DESCRIPTION The Boatman’s House forms part of this outstanding gated development of only 9 homes perched on the cliffside of this acutely desirable harbourside town enjoying outstanding and far reaching water and coastal outlooks. The development of Little Meva was undertaken in 2012 on the site of a well known and renowned former boat builders and there is a stunning mixture of new build and conversions which take full advantage of this superb site. Little Meva is approached along the historic East Quay on the harbour through discreet gated access leading into an attractive inner brick paved courtyard.

The accommodation is arranged over three levels and extends to over 1,200sq.ft. in total. To the ground floor is a very good sized double bedroom with adjoining bathroom. In addition, there is a utility room and additional storage cupboard space.

To the second floor are the master and guest bedrooms both with well appointed en-suite shower rooms/wc. The master bedroom takes in the lovely views from the window and Juliet balcony. Outside there is a communal paved entrance area with one allocated parking space and the garage is integral to the main accommodation. Whilst The Boatman’s House could be used as a superb main home or indeed a holiday home the current owners have used the house for a holiday let and enjoyed almost 30 weeks of bookings per annum in recent times. To this end the house is set up to continue with a holiday let basis and all items could be available for additional negotiation.

LOCATION Little Meva is located at the end of East Quay which adjoins a beautiful and historic harbour in this quintessential Cornish fishing town. The homes are on the site of a well renowned former boat builders with the town of Mevagissey deriving much of its historic income from pilchard fishing and smuggling! The current harbour was built on the site of a medieval quay and the inner harbour, consisting of the current east and west quay’s was added to the outer harbour being built around 1888. The port remains one of Cornwall’s few working harbours and this makes the outlook from The Boatman’s House particularly interesting with its everchanging activity. Today Mevagissey is a lovely coastal town combining classic winding harbourside streets with a myriad of shops, galleries, cafes and pubs.

The town offers a range of day to day facilities whilst St Austell offers a more comprehensive selection of business, commercial and schooling facilities. The part of Cornwall has become very popular in recent years with a number of outstanding tourist destinations over and beyond the stunning coastline and beautiful nearby beaches. The Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project are close by and the surrounding National Trust land encompasses some beautiful coastal walking, interesting coves and secluded beaches. The commercial centre of Cornwall is the cathedral city of Truro which is about 17 miles away, there are mainline railway stations at both St Austell and Truro which connects to London Paddington and Cornwall Airport Newquay now offers a decent range of flights domestically and to some international destinations.
