Nicely positioned within a well-regarded cul-de-sac, this detached three bedroom bungalow enjoys a delightful setting just moments from the waterside and amenities of the creekside village of Gweek.

The outlook extends beyond neighbouring properties towards Gweek Boatyard and the woodland beyond, while a patio area provides the perfect spot to sit out and unwind. With oil-fired central heating and cavity wall insulation, this is a lovely, cosy, bungalow tucked away within a quiet cul de sac and a lovely place to be able to call home.
