Property description

Occupying what must be one of the most immediately identifiable locations on the South coast of Cornwall, The Ancient Shipbrokers enjoys unfettered views across Pentewan beach to the open sea beyond, taking in Mevagissey Bay as far as Chapel Point. The slightly elevated position provides privacy as well as views, while being only a moment’s walk from village facilities and the beach. St Austell is around four miles away at the other end of the Pentewan Valley Trail and offers a full range of amenities.

The property is a substantial family home which currently trades as a very successful bed and breakfast ( see www.pentewanbedandbreakfast.com ) and business records will be made available to interested purchasers.

Kept up to date by the present owners, this historic house is in lovely decorative order throughout, is mostly double glazed and is fitted with oil fired central heating. The gardens are a particular feature of the property, especially at the front of the house where they overlook the sea. To the rear, beyond the formal garden area is a further area of uncultivated land offering huge potential for expansion.
