Midsummer Cottage is a detached 1920s family home set in the heart of Poughill, offering far-reaching countryside and coastal views. The house combines period character — exposed floorboards, oak newel posts, open fireplaces — with practical modern touches such as a kitchen/breakfast room, LPG central heating and solar PV. The living room opens onto an extensive composite deck that faces south‑west, creating a generous entertaining space and framed vistas towards the North Cornish coast.
Internally the layout suits family life: two principal reception rooms, kitchen/breakfast area, cloakroom and four bedrooms on the first floor, including an ensuite to the principal bedroom. Solid oak flooring runs through the ground floor and original features remain intact, while the loft is partially boarded and offers storage. Outside there is extensive off‑street parking, a large detached single garage and a private enclosed garden laid mainly to lawn.
There is upside for those seeking additional space: a previously granted (now lapsed) planning consent PA15/03061 indicates potential for extensions and alterations, subject to obtaining fresh permissions. The property is freehold, has no identified flood risk and sits in a very low crime area, making it a secure, long‑term home for a family wanting village life close to Bude.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: broadband speeds are slow, the heating runs on LPG rather than mains gas, and council tax is band E (above average). The lapsed planning consent will need reapplication if extensions are required. Overall this is a well‑presented period cottage with strong indoor‑outdoor appeal and clear potential for sympathetic enlargement.
