| Description | Berkeley Lodge is a spacious four bedroom bungalow which sits on an elevated plot some 300 feet above sea level, looking out towards St Michaels Mount and across to Penzance Harbour. Attached to the main property is a good size 2-bedroom annexe with both internal and external access to suit individual needs as either one large family home or separate accommodation for a dependant relative or income from holiday letting. The property sits in approximately ¾ of an acre plot with a southerly aspect towards the sea and with a static caravan (on a separate title) located on the opposite side of the plot to the main bungalow and annexe. The property offers a tremendous amount of potential to develop what is existing at present or to look at the whole plot changing into a multiple dwelling site (subject to the necessary planning permissions).

| . | The sitting room has an open fire with French doors leading out onto a paved patio area, which would be ideal for alfresco dining and a delight in summer taking in the glorious sea views on offer. Berkeley Lodge, as mentioned previously, has 4 double bedrooms with 2 of them providing en-suite facilities and the master bedroom a dressing room which looks out over the garden. The majority of the bedrooms in the main house enjoy stunning coastal views from the large picture windows. .
|
| . | The annexe has its own independent access and therefore would be suited for those needing to provide accommodation for a dependant relative, or equally suited for income by holiday letting. Alternatively, the internal access allows the property to be made into an extended family home providing 6 bedrooms should this be required. The sitting room in the annexe has large French doors, which are seaward facing and allow ample natural light to flow into the room and take in the stunning coastal views.
|
| . | The property is approached via a long driveway which leads to an extensive parking area to the rear allowing parking for multiple vehicles. The front garden itself is of a generous proportion and features a range of mature plants and shrubs with a historical listed feature in the front corner of the plot called the 'Needle and Cradle'. This interesting folly was once part of Kenegie Manor and although the date of structure is unsure it is believed to be area where the property owners at the time were responsible for the protection of St Michaels Mount in an age against Spain and France. All in all this wonderful coastal property has some of the most outstanding views from its elevated position and has the luxury to suit a multitude of buyers from those looking for great sea views from a lovely family home with the possibility of income potential if required as well as the possibility of further development.
