Property description
Duporth Lodge is a beautifully presented and immaculately finished three bedroom detached former gate house located in the ever popular area of Duporth on the beautiful south coast close to the harbour side village of
Charlestown.
Our clients purchased the property a few years ago in terrible disrepair and have lovingly and painstakingly restored the property to extremely high standards throughout. Great attention has been taken both before and during the restoration project and is today finished to a wonderful standard. The gothic like internal doors coupled with the exposed beams
and solid timber windows fill the property with great character and charm yet provides all the modern luxuries one would expect from a home of this size and value.
Since our clients ownership they have holiday let the property and have enjoyed a high occupancy rate throughout the season. Our clients have a very busy diary of holiday lets for this season and would be happy to sell the property as a going concern or would be happy to negotiate the cancellation of these bookings based on the circumstances of the buyer.
Various accounts and figures available upon request.
