5 bed detached house for sale

Laflouder Lane, Mullion, Helston TR12

We are advised by our clients that this handsome Edwardian home was built by a ship’s captain, thoughtfully positioned so he could use it as a marker from the sea upon his return home. Set within its own generous plot and surrounded by mature gardens, this imposing home offers a rare opportunity to restore a truly special residence.

Arranged over three floors, the accommodation is exceptionally spacious, featuring five well-proportioned bedrooms, two bathrooms, and three reception rooms, including a spacious dual aspect sitting room, elegant formal dining room and a breakfast room. Additional amenities include a double garage, a utility room, and a garden store/workshop, providing plenty of scope for modernisation and reconfiguration to suit contemporary living.

Now in need of restoration throughout, the house presents an exciting opportunity to create a stunning coastal retreat tailored to your personal taste. Despite its peaceful and private setting, it remains conveniently close to the heart of the village, where a range of amenities, including shops, primary and secondary schooling, and local services, are within easy reach.

A unique chance to create an exceptional home in a sought-after coastal location, blending privacy, history, and fabulous views. Perfect for buyers who love the sea and the outdoors and wish to put their own stamp on their home.
