Summary - Harbour View, Porthleven, Helston, Cornwall TR13 9JN
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Chain-free Victorian cottage with uninterrupted marina outlook and easy maintenance.
3 bedrooms with principal living room overlooking Porthleven harbour
Set on the Porthleven waterfront, this three-bedroom Victorian stone cottage delivers genuine coastal character and panoramic harbour views. The principal living room faces the water and fills with natural light through large windows, creating an uplifting social space for family life or a seaside retreat. Offered chain free, the property is well presented throughout and sits within an average-sized internal footprint (circa 894 sq ft).
Practical strengths include double glazing (installation date unknown), fast local broadband, very low local crime and no recorded flood risk. The property runs on an LPG boiler with radiators and is freehold; council tax is described as affordable. The house sits on a small plot with a low-maintenance rear courtyard garden rather than a larger lawn — easy to manage but limited for outdoor activities.
Buyers should note the building dates from the early 20th century and the original granite or whinstone walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation, which may affect heating costs despite double glazing. There is one family bathroom and classic period layouts, so scope for modernising or reconfiguring exists but may require investment. For families wanting coastal lifestyle or buyers seeking a lock-up-and-leave retreat close to shops, harbour and schools, this provides immediate charm with clear potential to personalise.
