Occupying a prime coastal position in one of the most sought after locations in Looe, this substantial detached property has panoramic sea views from all the principal rooms and the gardens. The accommodation, which is extremely spacious throughout has the added benefit of planning permission granted to extend and enlarge should it be required. Situated between the Barbican and Plaidy, on the lower section of Bay View Road, this unique property offers three first floor bedrooms each with its own generous en suite shower room and far reaching sea views taking in Rame Head and beyond, on a clear day. From the first floor landing there is also a door to the outside and a large relaxing patio, again with sea views. On the ground floor, the main hall provides access to most rooms and these include a visitors cloakroom, magnificent lounge with fireplace and doors to an external balcony overlooking the sea. The dining room can be accessed from the lounge or kitchen and this has a picture window so as to take full advantage of the views. From the dining room you enter a cinema room complete with screen and sound system, sea views, and a door to the outside, as well as a shower room. The kitchen is an absolute haven for anyone who enjoys entertaining, it is comprehensively fitted and finished with a central island. Leading off the kitchen there is a laundry room and a large integral workshop which could be easily brought into the main accommodation. On stepping outside you are greeted by pleasant gardens on various levels with areas of patio, lawn and decking. From the patio at first floor level there is a feature waterfall that cascades into a pond on the lower level patio. From nearly every part of the garden there are breathtaking views out to sea taking in Rame Head to the East and Looe island to the West. From Bay View Road there is a drive that provides parking for 2/3 vehicles and this leads to a double garage with pedestrian door to the garden. Within a relatively level walk from the property you will find a range of local amenities as well as the Wooldown, an open amenity area overlooking the sea. The main town, harbour and beach are just a little further but accessible on foot for those that are moderately fit.
Situated on the south coast of Cornwall, Looe is a historic, picturesque, and magical fishing town with quaint old buildings, narrow twisting streets, smugglers taverns, fine restaurants and a wonderful sandy beach with shallow seas and a wealth of rock pools. Divided into East and West by a seven arch bridge and the Looe River, the main town is on the eastern side and offers a diverse range of shops, good facilities, local amenities and excellent schools. The safe bay and estuary are a favourite with holiday makers as well as sailing, motorboat, and water sports enthusiasts, whilst the activities of the fishing fleet are a constant fascination to all. Looe is easily reached by the M5/A38 and is served by a scenic branch railway from Liskeard that connects through to Plymouth and from here to the rest of the UK.
