The property

Thought to have been built between 200-300 years ago and once a likely smugglers cottage due to its “hidden” room, this rather nice property is located in the centre of the village and close to the harbour. Sea views are from all the front windows and the inglenook fireplace is just wonderful. On the ground floor there is a lovely lounge and also a more formal sitting room plus a large galley kitchen. There are currently two bedrooms (there is the possibility the new owner may wish to extend into the loft space). On road parking is within 20 yards and the rear garden faces mainly South and has some pleasing views of the sea and bay. Excitingly this property is being sold with no onward chain!

The location

A three-acre sandy beach and crystal-clear sea awaits visitors to this beautiful fishing village. Only ten miles from Helston and twenty-one miles from Falmouth. Coverack offers peaceful, yet easily accessible, living. Unlike some fishing villages there are no single-track roads to the village and that is an important reason why so many people move to Coverack, including our Dave, who works in our Heather & Lay Falmouth office. Dave champions the sociable community as a major reason for choosing Coverack as home. Dave would be very willing to talk to anyone wishing to know more about the activities in the village. The local shop offers most provisions and The Loft where you can get Cornish Roskilly's ice cream. The village 'local' is The Paris Hotel, built by the Redruth Brewery back in 1907 and named after the liner ss paris which ran aground on the headland on Whit Monday 1899 offering good quality food and drink (don't forget the Wednesday night quiz) or if it is just fish and chips you are after then pop along to Mark at the old lifeboat house. Robin & Chris can teach you windsurfing, or, hire out kayaks or paddle boards and Marshall & Hannah offer a wide selection of local crafts/gifts in the Old Mill House. Plenty of good walks are on the doorstep along the coastal path where hidden beaches, wildlife, flora and rocky outcrops present great interest, peaceful and spectacular scenery.
