Bay-windowed reception with period features and high ceilings
Long lease (approx. 184 years) and very low Council Tax Band A
Sheltered rear courtyard; outbuilding currently in need of repair
Compact one-bedroom layout; total area approximately 361 sq ft
Dated kitchen and bathroom; requires modernisation and redecoration
Electric room heaters only; EPC E (46) indicates lower energy efficiency
Shared maintenance arrangements; roof reportedly maintained by first floor

This compact ground-floor period flat sits on Peverell Road in picturesque Porthleven, offering easy access to the harbour, shops and local amenities. The reception room features a bay window and period details that give the home character and a bright street-facing aspect. A sheltered rear courtyard provides private outdoor space—rare for flats at this price point.
Practical positives include a long remaining lease (circa 184 years), very low council tax (Band A) and no local flood risk. The apartment is best suited to someone downsizing, seeking a lock-up-and-leave coastal base, or an investor looking for a small holiday or rental unit in a popular seaside village.
The property is dated and will need updating: the kitchen, bathroom and general decoration require modernisation to reach contemporary comfort and efficiency. Heating is by electric room heaters and the EPC rating is E (46), so energy costs will be higher than for modern gas-heated homes. The rear outbuilding and courtyard show signs of damp and require repair and basic waterproofing.
There are shared maintenance arrangements between the two flats in the building and a pedestrian right of way to the rear; the first-floor neighbour is believed responsible for the roof. These communal responsibilities and the leasehold status should be reviewed before purchase. Overall, this is a small, characterful seaside flat with clear potential for uplift for a buyer prepared to invest in modernisation.
