About
The residence, which benefits from double glazing, is in need of some updating to realise its full potential and enjoys views over the village, towards open countryside and distant sea glimpses.
The outside space is a real feature of the property with good size gardens to the front and rear. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn and boasts well established plants and shrubs.
The rear garden is mainly hard landscaped which would seem ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining. In brief, the accommodation comprises a hall, lounge, shower room, kitchen/diner and 3 bedroom.
Porthleven is a thriving seaside Cornish fishing village with its large harbour providing a focal point. Around this cluster many pubs, restaurants and businesses.
The village provides amenities to cater for everyday needs as well as a primary school, whilst the more comprehensive amenities of Helston are a few miles distant and these include national stores, cinema and sports centre with indoor swimming pool.
Located between Helston and Porthleven is the beautiful Penrose Estate, managed by The National Trust, with its many walks and trails through the Cornish countryside around Loe Pool which is Cornwall's largest natural fresh water lake.
Porthleven has a prize winning Brass Band which, on many a summer’s Sunday evening, can be heard echoing around the village, creating atmosphere and ambience for both residents and visitors.
