3 bedroom property for sale in Looe

Situated in the quaint and idyllic Cornish village of Lansallos just a short stroll from the beach you will find this unusual semi detached property that is set in generous gardens and offers beautifully presented three bedroom accommodation. Built for the local authority in the late 1940`s the property is of Swedish timber construction that is over clad to the external elevations and as a result of this it is unlikely to be considered as suitable security for a mortgage by most main stream lenders. In addition to this the property is also subject to a section 157 which means that any purchaser of the property must have lived or worked in Cornwall for at least three years immediately prior to their application to purchase. Providing you are able to meet these criteria then this property provides a fantastic opportunity to purchase a beautiful home in this highly sought after location on the Cornish coast close to the sea and surrounded by countryside, much of which is over seen by the National Trust. The property itself provides spacious accommodation over two floors, on the ground floor there is a hall with built in storage cupboards, from here doors lead off to a double bedroom, modern bathroom, lounge/diner, kitchen, and large utility room. The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern units and worktops as well as having a pantry. The utility room provides ample space for the washing machine and other appliances as well as storage etc. On the first floor there is a landing with built in airing cupboard and two further double bedrooms both offering far reaching countryside views. Once outside the property the gardens at the side and rear are enclosed with the latter adjoining farmland. The gardens are laid to lawn with flower beds and borders, two sheltered seating areas and two garden sheds. To the front there is path with flower beds and two recessed parking spaces.
