Summary - ORCHARD COTTAGE BODINNICK FOWEY PL23 1LX
1 bed 1 bath Cottage
Charming waterside hideaway with proven holiday income and expansion potential.
Stone cottage with boutique renovation and traditional character
Successful holiday let with established rental income
Approved planning for dormer and permanent attic access (PA15/11359)
One double bedroom plus small attic sleeping space (ladder access)
EPC rating F; electric storage heating only
Council tax charged as non-domestic (business rates apply)
Very slow broadband — limits long-term remote working
Sunny front terrace and private elevated garden with harbour views
A beautifully renovated granite cottage at the entrance to the historic Hall Walk, Orchard Cottage combines authentic character with boutique finishes. The sitting room with an inglenook and wood burner and the stylish shaker kitchen with underfloor heating create a high-spec, compact living space ideal for short-term letting or a pied‑à‑terre by the water.
The property currently operates successfully as a holiday let, generating a healthy income through Boutique Retreats. Planning permission (PA15/11359) is already approved to add a front dormer and install paddle stairs to provide permanent, compliant access to the attic room and a fire escape, increasing usable floor area and rental flexibility.
Practical matters to note: accommodation is effectively one double bedroom plus a small attic room (occasional sleeping space currently accessed by ladder). Heating is by electric storage heaters and the EPC rating is F. Broadband speeds are very slow and council tax is charged as non-domestic (business rates), both factors that may affect long-stay occupancy or remote working.
Externally, there is a sunny paved terrace to the front and a surprisingly private grassed garden a short walk up Hall Walk with harbour views — a valuable guest amenity. The property is freehold and not at flood risk; its historic construction (pre‑1900 granite walls) retains charm but limits wall insulation options without specialist works.
