Polruan
Polruan lies on the east bank of the river Fowey, just inside the entrance to Fowey harbour. The village has its own general stores, sub post office, tea rooms, two public houses and a long established boat building and repair yard. The village is connected to Fowey, which has a wider range of small shops and businesses catering for most day to day needs, by a regular passenger ferry. The immediate area is surrounded by many miles of wonderful coast and countryside, much of which is in the ownership of the National Trust.
Once away from the immediate local lanes, there are good road connections to the motorway system via the A38/A30. Railway connections (London Paddington) can be made at a number of local stations (Par, Liskeard & Lostwithiel).
The Property
This lovely property has the most spectacular views over Polruan, across the harbour and to countryside beyond. An end of terrace, three bedroom property with grounds to the front, side and rear and parking for two cars. The house would make a lovely main home or work equally as well as a second home. The property benefits from access both at the rear (from St Saviours) and from the front via School Lane. The vendor has planning permission to extend the property with extension to the rear and front to create a fabulous kitchen/dining room, larger third bedroom and addtional ensuite - PA23/06416. https://planning.cornwall.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=documents&keyVal=RYV191FGLYY00
