Studio for sale

Thornlea Mews, Hope Cove TQ7

An exceptionally rare opportunity to own a freehold studio apartment in the highly sought-after coastal village of Hope Cove, directly benefiting from golden sandy beaches, two popular public houses, and the South West Coast Path right on your doorstep. This property presents an exciting prospect as a perfectly located and low-maintenance coastal retreat.

The thoughtfully arranged studio features a simple kitchenette for convenience, built-in storage cupboards maximising space and comfortable bunk beds with ample room for an additional bed or sofa. A separate, well-appointed shower room completes this ideal setup, making it the perfect base for relaxed seaside breaks or invaluable overflow accommodation for visitors.
