Stunning cliff-side property in Cornwall

A unique property in a sought-after fishing village on the south coast of Cornwall has come onto the market

Tycara is a fantastic waterside property in Cornwall in the pretty village of Polperro on the south coast. The property has elevated panoramic views over the village itself, the inner and outer harbours and out into the stunning backdrop of the English Channel.

The house was built in the second half of the last century, and has been renovated to the highest standard. The accommodation has two reception rooms with sea views, three bedrooms (master with en suite shower room), shower room, kitchen/breakfast room, garden room, cloakroom and sun terraces outside. There is underfloor heating throughout under wide oak planks and limestone and marble.

The south facing terrace stretches from a large area on the eastern side across to the lawned area on the western side. Access isn’t possible in any vehicles larger than quad bikes due to the narrow streets leading up to the property and there is one of these included in the sale. The property also has fantastic large cliff-side gardens and grounds.

Polperro is one of the most desirable villages in Cornwall – it has a marvellous 16th century harbour which is located at the bottom of the village. The village is largely protected by preservation orders which ensure the character and appearance are not changed too much – one of the reasons it remains so appealing.

The coastline is stunning and transport links are good: Looe is just over four miles away while Liskeard is 14 miles away and Fowey just over seven miles for further local amenities and links to London.

The asking price is £895,000. For further information please telephone Savills on 01872 243 200 or visit www.savills.co.uk.
