2 bed cottage for sale

Lower Chapel Street, East Looe PL13

Nestled in the heart of the picturesque coastal town of Looe, this charming period cottage offers a delightful blend of traditional character and modern convenience. Tucked away along one of the town's historic lanes and just a few yards from the beach, this two bedroom home is spread across three floors, providing a cosy yet versatile living space that perfectly captures the essence of Cornish coastal living.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a generous living and dining area, where a welcoming fireplace forms a cosy focal point, ideal for those cooler Cornish evenings. The room is rich in character, featuring exposed timber details that add warmth and charm. There is ample space for comfortable seating as well as a family dining table, making it a perfect setting for both relaxing and entertaining. Large windows flood the room with natural light, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere that enhances the cottage's homely feel.

From the living area, you step through to a well equipped kitchen designed with both functionality and character in mind. The kitchen offers generous countertop space and room for free standing appliances, which are available by separate negotiation. A door leads directly onto a decked courtyard, an idyllic outdoor space where you can enjoy a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the peaceful surroundings. The courtyard features a quaint seating area and enough space for al fresco dining or simply unwinding in the fresh air, making it a true extension of the living space during warmer months.

Ascending the stairs from the living and dining area, you arrive at a cosy reception room. This exceptionally versatile space could serve as a snug sitting room, a quiet reading nook, an additional living area, or even an occasional bedroom, adding both flexibility and character to the property. From here, you enter the first bedroom, which is beautifully illuminated by a well positioned window. The thoughtful layout creates a warm and inviting environment, offering a comfortable and practical space to rest and recharge.

Continuing up another flight of stairs, you reach the top floor where the second bedroom awaits. This generous room feels light and airy, thanks to a Juliet balcony that floods the space with natural light and offers charming views over the rooftops of Looe. Exposed beams and a gently sloping ceiling enhance the cottage's character, creating a tranquil retreat. There is ample space for a bed, storage, or a small seating area, making it a wonderfully peaceful place to wake up each morning.

Adjacent to this bedroom is a generously sized bathroom, conveniently located off the landing. The bathroom is well appointed with modern fixtures complemented by classic touches, providing a calming space to relax after a busy day.

The property benefits from gas central heating throughout, ensuring comfort and efficiency all year round.
