Summary - The Coachmans, Lower Market Street PL13 1AX
5 bed 2 bath Cottage
Characterful Victorian home steps from the beach and harbour.
Five bedrooms over three floors, generous living space
A double-fronted Victorian cottage set just yards from Looe’s sandy beach, this five-bedroom home blends exposed stonework and timber beams with recent practical upgrades. The house is arranged over three floors with a large open-plan ground floor, a modern fitted kitchen, and two contemporary bathrooms, making it comfortable for family life or a coastal retreat.
The property benefits from gas central heating, uPVC double-glazed sash windows and a smart boiler with remote controls, helping with everyday comfort and efficiency. Many original features remain visible, including granite walls, exposed beams and vintage tiles, giving clear character and appeal. The accommodation is surprisingly generous for the building footprint, totalling about 1,356 sq ft.
Important considerations are the High flood risk for the immediate area and the very small plot with no private parking—only on-street spaces or rented town car parks are available. The granite walls are assumed to be uninsulated, and ceiling heights are generally low in parts of the house. The property sits within the conservation area, which may restrict external alterations.
This home will suit families wanting quick beach access and characterful living, or buyers seeking a well-presented holiday base in a historic harbour town. Its size, layout and modern services reduce immediate renovation needs, but prospective buyers should factor in flood resilience measures and any conservation-area permissions for changes.
