We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

Description A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a former guest house within the village of Boscastle, offering a 7 bedroom main house with a 2 bedroom annexe which was formerly used as the owners accommodation.
The property would benefit from cosmetic upgrading throughout.
Accommodation The spacious and extensive accommodation is clearly identified on the floorplan overleaf and briefly comprises; 3 large reception rooms, currently laid out as a dining and sitting room with steps up to a further reception room which has a bar and two WC's.
The inner hall leads to a laundry room, utility, store room and kitchen which has a large range of cupboards and work surfaces, sink and cooker.
The rear door leads out to the car park and an additional outside store.
The first floor offers 4 en-suite bedrooms, each with differing aspects and some benefitting from the elevated position of the property with views over the village and across to the sea.
Two separate staircases lead to two second floors, one with 2 further en-suite double bedrooms and the second, a further en-suite double bedroom.
Our client has replaced the majority of the sealed units within the Upvc double glazed windows as of June 2026.
