathroom. While the interiors require a comprehensive update, the solid structure allows for creative reimagining of space to reflect modern coastal living. The outdoor area features a decked front garden that holds promise for creating an inviting seating area, while a tiered rear garden includes a summerhouse suitable for storage or as a hobby space. Additional practicalities are provided by a small outhouse equipped with plumbing for laundry needs. Parking options exist with an area historically used for two vehicles; however, confirmation regarding title plan inclusion is pending. Equipped with electric night storage heating and solar panels, this property can be transformed into an appealing retreat or rental asset. Porthtowan is well-known for its stunning beach and vibrant surf culture, making it an attractive location for holiday lettings or year-round habitation. Local cafes and shops are within easy reach, alongside convenient access to major transport routes connecting to nearby towns like St Agnes and Truro.
