Summary - The Old Rocket Barn Rear Of, Wellington Terrace, Portscatho TR2 5HN
3 bed 1 bath Not Specified
Charming three-bed village cottage with parking, garden and sea views — ideal holiday let or bolt‑hole.
Approximately 485 sq ft compact three-bedroom cottage
Tucked back from Portscatho’s centre, this petite three-bedroom cottage combines coastal character with rare village conveniences: a small front garden, a courtyard and an acquired parking space directly in front. The property is light and airy, with sea and coastal views from the main and third bedrooms and a compact, practical layout that suits holiday use or village living.
Currently run as a holiday home, the cottage offers immediate income potential and can be sold furnished to continue letting with bookings (subject to negotiation). Practical outbuildings include a rear store/workshop and outside W/C, useful for storage and letting turnover. The property is freehold, detached, double-glazed and was constructed in the 2007–2011 period, giving relatively modern fabric and insulation.
Important practical points are straightforward: the house is small (about 485 sq ft) with a single bathroom and modest rooms, so it suits buyers seeking a coastal bolt-hole, a holiday-let investment, or downsizers rather than those needing extensive living space. Broadband speeds are slow despite excellent mobile signal. The listing mentions electric underfloor heating as main heating, though earlier text refers to oil – this should be clarified before purchase. EPC Band D and moderate council tax reflect typical village running costs.
Portscatho village amenities are within easy walking distance: sandy beaches, coastal walks, cafés, restaurants (including the Hidden Hut and Boathouse), shops, a doctors’ surgery and community facilities. The immediate location offers very low crime, pleasant village life and outstanding coastal scenery — strengths that support holiday letting and long-term desirability, balanced against the property’s compact size and limited internal space.
