Property code: 83495

This idyllic bungalow is located in the quiet seaside village of Gorran Haven, just 400 metres from its two beaches. It is just a short drive away from many of Cornwall’s top attractions, such as The Lost Gardens of Heligan (5.5 miles), The Eden Project (15 miles) and Caerhays Castle (3.5 miles). Surrounded by picturesque countryside and a dramatic coastline, it's perfect for all outdoor enthusiasts who want to enjoy an abundance of nearby cliff-top walks. The surrounding area is full of interesting harbour towns and villages, including Mevagissey (3 miles) and Charlestown (11.5 miles). The latter is known for being a filming location in the TV series Poldark; it has an interesting shipwreck museum, as well as tall ships moored in the harbour.

Beautifully furnished, the property itself begins with a light and welcoming entrance hall, which leads into the kitchen - a space well equipped with everything you’ll need, including an electric oven and hob, a fridge/freezer, a dishwasher, and a microwave, so you can get creative and cook up a special meal for the whole family. From the kitchen, a second hallway leads through to the gorgeous garden, and at the end of the hallway, you’ll find a washing machine and tumble dryer in the utility room along with a separate WC & hand basin. From the main entrance hall, the stylish open-plan lounge/diner sits to your left. Enjoy a lazy breakfast at the dining table whilst planning your day ahead, or cosy up on one of the comfortable sofas, soak in the sea view or watch the Smart TV. You can also access the utility and garden from the lounge. From the main entrance hall, you can head right to the bedrooms. The double bedroom has an en suite WC, a chest of drawers, and a wardrobe. There is also a spacious king-size bedroom and a twin bedroom. The newly updated, modern bathroom has a bath, a separate shower cubicle with a shower, and a WC.

Outside, the green garden is completely enclosed and private. There are several seating areas for al fresco dining when the sun is shining - or when the BBQ is on the go - and plenty of space to unwind while the children play on the lawn. Plus, there's a beautiful terrace with a partial sea view. To the front of the property is a newly paved driveway with parking for two cars.
