Land for sale

Mount Pleasant Road, Porthleven TR13

Situated in one of the most sought-after locations within the Cornish fishing village of Porthleven, in an area known locally as Breageside, this self-build plot represents a rare opportunity. The plot benefits from planning permission for a one-bedroom, single-storey holiday dwelling, a true rarity within the village.

The approved accommodation is designed to comprise an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, shower room, and one bedroom. Externally, the plot is accessed via steps leading down from Beacon Road and offers a pleasant decked area, ideal for outdoor seating and enjoyment.

Porthleven is a thriving seaside Cornish fishing village with its large harbour providing a focal point. Around this cluster many pubs, restaurants and businesses. The village provides amenities to cater for everyday needs as well as a primary school, whilst the more comprehensive amenities of Helston are a few miles distant and these include national stores, cinema and sports centre with indoor swimming pool.

Located between Helston and Porthleven is the beautiful Penrose Estate, managed by The National Trust, with its many walks and trails through the Cornish countryside around Loe Pool which is Cornwall's largest natural fresh water lake. Porthleven has a prize winning Brass Band which, on many a summer’s Sunday evening, can be heard echoing around the village, creating atmosphere and ambience for both residents and visitors.
