Agent Notes
Due to the age and construction of the property, a mundic test has been undertaken. The property has been assigned to a class not normally accepted as security for a mortgage, so it will only be available to cash buyers. Various improvements since the EPC was carried out mean a new EPC would likely show a better rating.

On entering Polperro we would suggest parking in the main car park and walking to the property. As you leave the car park proceed towards the harbour and the property can be found on the left just after the Claremont Hotel and the Mermaid.
