The property
Picturesque Mevagissey is an historic fishing port where narrow winding streets filled with interesting shops, cafes and restaurants, centre around a bustling working harbour.
On either side of Mevagissey are sheltered bays and sandy beaches.
To the north is Pentewan Sands and to the south the quieter beach at Portmellon.
About half a mile from the village centre, overlooking a grassy common and with magnificent, panoramic vistas is the aptly named Sea View.
Inside, Sea View has been modernised to create a bright and stylish home with a nautical theme.
On the ground floor, a huge picture window fills the length of house lounge/kitchen/diner with light and is perfect for admiring the view.
Also on this level are two bedrooms which share a family bathroom; a twin with sea views and a bunk room.
On the first floor the large double bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and spectacular time-wasting views out to sea.
At the rear of the house is a sunny, enclosed patio garden - a real suntrap and for young families there is a small children's play area on the common.
