3 3 Beautifully fitted, well appointed kitchen with granite worksurfaces. Terraced, lawned gardens with sea views. At the end of a no-through lane. Beautifully presented and a fantastic opportunity to purchase either a main or second home and in our opinion, priced with absolute realism. Properties such as Pretoria situated in villages as sought after as Coverack do not often come to the open market for sale and as such, we whole heartedly recommend an early viewing to avoid disappointment. LOCATION Pretoria is found right in the very heart of Coverack and within walking distance of the village, seafront and beach. Coverack is a lovely old classic Cornish fishing village offering a good range of amenities catering for most day to day needs including a sub post office and general store, The Paris Inn, The Bay Hotel, a restaurant and fish and chip shop in the old life boat station and various cafés. The beach and harbour are the centre of day to day life, being perfect for children and dogs to play and ideal for a number of water sports. This is a much loved and exceptionally unspoilt part of south Cornwall, offering awe inspiring cliff tops walks on the Cornish coast path to idyllic sandy beaches, smaller coves, unspoilt countryside and verdant wooded valleys and glades. It is an area of Cornwall largely untouched by the passage of time with much of the countryside and coastline owned by the National Trust and designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

4 4 The nearby and world famous Helford River and its creeks are of enormous interest to sailing enthusiasts as they offer a safe mooring and anchoring for larger yachts as well as providing a perfect environment to learn the ropes, before venturing out to Falmouth Bay. The neighbouring village of St Keverne has a good range of village shops, newsagents, a butchers, two inns and a village hall. The market town of Helston lies approximately 11 miles away and offers a wide range of shopping and commercial facilities including college education, a full range of local and national retailers, supermarkets and sporting facilities. Pretoria is currently used as a respected holiday letting investment property having garnered an enviable reputation over the years. We have included a selection of recent reviews to provide an idea of Pretoria s reputation amongst guests. Super cottage in great location.
