Description

Situated by the scenic Helford Estuary, this detached single-storey home presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in one of Cornwall's most desirable waterfront villages. Constructed in the 1950s and cherished by its owners for over 40 years, this three-bedroom residence is ripe for a transformation. While currently comfortable, it offers substantial potential for refurbishment and modernisation, allowing new owners to tailor their dream retreat amidst stunning natural surroundings. The property features a spacious living and dining area, kitchen, family bathroom, and cloakroom—all arranged on one level. The expansive plot includes an impressive patio area perfect for outdoor entertaining and beautifully landscaped gardens that lead down to the stream. Further enhancing the property's appeal is private driveway parking along with a detached garage, adding much-appreciated convenience in this village locale. Given the size of the lot, there are possibilities for extending or even replacing the existing structure with a custom-built home, subject to obtaining planning permissions. Additionally, there exists an option to acquire a separate parcel of land previously granted permission for a two-bedroom dwelling—a rare find in Helford that could serve various future visions. This home not only represents an investment in lifestyle but also in real estate potential amid one of Cornwall's most picturesque and sought-after areas.
