Property description
This beautifully presented detached cottage dates back to around 1845 when it was believed to have been built as two cottages. It has been extended in recent years and sympathetically modernised to a high standard throughout in order to benefit from modern luxuries, whilst retaining the inherent character of the property including a stunning marble fireplace in the main lounge. The accommodation is deceptively spacious and comprises an entrance \"snug\", which makes a lovely reading room/telephone room or study. This leads to the light and airy social hub of the home, the farmhouse style kitchen/diner featuring dual aspect light with a window to the front aspect overlooking the gardens and patio doors to the side deck area which enjoys a westerly aspect ideal for evening alfresco dining and summer BBQ's. The kitchen has solid oak flooring and hand made solid wood units along with a large Range style oven. There is a separate utility room with appropriate plumbing and a fitted sink, further rear porch and access to a downstairs WC. The lounge features three south facing windows all overlooking the gardens, the marble fireplace with woodburner and a door to the hidden staircase. Additionally on the ground floor is a further large reception room with its own entrance, which has previously been used as a playroom. It has access to an adjoining ground floor double bedroom with ensuite and these three rooms could be used as a separate annexe either for a dependant relative or with holiday let potential. On the first floor are three bedrooms, the master double room being dual aspect with patio doors to a westerly facing balcony enjoying the evening sun and superb views down through the valley to St Ives. The property is set in a very private position within its own gardens and grounds of approximately 1.5 acres, ideal for anyone looking for a slice of \"the good life\" with space to keep some chickens and grow your own veg! There are three entrance points with ample parking available at all three along with plenty of space to build further garaging or outbuildings. There is also additional land available by separate negotiation.The location is very convenient, as it is fairly central to Cornwall with good access to the A30 and with the nearest beach only approximately 2 miles away.Viewing highly recommended to fully appreciate!
