3 bed terraced house for sale

Daglands Road, Fowey PL23

Some houses are simply about square footage. This one is about a life, and the life on offer here is Fowey's, which is to say one of the very best on the Cornish coast.

Tucked just a short stroll from the heart of town, this handsome Victorian townhouse has that rare quality of feeling instantly like home. Step through the front door and the original mosaic-tiled hallway sets the tone, a house with history, cared for and loved. Wooden floors and panelled doors carry that character through two generous reception rooms, each warmed by its own gas stove, perfect for the evenings when the sea mist rolls in and you simply don't want to leave.

The kitchen is where this house really comes alive - solid maple worktops, a five-ring range, and French doors that fling open onto your own private courtyard. Morning coffee out here, the town waking up around you, is about as good as it gets.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom looks out towards the harbour. Wake up to the masts, the gulls, the light bouncing off the water. A second generous double shares that same view, while the third bedroom opens via its own balcony straight onto the access to the garden, which climbs in tiers up the hillside behind the house. Each level catches the sun at a different time of day, right up to a sweet, fully insulated summerhouse with power and light - office, studio, or simply your own quiet corner of Fowey.

It's easy to see why the current owners have run it so successfully as a holiday let. This is a house that guests fall for again and again, and one that would slip just as easily back into life as a family home, or continue on as a rewarding investment for its next owner.

And then there's the town itself. If you are a keen sailor, the sailing on the river here is second to none! Fowey is home to two sailing clubs and a Regatta that fills the streets every August alongside award-winning restaurants tucked down cobbled lanes, boutique hotels, and a beach and coastal path both an easy walk from your door. Getting further afield is refreshingly easy too. The Eden Project is fifteen minutes by car, golf courses are close by, and mainline trains to London Paddington run from nearby Par and St Austell, with flights from Newquay for those who need to travel further still.

This is a house that gives you Fowey, properly, and on your doorstep. Offered freehold, with no onward chain, and a track record as a much-loved holiday let, it's ready for whoever falls for it next
