PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
This characterful end-terraced house is arranged over three floors and offers an exciting opportunity to create a lovely home in this popular village, close to the beach. The accommodation includes an open-plan lounge/dining room, with the lounge featuring a period-style bioethanol fireplace and wooden flooring, while doors from the dining area open out to the rear courtyard. A recently refitted galley kitchen provides a smart and practical addition to the ground floor. On the first floor are two bedrooms and a shower room, with the second bedroom currently utilised as a useful store room. The third bedroom occupies the top floor and enjoys an attractive exposed beamed ceiling, together with a Velux roof light offering side views towards St Michael's Mount. The current owners have undertaken a number of improvements since taking ownership, including a new kitchen, new electric heating and a new hot water cylinder, while gas has also been brought to the property and pipework installed. There remains scope for further finishing and personalisation, including some internal doors, skirtings and decoration. The owners have a carpet and electric heater available for Bedroom 2, and have also purchased a brand new bathroom suite and tiles, which are available by separate negotiation. With much of the groundwork already undertaken, this property offers an excellent opportunity for a first-time buyer to complete the remaining works and make it their own, all within a popular village location close to the beach.
LOCATION
Long Rock is a popular coastal village occupying a lovely position on the shores of Mount’s Bay, conveniently situated between the seaside town of Marazion and the historic market town of Penzance. The village has a good range of everyday amenities including a village shop and Post Office, public houses and playing field, together with a number of local businesses and services. The village is particularly well placed for those who enjoy the outdoors, with Long Rock Beach stretching along the shoreline towards Marazion and offering wonderful views across Mount’s Bay to St Michael’s Mount. The beach is a mixture of sand and shingle and is popular with walkers, families, swimmers, paddleboarders and windsurfers, with the level South West Coast Path and sea wall providing a particularly enjoyable route along the bay. Marazion, just a short distance away, offers a further selection of cafés, restaurants, galleries and independent shops, as well as its beautiful sandy beach and iconic St Michael’s Mount, while Penzance provides a wider range of shopping, leisure, educational and transport facilities. The nearby Marazion Marsh nature reserve also provides an attractive setting for enjoying the local wildlife and countryside, making Long Rock an appealing base for both permanent living and enjoying the Cornish coast.
