GENERAL COMMENTS
The Old Rocket Barn is a gorgeous and completely unique single storey property which is situated in the heart of Portscatho just metres away from the Square, the Plume of Feathers and the harbour.
The property also has parking for two cars and a bedroom annexe provides a second bedroom which also comes with planning permission to develop further into an independent annex, ideal for letting or for guests.
THE PROPERTY

There is an open plan living space incorporating a kitchen, dining area and lounge with doors opening onto the south west facing private landscaped garden.
