It boasts stunning views of the coast is is currently used as a holiday let.

In its sale brochure estate agents The Mather Partnership describe the home as a “quaint character cottage situated in an enviable position”.

It adds: "The property which is one of the most well known dwellings within the village due to its unusual size boasts a stunning vista from the front elevation with direct harbour, clock tower, beach and extensive sea views framed by the Lizard Peninsula in the backdrop.

"Of course, upon entering the cottage you will find yourself equally enamoured as the bijou yet welcoming rooms provide a snug, warm feel."

Thought the price seems steep it is dwarfed by the £700,00 that a tiny London home has just sold for.

The property in Chelsea is just 8ft 6in wide and has only 290sq ft of floor space.

Nevertheless it sold for more than £100,000 over the asking price after hitting the market for the first time in 50 years.

More than 100 people viewed the “gem” property on desirable Britten Street.
