Charming Grade II cottage steps from Port Isaac harbour and amenities.
Grade II listed two-bedroom granite cottage with original features
Sunny Corner is a Grade II listed two-bedroom Cornish cottage tucked down a cobbled lane, recently renovated to retain original character. Exposed stone walls, beamed ceilings, slate floors and an original fireplace combine with a modern shaker kitchen and a stylish bathroom to give period charm with contemporary comforts. The cottage is freehold and currently operates successfully as a holiday let, making it appealing to buyers seeking a ready-made income stream or a lock-up-and-leave coastal base.
Practical points are plain: the cottage is small (circa 575 sq ft) and built before 1900 from granite with assumed no cavity insulation, so it will not perform like a modern build. Heating is by electric room heaters and a wood-burning stove; the EPC is F. The property has Grade II listed status which preserves historic features but will complicate alterations or extensions and may increase repair costs.
Location is a genuine asset — a sunny south-facing slate courtyard faces the street and the harbour, boutique shops, cafés and restaurants are moments away. Note the site is in an area of high flood risk; prospective buyers should check flood cover and seaside-resilience measures. Broadband and mobile signal are average to slow, and the layout is traditional and compact rather than open-plan family living.
For an investor or buyer seeking a characterful coastal hideaway, Sunny Corner offers immediate charm and lettings history. For owner-occupiers it is best suited to those who prioritise location and period features over modern space and high thermal efficiency.
