SITUATION
Set around 100m from the water's edge on the picturesque pebbly beach at Porthallow, the property is situated in a prime coastal position enjoying views of the village and coastline.

The Lizard Peninsula remains one of the most unspoilt areas in Cornwall renowned for its picturesque coastal scenery and untouched rural hinterland. The peninsula is the most southerly point of England with wide expanses designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and owned by private estates or The National Trust.

Porthallow itself is a traditional Cornish fishing village with an attractive beach and the highly regarded Five Pilchards Inn. Once a busy cove engaged in the pilchard industry, there are still a small number of local fishermen who use the cove and the beach has become a favourite for its superb views across the mouth of the Helford River.

THE PROPERTY
The Anchorage is a deceivingly spacious coastal cottage in the heart of the popular and picturesque village of Porthallow.

Offering a high degree of flexibility the accommodation comprises:
Entrance hallway with large open stairwell, which gives access to the utility room, family shower room and kitchen. Leading from the kitchen you find the large open plan lounge/dining room with two original inglenooks and a formal front door. Beyond the dining room is a further ground floor bedroom or office.

The first floor offers 4 double bedrooms, three of which have views of the village and coast to the front of the property, and a family bathroom.

The layout of the property does lend itself to include a self-contained annex or ancillary accommodation if required.

OUTSIDE
To the front of the property is a small terrace ideal for planters and low-maintenance shrubs.

Steps to the side of The Anchorage rise to a private courtyard with a shelter that gives access to the property and to the side and rear gardens which are a real feature of this property.

To the rear, you'll find steps leading up to several terraced areas offering generously proportioned entertaining spaces from which views to Porthallow Cove and Falmouth Bay beyond can be enjoyed.
