Description

This four-bedroom detached house is perched on an elevated plot, offering expansive views of the sea that stretch from Looe Island to Rame Head. While the property requires significant renovation, it presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a prime location with considerable potential for enhancement and development, subject to necessary planning approvals. The layout features a spacious sitting room with prominent sea views, alongside an adjoining conservatory that runs the full width of the home. The conservatory not only provides a bright and airy extension to the living space but also offers direct access to both the front and side gardens. The kitchen/breakfast room is functional, with original fixtures and a door leading out to the side garden. It does show signs of wear and will benefit from modern upgrades. Each of the four bedrooms captures different aspects of this stunning coastal setting, ensuring that natural light fills these spaces throughout the day. The master bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and opens into the conservatory for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Additionally, there’s a versatile fourth bedroom that can double as a dining room, adding flexibility for family or guests. Outside, terraced gardens surround the property, showcasing mature shrubs and trees that enhance its charm while offering immense potential for landscaping improvements. There is ample off-road parking available directly in front of the house as well as additional parking across the road. Notably, there is lapsed planning permission for a first-floor extension (PA20/03338), which opens up possibilities for expanding the living space further—ideal for those wishing to customize their home or increase its value significantly. This property represents an exciting project within a sought-after community known for its scenic beauty and coastal lifestyle. With vision and effort, it could be transformed into a remarkable residence tailored to your needs while ensuring solid investment returns given its desirable location.
